Chevy Sleeper

the reason a 'corvette engine" in another car doesn't inpress me, is that they're taking an engine out of a car that I can already beat and putting it in a slower car.

I think you're looking at it from the wrong stand point. It's not about "beating". It's about the state of the modern car manufacturer, and the technology to build this type of modern muscle car while still meeting the absolutely ridiculous government safety and fuel economy mandates and epa requirements requirements.

Forgive me for not gushing about the brilliance of this whole scheme

You are forgiven. Go in piece.

Precisely.


...but the GXP that tried to race me did look pretty nice as it got smaller in my mirror. And the Cobalt SS? Don't make me laugh.

Sorry, I am not into street racing, at all, nor do I condone it.

Again, precisely.
