Think about it - if I have to tell anybody that my car has a V8, what's their opinion worth? Is it worth my time chasing it?
Apparently for you, a car featuring about 1000 lbs of its own weight per liter of engine displacement is entirely satisfactory, and that's fine for you. Just don't expect everybody else to feel the same way about having family sedan-ish weight to power in their 'toys' or 'fun cars'. Try stepping outside yourself at least far enough to recognize that there are people who'd rather have cars that are even more relaxed in maintaining a normal street driving pace.

Norm I don't know what you're driving but your picture looks like it's something fairly slow what's that old Beast doing 0 to 60 in my friend. I don't even know what this conversation has to do with you I bet you I can take that Mustang it with my 6 cylinder and I bet you it handles horribly. But I do stand by what I said if you're spending an extra $10,000 to get the V8 I surely do hope you use it. Because to me and everyone has an opinion Norm even though you like to go and cherry pick what you're trying to post here but it's okay you're backing up your bro. But to me 0 - 60 and 5.1 seconds is enough for the street. I would appreciate it Norm if you're going to continue on this thread can you post up your car specs cuz if you're going to talk you might as well talk about what you drive
