Most stickers I've seen aren't worth the 10 or so HP they add because they create drag and you end up actually going slower.

trying to stay away for TRAILERS, but it seems like that might be my only option

There you would be looking at tongue weight. That would be too much for a ZL1 I presume. Of course the traction you would get would be a lot.

The kids across the street from me have anywhere from 15-25 stickers on their Honda's. And from hearing them talk, they are pushing up to 200 hp. So that alone tells me there is something to this logic.

Don't forget their insane camber, fake carbon hoods, shotty tow hooks and yellow lights. Those are all contributors too!

OMG, you must have a camera looking directly at my neighbor...because you described every one of their son's cars, and their friends cars.

Damn rich men making fun of kids, that stuff is functionally cool! I mean clearly it must work because look at the ZL1 1LE, it's got a ricer splitter and front winglets!

I think the hanging bulls balls accessory adds at least 100HP

So I really am liking my A10, but I am starting to regret not getting the A20. Should I have waited?

More than likely the CVT trans from Tesla will outclass it so you probably shouldn't buy anything at all

A20? Great, now I don't know if I should get the A20 or the M10.

The 2018 has cooling and heated sun-visors, along with 7 cup holders for the back seat alone. So just wanted to add to your research and selecting options.

Only 7 cup holders in the back? Yeah, now I'm gonna have to rethink everything.

So, I thought the biggest deal with these cars was the addition of a transmission per wheel...didn't they say that allowed them to get each wheel to turn at an appropriate speed?

So.....A40? M24?

If that is true, I will for sure be getting the A40. I would be absolutely worn out in a M24 just going to the grocery store.
