That may be true for one, two, or a handful of individual cars, but that isn't going to be everybody else's experiences/observations. Which are going to mostly be pure stock turbo-4's with stock tune and everything that goes with that.


I fear that sometimes the costs of early success come before the wisdom to recognize them . . . and what I've been reading lately here isn't reflecting well on Teslas and things Eco.

The 2.0 will be the best seller, & someone will be in the 12s, within a month after they hit the street...

You and I both know there were other factors at play than just, "I'd rather have a v6 jeep than a mustang".
i was giving a example of someone who was looking at a 4 cylinder mustang.

I bought a camaro years ago because performance was one of the important factors to me. I was also looking at a 370z, and GT mustang. I wasnt looking at a v6 jeep because that car is in no way even close to a performance car.

I dont think many guys who care about performance are going to cross shop a v6 jeep. you took my statement the wrong way is what happen.
