Just starting to read the article and the first paragraph in the "performance" section says this:

"Our best 0-60 was 5.0 seconds for the Mitsubishi Evolution, followed by the Subaru WRX STi at 5.1. Both beat the Corvette small block powered GTO, which takes 5.3 seconds to 60...."


"The quarter mile king is the STi, with a 13.35-second, 102.58 run, edging out the heavier, more powerful Jaguar XJR (13.58/106.81)" a fine testament to Tom Vaught as he works on that program. "The GTO comes in forth, with with numbers of 13.62/104.78."


LOL

How does Pontiac expect to sell these again?

Let's see:

They get worse gas milage.
They don't look anywhere near the part.
They're slower.
They're more expensive to ensure.
They're more dangerous in the hands of an average driver (rear wheel drive vs all wheel).
They cost more.

Yeah, I need one......

You tell 'em I'm comin' and Hell's comin' with me, ya hear? Hell's comin' with me!
