rchandler9...I would not call it wrecked but damaged in transit ! I understand your sentiment but I would have had them fix it and taken the car for 10% off and would have gone as low as 5% rebate...Too late now but C8 is no alternative if you want manual and interior V8 sound ! Try one of the...

The C6Z51 with the 430 horse LS3 was a preet good car but the C5Z06 was sportier , more fun to drive and felt more raw like a real sports car despite its squeaky cheap interior where the C6 had a interior not worth writing home about either.The C6Z06 was a snap-oversteer car that tried to kill...

Please explain to me why this planet saw climate change as times of heat or cold long before people drove evil ICE cars ? And why should we drive expensive and boring government mandated electric vehicles and spend most of our lives charging these low range vehicles when on top of it they emit...

I wonder why Ford went to two throttle bodies since the "500" horse Coyote in the DH does not make any more power than the 25 less on paper single throttle body Coyote in the Mach 1 ?

The DH because of the Tremec and M2 are the only survivors if it comes to semi affordable , practical daily driven drvers cars or even sports cars with a manual...The M2 is probably the funnest because of tossable platform and strong torquey engine . The Mustang has the better sound as in V8...

I think these new M2's stick out like sharks in a sea of fish...Definitely not me too...LOL Only thing missing...V8 sound !

407cid...I currently dont have a Mustang but drive a Challenger WB 6-spd but I love V8 powered cars ! As Camaro,Challenger,Charger and Corvette have vacated the premises as far as 90 degree crankshaft real V8's emitting that beautiful sound of music with a manual goes to Team Mustang as the lone...

They should not leak...I would move the clamps flush with the end of the pipes and see if this solves the problem...The mufflers have condensation drain holes put the pipes should be tight if manufactured and installed right...Have a mufflershop check it !

The last Corvette that was fun to drive and felt like a true sports car was the C5Z06...I loved that car despite its garbage bag interior.The C6Z06 looked good but it could not handle the power and could swap ends without warning and the engines could drop a valve any time.C7 looked bad and the...

Try one and you will see it is a cruiser and not a drivers car that you can shift , hear the engine inside , that loves to rev and can be tossed into turns and is fun and playful to do so...Nothing of that in a C8...Only numbers as in decend zero to 100 times because above that it runs out of...

I hear you...I love the looks of my Challenger as much as I love how it drives...The Torque and how it rotates into turns as also the shift feel of the 6060 Tremec... dont think the new 2 door Charger auto only with "BMW" inline-6 is able to replace it ! They still have a few new ones left with...

I hear what ypu are saying but if you use rev match and engine speed is not high enough even if you engage smoothly the rear wheels will cause drag...When you have rev match it should work otherwise you might as well blip the throttle yourself...Love rev match if it works right as you can brake...

You know what you are talking about...The C8 is no sportscar but a comfortable cruiser trying to look like a Ferrari.The SS1LE is very precise and easy to drive unlike any snap-oversteer C6 or C7 Vette but kind of boring as not playful as the LT1 neither feels revvy nor powerful but still more...

No the judder at engagement and 2nd gear scratch are definitely part of the SS1LE experience as also the squeaks and rattles on the inside...Drove me nuts !

BMW and Porsche underrate their hp numbers which is much better than the other way around ! Otherwise it is usually 15% driveline loss to get to the real hp numbers where the rubber meets the road...You can see that a 450 hp 911 Carrera S being faster than a "650" hp Camaro ZL1 ! Of course...

The C7 never felt fast but it is still a little faster than a S550/S650....Less weight and more displacement/Torque !

The difference between advertised crankshaft and real hp a car puts to the ground is usually 15%...Also most dynos lie in order to advertise huge gains...Best is to dyno a car before and after the mod on the same dyno on the same day ! A DH should make around 425 rwhp adverised 500 at the...

You must be a lucky man but if the products were all so great like you say how come they have so many recalls and quality issues…I dont like to sugar coat things and try to say it like it is and that has nothing to do with whining when GM does not do anything about the LS7 valve drop issue or my...

Nothing is worse after spending a lot of money that you are not happy with your purchase…I have been there myself a few times but mostly it was motorcycles…Today I do test drives before I buy in order to prevent costly mistakes but at least you know now for sure new is not necessarily better and...

Quality is definitely not job 1 last time I looked at S650 Mustangs as the panel gaps of the hood towards the fender and front looked better on any korean sheetbox…I remember when I looked at C7 Vettes when they were new they were the worst “quality” I have ever seen…Horrible orange peel ...
