plus - lots of horsepower for the money
negatives
- you'll never have power rear windows, so the chicks in the backseat are still gonna laugh at you
- they improved the chasis/suspension by making it stiffer. So it's not really better... just stiffer. It doesn't have a lot of travel to work with, not the best pickup points for locating the wheel along it's travel...On the plus side, it'll look groovy, when, by the time you actually get it to handle really well, it'll always park with one wheel in the air on uneven ground.
actually, those are the two things that would really annoy the hell out of me. They're loud (which I know you kids just love these days :P), but I don't think they look THAT bad... just a bit outdated. Drop the trunk trophy for something reasonable, and put on some nice wheels and they look nice.
I just think for the money, you can still do better, if maybe not faster.
