How does everyone feel about this brave new world?
Ecoboosts making around our power stock.
V6s making close to our bolt on amounts.
And well bolt on 5.0s are just mean.
But I pose a question to everyone.
Are we still content?
I had a discussion today at my friend's speed shop as he was installing my gears.
And I qoute
"The 3V GT is already becoming the new 2V.
People look down on them because of the vast range of cars with more HP. Granted you still make some good torque. But what are you 40-50lbs higher than a V6?"
We talked on that for a while actually. I argued the 2v built right would still outrun most new cars, due to the sheer lack of weight.
The 3v was still a contender, modded of course.
When he mentioned, what happens when the Base models start taking out bolt on GTs?
Just wanting a polite debate here, I'd like to see how everyone feels.
Because I fear it may be a matter of time when perhaps the new base model camaro/mustang will eat a mildly bolt on GT.
Then again money talks..
Thoughts?
Opinions?
