Here is another thing to keep in mind. On a 2v modular motor, it averages approximately 60 dollars PER 1WHP.

Tourqe, RWHP were its advantages but the Grand Sport walked the dog on the GT500... I guess that would be a good scenario for not having the right combo of things needed to put the HP to the ground..
The vette only weighs what 2900 or though? And the gt500 ways 3400+ doesnt it?

^ I think similar numbers in weight...the GT500 needs a damn salad in my opinion.
