do you even own a Z06?

and i'll continue with my argument that an STI is not roomy. a cadillac deville is roomy...it's also borderline landbarge though.does the STI haveplenty of room for 2 people? yeah, i'll give you that. 4 people? as long as you're not going very far and they're not very big
Yeah, that's his Z06in his signature [8D]

I guess roomy is subjective. For what it is, it's pretty roomy. I've fit 3 friends in mine on plenty of occasions...and the only complaints they have are that it's too loud and it stinks like raw fuel

did the older version of the TB SS not come with a 5.3L(early models) and then the LS2...that may have been what you pulled on???

Hey - the world needs ditch diggers too, fukstik. So don't feel neglected. And as it's been pointed out, I own an STI. It's got plenty of room and has as much truck room as my Altima. And when I need to tow my boat, I have a Ford Explorer. You keep studying for that GED and someday the world will be your osyter.
fukstik? truck instead of trunk? osyter instead of oyster? and I need a GED?? try again suzy, and keep honing those typing skills.

so you own a STI, Altima, and a Ford Explorer? do you even own a Z06?

and i'll continue with my argument that an STI is not roomy. a cadillac deville is roomy...it's also borderline landbarge though.does the STI haveplenty of room for 2 people? yeah, i'll give you that. 4 people? as long as you're not going very far and they're not very big

EDITED - I'm too old to be E*fighting.

i dont think the TBSS ever had a 5.3 in it. i'm pretty sure the concept had the LQ9, but was scrapped at the last minute for the LS2. the regular TB's have the 5.3 available though.




WRX, yeah, i was watching some races a couple weekends ago and there was a STI there that had the same problem.....loud and had the same fuel smell [8D] little thing was QUICK too. he had slips showing mid 11s. he was whopping up on everything out there except for 1 lonely mustang

Just cause a car does a 13 something second quarter mile doesnt mean that when you get it out on the street it will still run that.

When my car was running a 14.8 at its best I beat my friend that was running 13.5. Those were track times, on the street his car never touched my car from 0-100
What the hell are you talking about...your buddy ran a 13.5 and you ran a 14.8..and you say he could never touch your car from 0-100 on the street? That doesn't make any sense...He 1.3 seconds faster than you which will = several car lengths by the time it's all said and done. So according to your math, a WS6 (13.3 sec1/4 mile) Has a chance against a SRT10 Viper (12.0 sec 1/4 mile) from 0-100?
Enh...my sister one day told me (and she was serious) that a pontiac grand am had the fastest 0-30mph of any factory production car...[&:]

I am used to hearing things that make absolutely no sense.

With all this talk of fast trucks, remember the original Hot Rod SUV, the GMC Typhoon from the early 1990s? 4.3 V6, turbocharged and intercooled, AWD, 0-60 in 5.3 stock, many guys are way faster with simple mods. Of course who could forget it's pick-up cousin the Syclone, it was even faster. They were about as aerodynamic as a brick, but would hand you your *** from a dig in a street light race.

Sorry for being slightly off topic, but these old trucks deserve a mention. Ok, carry on....
