Default 03Vette Vs 65 Coup

The other day I was going down the road and one of those 03 Corvettes pulled up beside me at a stop light. Those cars, I've heard, have like 450hp so when the light turned green we both floored it and I beat him to the next light. Which was like a mile away where I turned. I don't know how much HP my car has but I sure would like to know.

only the top of the line Z06 has that much, and I believe that is at the fly wheel.

Yes, that 289 would be like a Civic Vs Corvette. NO CHANCE!!!
