Go find a Hellcat to beat up on.

Anyhow, good luck with your build and stay safe.

Close enough HP, a fair target to reach with some bolt-on's. But I know, at the end of the day, engine won't sound the same, feel won't be the same, forward visibility won't be the same, etc.

So in some ways, I kinda know where squid is coming from, but I also understand what tigger is saying. it will always be Apple vs Orange, won't ever be the same.

Best of luck with the build
Both great points! I hear that the Z is a poor man's Porsche, alot. I was just poking back. Nothing too serious,
