Yeah, they're cool cars, but I'm not looking for RWD, and they're a big bulky sedan. I'm looking for more lightweight solutions.

But I agree that they're damn cool cars.

Shado wants a G20 or WS6.

You can get the G8 GXP in a 6 speed. But $$$ as it as the Corvette engine lol

I've decided, whichever car I pick, it's gonna roll on 20" Vossens, like the rest of the cars in this forum section.
