pockmark Report post Posted June 14, 2006 Thats why you should always learn to properly drive a car before you take it to the limit. If your a moron and get into a car like a CGT or FGT, you WILL crash it. If you are properly taken through the steps on how to drive it to the limit, you will be more comfortable with driving it hard when you want to.

ggleventis Report post Posted June 15, 2006 I think it is great that Chevrolet's "Plastic mess-06" and Stingray and Ford's "GT" are raising the performance bar. All it will do is force Lamborghini to build even faster cars. It is a win-win for everyone. Even suv's have 400 + hp now. I say let the horsepower wars begin ! hb Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

markr Report post Posted February 23, 2007 It also has pictures . . . http://www.autoblog.com/2007/02/22/shippin...orvette-ss-pic/ We've just learned that EMO TRANS, the shipping company that was hired by General Motors to transport a POS SS mule to Germany for testing on the Nurburgring, has fired the employee who took pictures of the vehicle and posted them on the internet. In addition, the unnamed employee has been taken to jail, though we don't know what charges have been filed against him. For our part, we've removed the pics from Autoblog for fear of GM's wrath. The automaker has been reportedly approaching various sites all day requesting the images be removed, so rather than waiting for the phone to ring we've gone ahead and taken them down. This clearly illustrates how seriously GM is taking the development of the POS SS, as well as how utterly embarrased and apologetic EMO TRANS must be for the actions of its employee. It's all fun and games on our side of the fence because we got to see some real, informative shots of this very special POS, but it reminds us that there's a lot of money on the line. We're sure that GM didn't appreciate pics of this powerplant were available for every other automaker to peruse. Lesson learned, though harder for some than others. We'll keep you updates as more concrete and verifiable info becomes available. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
