Damn that's a sexy ride.. I like the Red one, but needs a small drop.

My brothers 07' I know was quick.. but that has a lot more HP

lol the front spline would shatter at that power. The AWD system on a tbss is a ghetto rig afterthought. after the front diff there is a spline that is filled with grease instead of fluid and it heats up and breaks.
Good to know the General was looking out for us. :dunce: You would think someone could upgrade the system.

Someone wanted to do a solid front axle. But, since the front drive shaft on the tbss goes through the friggin oil pan that makes it tough.

I would not buy the SRT8 but I bet it's a blast to drive.

That is a review from a guy who races all kinds of fast cars. Interesting read.

Not a fan of the scoops in the hood...

I have the same tranny (an ancient Merc 5 speed) so I have a similar powertrain with this beast. :jester:

You know what though? That stupid 5spd lasted a lot longer than GM's 4l70e has.
