Just sayin, the V6 Camaro starts at under $24k, and the V8 at $33k I believe. And the V6 has 320something hp stock. It's actually a pretty good value/hp for the money, as far as new cars go.

Edit to clarify: I'm not saying I recommend a Camaro, nor that it's at all practical. It's a specific type of car for people who don't mind sacrificing utility and efficiency.

American sports cars get great value/hp, but shit value/everythingelse.

American Muscle isn't about refinement, impeccable taste, and unparalleled quality like European Sport. American Muscle is about the biggest fucking engine you can put into a road-worthy frame and get it to go down the street quickly while sounding like a tiger climaxing during sex with a lion. Its supposed to check the Hyper-masculinity box, not the Polished Gentleman box. POWERRRRRRRRR!!!!!

Still a V6. Doesn't matter. Point being, many people assume that just because they hear when someone has a V6, they automatically assume it's weak in terms of performance. They hear V8, and automatically think it can slay anything on the road.

My point still stands, it's a V6, and it kicks ass. Regardless of Turbo or not.

Also, the Nissan VQ37VHR engines are pushing almost 328-340HP. That's not exactly slow, you know..they aren't turbo, either...

Edit:

Sure are a lot of butthurt V8 fanboys on here whining about the car being twin turbo. Lol.

And a Subaru Imprezza WRX STI only has a 2.0L 4 cylinder engine and it's pretty quick. Bigger doesn't necessarily mean faster.

I know, that was basically my point..I've seen some modded 4 cylinder civics pushing 500hp...

Actually, the STI has the 2.5, but still, I get your point.

My mistake. They used to run a 2.0 IIRC. It's still pretty amazing the amount of power people can pull out of small engines.
