For now, though, all the LS9 engines will be built and hot-tested at the Performance build center in Wixom, MI

:eek4: I must get a tour of this place.

than that is just sad. 100hp per litre WITH a blower is pathetic if that is the most they could squeeze out of it.

i think the car looks badass

although, i personally think it looks a little bit too busy with all those vents. the front fender vent should be one vent.... the one underneath the door handle should be gone or made a lil more flush.

Werd.....plus honestly, why would you need more than 600 hp for a street car.

I'd be happy with 400.......even 300.

I just like busting his balls

I think the car is extremely pretty, except I am not an uber fan of the fender ducts but I'll live. Especially at the price I am sure this thing will be offered at.
