Unless that car already makes sufficient factory HP like the vette does then you have a fast car that lasts for years and years of abuse.

BTW I did all that on stock parts before building my cars up

You're now comparing a new car against a 15-17 y/o car.

Fwiw the 215 HP <$20,000 SN95 4.6 car came out when the C4 vette was only making 300 hp and cost > $37,000

If Justin drove like Ron and myself do, shit would break. And I do recall a bumper cover getting some holes in it.

HP numbers are good and all, but they are like asking someone how much they can bench. What difference does it make if I can still kick your ass?
