:naughty: I like.

I like it too. :biggrin:

And yet the XLR is a bit of a slouch losing out to Jaguar XK8's and Mercedes-Benzes in straight line dogfights. Bummer that the supercharged Northstar can't keep pace with its "antiquated" stablemates.

^ supercharged? :nono:

its the same 4.6 northstar, just longitudely (sp?) mounted

Oops, my mistake. It was the Evoq concept that was supercharged, not the production XLR.

well, for now at least? :naughty:

we can hope!

That car is gonna need some serious rubber to keep it from killing the occupant

That is pretty sweet, (I think)

Looks pretty damn good. Wouldn't mind getting my hands on one.
