if i cut off the arms and legs could i pack in two bodies? [img]smile.gif[/img] i remember the time i was in a dealership looking for a 'bird and they showed me how big the trunk was in the taurus. i wanted to ask, "so how many bodies do you think i could get in there?"

as for the switches, saturns have this too. its so they dont have to duplicate a set of controls for the shotgun position i.e. mommy's switches. the switches should be under the drivers control (my door only)!

I wish they'd have made the body style more aggresive to match the beast underneath. It's like a Cobra... it doesn't look as aggressive as the GT.

I think they coulda worked on the cars look a little more. Reminds me of a 97 monte carlo or 2 door lumina. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

How would you rate the interior?

Disappointing 350hp. Dynos are showing 295-305 rear wheel ratings. F-bodies were doing that easy rated at just 305. Commercials are actually pretty cool for the car, only if they could of done that with the F-body.

1 article to even see GTO numbers arent cool. Ya sure drivetrain loss, but GM cars are known to be underrated.

yeah on the 350, it's more accurate than the fbod rating for sure, but hell, if you're gonna bump up your # by 25, go ahead with a lil bumpier cam or something, stay ahead of other 350 hp cars! I heard the irs (instead of our archaic rear end) sucks up some of the suds tho, so maybe it actually does put out more than an fbod. I just think it suffers from what i like to call "celica syndrome" where the wheelwells look too damn small for the car, i mean come on, i'd like to see them closer to the corners and come with like rims 2" bigger. other than that, i like it fine!

Does anyone know if the 05 is going to have the LS2 standard or as an option and for how much more?

I think they could have done better with the exterior design. Interior is great.

But I would rather have the real thing-"Judge."
