The Dark Side is Calling..

Hmm so the car guzzles more gas, doesn't look as nice, in a few months you'll see one on every block, and last time I checked the speed limit hadn't been raised so unless you plan on tracking the car what's the allure of the huge HP bump? Racing people off of stop lights?

I really don't understand in this day and age why people are still so gaga over horsepower. Anything over 350hp for a daily driver is really unnecessary unless you're on the autobahn.

Sorry just my 2 cents...

Anything over 100HP is really unnecessary for a DD, so, why even get a Z?

I think heavier cars definitely benefit from having more power. Maybe 3,500 lbs. needs 300+ horsepower.

Cars lighter than 3,000 lbs. can make due with 100-200 horsepower, but could use more.
