Wow I'm so surprised I peed myself <not really - I have adult
undergarments>.
Why do you think I used the GLH Turdbo as an example?
Not because I picked it out of a random box of ugly.  It's a classic sleeper
hot-rod sh!tbox.
No need to blah blah blah about the street cred - that's why it's a the
perfect example of Cobalt ancestor (sure Mopar vs. GM if you want to get in
a redneck bar fight... but same same).
I knew a guy who ruled the local autox as well and did all the Turbo II,
lightweight strip-down, etc. over the years.

Sure I love crazy sleeper rides as much as the next guy, but I can only go
so far on ugly and crap-terior... at some point I'll pay to get some
intangibles back.
And I understand for guys who buy the craptastic budget sleeper because
fastest thing thay can afford.

But - and just my opinion - at some point if a car is so ugly and crappily
fitted (aka the Cobavalier) being cheapo-go-fast only goes so far.

The GOOD news is GM is going bankrupt so a good opportunity for them to get
some new blood in design and product management. Unfortunately the
bureautards just shut down the SS performance division in the last few weeks
so in typical style they're wrecking the best good stuff on the way out the
door... >>>



Ruh row...  someone ELSE apparently is taking funny pills here now too.  "Bureautards" - haHA!

Love it - keep up the good werk.  Esp. werk that exhume's a qshipq witty retort... alwayz enjoyed!
