Hope the block and heads aren't some thin casting POS!
Geez, even Hundai has some 375 HP made in Korea engine. What's this world coming too?
American cars are no longer the pinnacle of design and technology. We have some serious work to do to catch up with Europe and Asia.

I'm sure I will catch some heat for this, but it's true. They have been building better passenger cars for 20 or 30 years and better performance in many cases for the last 10 or so.

I'm no foreign car lover, I just know when to call a spade a spade.
