Not very quick at all. High 15s in the 1/4 mile.

I think it looks tight lowered. However I do agree its a bit expensive with the price tag nearing $50K. But all in all, its a nice looking convertible pickup. My for the day

I sat in one with the top down a couple weeks ago. Pretty hot cars. Not bad inside either, seats seemed pretty comfy.

Something like that should also come in a stickshift though...

Just wait they will probably re-release the camaro as a front-drive coupe as well... even though the current trend is headed back to rear-drive platforms. Domestic cars get it all wrong.

Nasty.
I'll tell you what'd look good though... a highly metallic purple gloss paint with an airbrushed picture of Jesus in the hood of the car. Oh and gold trim all over. And a p-rican midget inside to control the hydraulics.

I dont like the style of them, and considering its 50gs and still slow, and a supercharger is 7,000, that is almost 60 gs for a pretty quick ugly heavy truck imo.

I thought those had the Vette motor in them. It's a V8 isn't it? Looks like my big toe.
