That I would think of as cool.

no variable vane turbo - only car i can think of off the top of my head with that is the 911 turbo. would be nice, though!

back on topic .....
i always kinda liked the WS6, because Camaros are too dime-a-dozen. i don't know how the stock braking is on those cars, but starting with suspension and brakes is a good way to go, having lots more power and torque than an SVX and weighing the same or a little more. post up some pics of the bandit, and also of your progress growing a magnificent mullet.....

Eh, it's not a bandit.. it's a '98.



The brakes do kinda suck but I think it's only relative because it gets going a lot faster.
