I think the draw on those (hi po shoved in fwd) is effortless power and point and shoot ability in conditions typical of that encountered by the car buying public. |

Those cars still have road presence but outside of looks and sound need a lot of work to keep up with Camry in the next lane. At the very least, if you are going to dump money into a car, they are cool candidates. |

I tend to prefer older GM makes from the 70s, but gas is so fucking expensive here I can't see driving one.

The one I test drive has nearly 0 torque steer from a dead stop and hauled all the way to 100 very quickly.

It's in the torque converter. From my experience, the hydramatics tend to have a lower stall speed than the Jap counterparts. I'm not sure if it's a design issue with the Jap stuff tho.
