WI: I Spotted a Mazda Thread

Black 1st gen MS3 heading East on Layton from 35th st., two different days last wk., around 7:20 am or so.
 
Black speed6 parked next to a blue challenger at miller park just over the railing as we walked into TGIF, wonder who that could be.

Hmm... i wonder? lol, yea thats my boss and I, wasn't super impressed with the challenger when i rode in it, but then again its the v6 version, but it is quiet and smooth, but not something i would want in a "muscle" car.

They have v6 challengers??what a waste lol.

Figured since I wasn't finding any game tickets at a "kid friendly" price that I'd just take the kids to eat at Fridays so they could sit outside and get the "stadium feel".
Ended up dropping $140 in the club shop on bulls*** anyways ftl.
 
haha that sucks, btw if you ever see anything you want i get a 60% discount you can feel free to take advantage of! and yeah i made fun of him for buying the v6 (also less HP and torque than a stock speed6) but i do like the paintjob on his but that was a good choice going to fridays its a neat environment and cool for the kids to see the stadium especially since the grounds crew was probably out there working on it

Go to Dodge's site, 2010-12 v6's are 300ish lol

My mustang comment was directed at Carl.
 
I pulled it up off of car and driver, i usually hate company websites my work internet is slow slow all the graphics and moving crap bogs it down but i'll take a look
http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/car/10q1/2010_dodge_challenger_se_v6-short_take_road_test

I am looking at the dodge site and it says 305 HP with 268 torque, i wonder if they upgraded it a bit or why car and driver would be different, either way not for me and a horrible blind spot where the back window would be

How is this relevant? I wasn't comparing it to my ms6 nor did I ever claim mine was quick did I?
Buying the gto may have caused your balls to swell a little bit finally having some hp under your belt, but it doesn't mean we all have that mentality lol.
But you are right....it probably will smoke my ms6, but then again I didn't buy it with the intent of being faster than retro muscle cars.
