    2010 Camaro SS tempting

    I did read a review of all 3 pony cars from Motor Trend and even if the Mustang with the track package did out handle the SS by a hair.....they still rated the SS as the best pony car.......so literally I think it is personal preference between looks of the SS and the Mustang Track Package in...

    SRI&TIP + oil change = no warranty??

    I just keep questioning and pondering why the SRI/TIP made the turbo leak that much oil (shrug) and yes I already miss the added noise and power from the SRI/TIP.....I went down the interstate with a frown on my face as I heard not a peep from the turbo spooling....I need it to start smoking so...

    SRI&TIP + oil change = no warranty??

    Well it was definitely blue smoke yesterday when I noticed it billowing out the back and it wreaked of burned oil....a normal amount of white today when I let it run so I am guessing just the condensation of the air
