Funny. You do realize that even without and hp upgrades this is easily over a 100k show car. I just choose to drive it all over. The ZR1 Vett is one of my favorite off the shelf street cars, but they do not do 8second quarter miles. They do not lite the tires up on the highway when already doing 80mph. But if my car disappeared then the insurance would either go to a Vett with twin turbos added, or a 3 year old Ferrari.

bukoo bucks id rather save mine and buy a house and build one just as fast and reliable for half the cost

I built this entire car by myself at home. Body, paint, engine assembly, all the drivetrain, interrior, electrical. The engine with all accessories and fuel injection system and dyno time was $40k. There is over $100k in parts alone in the car. I did not build a $2k rear axle to take 1100hp. I built a $8k rear axle that take 2500hp so I know it will never brake. Same with everything else. My labor is valued at over $150k. $250k car for little over $100k. I have a nice home and 4 car garage :)

Yea. If the cops come by about the driving, then he is officially the driver. lol

this just goes to show how far pontiac has come people may think pontiac is dead but this is living proof that we are here alive and doing better than ever the pontiac traditional v8 engine is in my opinion the greatest and most superior v8 to ever exist

it's a nice ride...but not what i would call a bargan......it's in what you can spend I guess....the average joe doesnt have 100.000 laying around.....just to go fast.....you could spent far less on a corvette...that would stomp the ol' bird in the ground.....just sayin...

great car. unreal power. i would keep the 76 taillights they look 1000 times better.

[MrFlynryan]

I get 23mpg with E15 and 25mpg with Prem Gas. The cam is big duration, but EFI allows me to adjust the injector firing angle for economy, and run a lot of timing at cruising throttle positions. I have 6X over drive, lockup converter, and 3.89 gears. Does 2100rpm at 70 mph. 3.5" exhaust hand made, with 4mufflers including 2 massive Flowmaster 60's (30"long each)

@MrFlynryan SHIT! 25mpg with that cam! and in traffic is it good too? what gear are you running in the back? and what mufflers. thanks beautiful car
