Didn't we get into the same debate earlier on old-school Daks vs. RT's? My
$10,000 95 will beat a $20,000 RT w/ less than $2000 in engine mods. I mean, I
agree that the Ferd is overpriced, and can't wait to kick the crap out of one, but
the price thing can be taken pretty far.."my $1000 Nova w/ a junk yard 454 w/ $500
worth of nitrous can beat your $25,000 R/T".......well, you know what I mean.
Either way, I'm happy w/ my 95, and happy it doesn't have any blue ovals on it
