That being said, until automakers can offer lighter weight materials while also keeping car pricing affordable, then we're all going to have to accept it one way or the other whether we like it or not
You was wrong Bro.

There we are. Now we're getting somewhere. This is why we had this conversation in the first place

And for the record, I was wrong about when the Camaro came out wit IRS. I own it. And yes, the 2015 Mustang was lighter than the 2015 Camaro.

Good. Now we're in line I don't need to send you an expedited shipment of midol.

How do I order? What do the pros say?

All J/K aside, I've actually visited Philly twice and really enjoyed the time I spent there

The 'who's cheesesteak is better' discussion is always a free for all. I personally can't stand the cheese whiz crap I like real slices of cheese melted in with the beef and onions. But that is just MHO.

Once you've had a real Philly cheesesteak, there's just no substitute for 100% real cheese.. Cheese whiz would just totally ruin the flavor IMHO..

So like which cheese?

I've always liked melted Swiss

Is one of the places called Geno's or something

I could google it I guess but that's not fun

We had a volleyball tournament in SA at the George Gervin Academy. I told my daughter who plays high school basketball wouldn't it be cool if the Ice Man showed up. And she said who's that?

**** I'm old.

I bring that up because philly reminded me of Dr J and Dr J reminds me of Gervin

When I was a teenager playing pick up basketball in the hood of you made a sweet shot the other guys would always say 'Gervin' after the ball went in. They used to tease me for being the token white boy and always laughed that my favorite player was probably Bird. Actually it was Gervin and Dr J.

Well this comment is very apropos for this thread.

Most of us saying we'd keep the S197 over the S550 are because of the looks.

I want to like the Camaro (was a child fanboy) but I can't get past the visibility problems or the ridiculous trunk.

While we're talking about 3 seconds going around in circles it's worth mentioning that the tourer crowd is far bigger than the track crowd...

I gained a camaro by marriage almost 25 years ago. What a ****box that thing was. I should have married a girl with a mustang. Other than that it's turned out pretty good.
