Just wanted to say that I never new how slow LS's are, no offense to anyone. Raced a Acura LS with my 4 door automatic pontiac sunfire se and beat it from 20mph to 100mph. Sorry but I think thats pathetic, I was a little more than a car lenth ahead the whole time.

Yea I know it had an exhaust of some sort on it and I think it was a stick so dunno. Maybe he was a bad driver. I heard him drop it down and figured why not try, defenitly was not expecting to stay ahead of him. It was defenitly funny tho, guess it must have been that extra half a liter of displacement :D

Well I get about 24mpg in town and I just drive it back and forth to work, It's better mileage then my other cars, that and I bought it off a freind for 700 bucks so it was a good deal. Its good A2B transportation and it keeps miles off my other cars so I put up with it.
