another V8 owner damages ride.
Passed by a flat black SS facing wrong direction & onto the sidewalk, driver's side AB deployed. Youngster standing outside as Police surveys incident. No camera, but just shake my head to them as I slowly pass by to assess damage...

I agree !! I wish there was a button that would just turn off a couple of cylinders and drop the HP about 200 for street driving !! That would make me feel much more safe !!

I 100% agree ! Whenever I loan my SS to the 12 old little girl next door I always make sure she leaves the TC/Stab on !! Safety first !!
