Seen, not heard

So recently i've seen quite a few camaros in central and west Texas, but I haven't heard them. Is it just me or are more and more people skipping the basic engine mods and getting cosmetic ones?

I'd imagine they can do whatever they'd want to do with their car.

You're probably right. After all, these cars come with a lot more power than the classics. People need to do less to get where they want to be as far as performance. Not everyone can handle 500 ponies.

I would be one of the many you are speaking of... I upgraded from my 4-bangin-MPG-stretchin-slow-drivin-power-lackin Altima... so the stock 426hp on mine is plenty to hold me over... err... at least for a good while...

so yes... i started out purely with cosmetics in mind... not that it really needs them... but a few blackouts here and there really do go a long way...
