Fully loaded 6spd Ram Air WS6 Dissipointed. Suspension is set up for drag racing, not road racing (salivion life). Anoying "squat" when on gas or brakes (car is LOOSE). PISTON SLAP problem at cold startup and lifter noise! At startup 5-10 (hollow scrap/knock) This is your pistons cocking sidways in the cylinder bore until the pistons expand enough to narrow the tolerance. Also, the 6spd manual is a P.O.S. It shifts harshly, binds up, and you can directly from 6th to 3rd to pass someone! It also exibits gear rattle at the bottom of 1st and 2nd
Rest in Peace?

Hopefully it will be brought back as a leaner more refined machine. GM needs to look at the sales success of the Mustang and give the consumer what they want. They want fun value packaged performance cars with styling elements from the original 1967, 1968 and 1969 cars. Think of it, a Mustang shaped car with a more upright seating position with a 5.7 V-8 engine. These cars should be about balanced fun and performance. This is something Ford has figured out. Rest in peace? I hope not.

Extremely powerful, fun to drive, last of the true muscle cars! Interior could be styled with less plastic, however has true cockpit feel. Turns heads at every stoplight due to aerodynamic exterior. Sorry to see this classic go out of production.

There simply is no way you can touch this level of performance for this price. The F-body twins blow the Mustang out of the water when it comes to power and handling. It's a shame that GM saw fit to kill them off.
