Stunning good looks and maximum performance from the all new Corsa
C7 Corvette Carbon Fiber Intake System. When only the very best will do,
it has to be Corsa
I thought "BAD TO THE BONE" always referred to the Bad A$$ 86/87 Buick's.
That's what I would see in print just about every time I ran across an article about those "Bad A$$" black V6 air conditioned Buick Grand Nationals. I had a air conditioned turbo V6 for years and every time I would pull up next to a Corvette at a traffic light they would go out of their way to wait until I left the light to move for some reason. On the other hand all the hot Mustang boys with their gold neck chains & reflective sunglasses would rev their engines just to let me know I was about to get my a$$ kicked; Well that 'never' happened. Hell once on the street I raced 3 mustangs at one time and after I went by the last one & slowed down to 30 mph so they would catch me they all slowed down and took the first turn around before catching up to me. These cars for the most part got 'respect' at the track & on the street. The reason I think the Corvettes did not mess with the GN's was because they could not tell if they were bone stock or not and they did not want to admit to friends & family that they had been beat by a V6 in a old man (Buick Regal) family car.
I sold that car I build a while ago in between the ownership of the black 2010 GS & 2015 Z06. Pics below.
Left at idle (zero boost) in drive running 21/22 psi of boost down track when the boost fully build up. If I came out on any boost by holding the brake pedal on the MT 'street' drag radials the car would do a John Force burnout.
Last look at the car for me as the new owner had it loaned up and was about to leave. I do miss that 'turbo' kicking in.
