From what i can see they have about the same HP and weight as the 3800 camaro, however the camaro has more tourq. I wouldnt worry about the AWD, any advantage it would get from it it would loose do to the amount of HP it looses in the drivetrain. So that would be a pretty good race, but tourq means more than HP so i would take the camaro to win.

are the gsx's theones that are turbo charged with the wing about 1ft. off the trunk? or is that something different cause my neighbor had one of those and it was quick as **** and with $10,000into it it can run with the 03 vettes and **** but then again $10,000 into a vette would kill yourself so

yeah the eclipses with the big curvey wing are turbo, the gsx's and the gst's. gsx all wheel drive,gst just turbo charged. my friend has a gst 97, and that thing hauls. hes got a bigger turbo, front mount, shift kick and some other goodies.. i hate to say it but those are quick cars.

If modified correctly and not riced out those cars could be real nice... chick car or not. Like i said before my friend has one.. and its far from a chick car.. its a nicely modified car.

Well I suppose they can be nice cars. But around here, like 9 times out of 10 its a girl driving. So for me, I see those, I associate it with a girl.

GSX VS a V6 is not even a game sorry. The turbo offers a lot of top end and they are strong out of the hole even the GST the FF is still strong. Its not all about the power but how it makes its power that matters.
