No defense here. I fear more that I may have accidentally offended the Solstice owners. I guess I'm just an old time car guy. Just bull@$&@ing about cars. And I certainly don't need a faster car myself. I'd just get into more trouble than I get into now. By the way. I noticed your Mustang. I have a hotrodded 64 Falcon. Even have a model-A. Ford and Mopar people need to stick together. GM owners can fend for themselves
