Default Automobile FEB/2010 Issue - 10 All Stars

It still continues to amaze me to read in the FEB/2010 issue of Automobile where the critics heap volumes of praise on the BMW Z4 and Porsche Boxster/Cayman models. Both of these made their 10 All-Stars list in this issue. With the Z4's 3.0 liter twin turbo 6 rated at 300 hp/300 lb-ft and the Porsche Cayman S having 320 hp/273 lb-ft from its 3.4 liter flat-6, both of these marques still haven't quite caught up to the Crossfire SRT-6 performance ratings for the 2005/2006 model years. (Note: I'm not convinced that the Z4 or Cayman/Boxster models out handle our cars either.)

I'm envious to those of you that have been lucky enough to have an SRT-6 in your stable and you should be proud that your 4-5 year old car still out performs the latest & greatest from the 'other guys'!
