I just traded in my beloved '95 that I've had for 6 yrs. I know I'm a traitorous dog to the RT family ... I went for a silver '99 coupe. 3k miles and so clean and perfect you could almost lick the oil pan. Hennessey headers and exhaust, lowered, airbox opened up w/smoothies and K&Ns. Bought it from SW here in Austin at Elite Motorsports and it dynos at 450rwhp.
My impression after 6 yrs of gen I ownership and track use: HOLY #!^&$!! I didn't know what I'd been missing. This thing is a totally different car. Soooo smooth handling I can't hardly believe it. Stability at speed is vastly superior to my gen I. It was always trying to snap around on me at the track ... what a balancing act. This one doesn't have that knife edge twitchiness at all. Power and thrust are awesome as well. Probably 75-80 rwhp more than the RT. What I want to know is how the heck have I been passing all those coupes at the track?
I'm in love.
