Car Guys
Welcome to the "Performance Edition" of Car Guys!  In this edition, all concentration is on the
wide range of available and upcoming performance vehicles.  This is what most car enthusiasts really
love, so I've done away with articles about the Honda Civic and all of those
other "boring cars" that make typical car guys yawn.
Let's face it most of you don't really care to read the
multi-paragraph articles that blabber on about fuel efficiency and technical
nonsense.  And as much as the James May
side of me would like to continue that, this time around I'm not going to say a
damn thing about any of these cars!  I've
gotten right to the point, posting the vehicle name, a photo, and a list of
performance specifications.
I encourage you to post your remarks about these vehicles
at the bottom of the page!  Which is your
favorite?  What do you like/dislike about
some of these cars?  What car should I
feature that I may have missed?  If
you're not a lazy bastard, please let all 660+ of us know :)
Enjoy!
