How about American Engineering? Care to discuss the ZR1? I know, a tuned 318 has a quicker time.

I agree, a discussion with you is useless, and the mere fact that a Jeep SRT for 40K will put a...

Coupes and Sedans? There you go again, not making any sense. If you consider the Jeep SRT, ML63, Porsche TT and X6 coupes and sedans. I can see why you are not making any sense. Again, bang for the...

Resale value is talking a hit all around. Even the Vette Z06 is taking a huge hit when you can buy a low mileage 08 that listed for 80,000 for the low 50's now. BMW raised lease prices to off-set...

Do you have a ling to the 4.8 0-60 time? It is more like a 5.1 in the 0-60, and will lose to a 40K Jeep SRT, as well as the ML63 and Porsche TT. But still nice.

No, its not normal. I agree it could be the TB or the IAC, or several other causes. Take it in, and see what the Tech finds. It should not be that big of a deal or a long fix.

I think it is over priced by about $5,000You could buy a new 06 with all the bells for the high 60's. I have the 4.4 and tested the 4.8. To me, the 35 additional HP was not worth the extra 10K.
