I always find these threads entertaining and then a little annoying at times when they lead to arguements. I surely took the video as a way to simply show someone that you can modify something to make it do more of what you want, and still not spend as much. Id love to have a CTX, i just cant afford it, otherwise i would have one too.
Let me make another version of another real life occurance, but between cars. There was a guy i worked with who had a really nice and at the time, brand new 2006 Corvette Z06, I, at the time, had a 2004 SRT-4. I also had some simply work done to it, all by myself too, no shop work, simply add-ons or swaps... And the little car beat the corvette on a highway jaunt, starting nose to nose at about 40mph, corvette pulled away first, but couldnt gain faster than mine. I had less than 20,000 spent on the car and parts etc (bought it new for like 17,000 or w.e.) also, 13.15 at the drags in a 1/4 mile. Again though, cant say a 4 banger is better than a dream car corvette, but mine could and did beat that car.
Maybe this is like comparing wives or girlfriends too... Of course mine is better than yours! LOL!! To each their own, takes a special match for everything in life... Either way, just felt like reliving the times of that ol' SRT... And i hoped that story would help others see what i believe what was trying to be shown in comparison videos like that one.
Good luck to everyone this year, spring is right around the corner now!!!
