    yes sir and for 3 good reasons:

    1) they have a top so you can drive in the rain
    2) girls don't think you look like a redneck in a dune buggy
    3) you get a nice variety of skittles colors to choose from

    If I recall correctly they're in the neighborhood of $35,000.

    They can be made to be street legal. They can out handle bikes on a track and run deep in the 11s or possibly even 10s in stock form.

    I'd pick Honda reliability anyday over the Ecotec motor, though. What can I say, I'm a sucker for 9,000RPM redlines.

    The Honda K20 engine also comes with an option to supercharge it and make 275-300hp, also.

    These things have been around for a while. However, for the price, I'd probably spring for something else.

    GM has made some pretty sh*tty stuff, but the Ecotec engine is not one of them. It actually pretty good powerplant and is easy to modify. You don't get the torqueless 9K RPMs though.
