I cant believe that 8 years after the last F-body that you guys are now realizing that a BMW Handles better then a Camaro.. You know a Lotus handles better then F-bodies as well.. Why couldnt GM make the Firebird handle just like the Lotus?
relax dude. everyone wants to improve their car, it's why we mod them. Since the time I took possession of it, more than 8 years ago, chassis stiffness has come along way, and all I'm saying is that it would be nice if someone made a solution besides subframe connectors which people still argue whether they even produce a benefit.

And like Keith said, shocks and chassis stiffness go a long way on our cars. Most of the time, they handle better than a BMW when set up properly. I think the issue here though is the overall package, and why GM cheaped out on things such as our ho-hum interior and doo-doo shocks and aging chassis. For example, BMW changes their chassis with every redesign. I'm glad GM is now starting to take suspension tuning seriously though. The CTS and Camaro are prime examples of how far it has come.
