Default Re: “Pontiac Performance Years” Brownshirts

Well stated and I agree. I can't stand going there anymore, which is unfortunate since I love Pontiac's and used to really enjoy reading that site. There was one guy in particular who insisted on constantly demonstrating his ignorance regarding "5.slow" Mustangs. I finally posted a pic of Billy Glidden's black GT making yet another 7 second pass and stated "It's funny how, despite your obvious hatred, the 5.0 Mustang seems to be your standard of comparison." The post was quickly deleted.

I love all the eras and all the brands, so I guess I just can't understand why car guys insist on dividing themselves along marque, era, or some other equally silly lines. Between the government, the environmentalists, etc, we have plenty of potential legitimate problems without arguing amongst ourselves over silliness. There's a difference between being a fan of you favorite car, a little good natured ribbing among friends, and ignorant, hateful homerism.
