Call me crazy, but I didn't think the linked article was that bad. It gave reasoable credit to the cloned Yenko's strong points. The article did have some less sublte promotions to the advertizers products. Sounds like there were advertizes for brakes, suspention, steering wheels and the sort. Demographic target marketing, right?

I try and stay pretty open minded with all types of cars and bikes. The fact is, smaller engines can do more these days. My daily driver- Toyota truck has a supercharger on it, which really helps to flatten out it's torque curve. Heck my wife's old Q45 that I was asked to comment about last week wouldn't even shift into 4th gear until 140 MPH when the hammer was down. I personally know this because I outran a late 90's TA on a dead flat streach of road last year. The Q45 speedo only goes to 160 and I shut it down at 155. I should have stayed in it just so I could say it pinned the needle. All in all, the Q45 is more like a domestic since it is a V8 RWD car, so please go lightly on the flames.
