A friend of mine has a Trans Am WS6 (same as Camaro SS). Don't kid yourselves. That car is a freaking beast. The LS1 motor pulls like a freight train and just doesn't run out of steam. It's crude, but it's also very cheap.
I agree that Porsche needs to stop mucking around and put some power in these cars. Power isn't everything but it's something! 320hp in a Boxster S isn't "asking for the moon". It's not like anybody is saying it needs to be 500hp. But the Boxster S' performance should really be be along the lines of the M3 and C5 Corvette. Just my $0.02.
