My mods are 3" catback

Hey p0rk anything done to the kraut wagon yet? I like the new Mark Vs. I heard they get it done with APR chips and downpipes/intercoolers?!
I ask because I encountered a moded 1.8t Jetta and a Focus SVT playing on the highway recently. I got into the mix. It still amazes me the looks I get when I start slowly..surely walking away and then proceed to stomp on their egos. The following strikes me when I race people...:
1. I am debadged so they can't believe a "COBALT" is pulling them
2. Their face looks like they woke up next to their sister naked
3. They can't believe its a Cobalt
4. They lean forward on the steerng wheel as I walk by, like it'll help
5. They have bitter beer face
6. They can't believe its a COBALT!!!

I actually had two Camaro SS's, one 2000 and one 2002.
I traded the 2000 in on my SS/SC when it had 43,000 miles on it.
I had both the SS/SC and 2002 SS for a while and found myself driving the SS/SC more than the SS.
Now for why I got rid of them:
I modified each with SLP parts only SLP/Blackwing Air Lid & Filter, SLP LT Headers, SLP Cat-Back, SLP/Bilstein suspension and I used the SLP spec Predator programmer. So basically I was to a point where I needed to do internal work top make them faster. Not to mention the 7.5 would have to go. Since I hate loud ass lopey modern day sports cars and I really didn't feel like tearing into them.
As they both sat they could run 12's on street tires and do 175mph + which was I thought was fast enough for me.
But just like my other 26 cars and Honda CBR it got boring so I sold it.
