I drive a 2.4L 4-cylinder turbo Dodge Neon SRT-4. I test drove an LS2 GTO and I wasn't impressed. N/A V8s aren't as fun as turbo 4-cylinders if you ask me...they don't have the push-you-back effect that makes driving fast cars fun. The gas mileage sucks ass if you put out its 5.3 second 0 to 60 MPH often but if you drive it without using the turbo then the mileage is in the mid twenties.

If I didn't have a fast car, I would definitely go for a huge ass V8 though. Caprice Classics, Towncars, Crown Vics, etc. are my cup of tea when driving a car that is supposed to haul you around instead of slaughtering people at stop lights.
