Being upset that a car with half the cylinders can lay the smack down on the strip and run 8's or better..... is hardly an excuse for whining.......

I know you can hit 10s in a del sol for a VERY low cost. Much less than what you'd expect to put into a GTO and get the same numbers.
Bottom line, if you want to put 100k into anything.... you'll be having a lot of fun in a custom piece, that's very fast.
Stock to stock? you've already lost money, reliability and mpg's on the GTO. For those in the know......

How much HP and torque would that del sol have? Or is HP not vital to fast track times?
How about a stock Scat Pack Charger @~$40k, 12.5 on street tires & 23-23mpg?

Actually, both of the bolded portions are incorrect. Faster yes, but four wheels beat two in braking and cornering. A quick google search will turn up examples. A bunch of physics equations will prove it. Youtube has videos.
Do you know how many of these things I see around Detroit? Like the most common car around, I swear.
Good value though are those cars, just too bad they still come with 245mm width tires all around on a huge vehicle that weights over 2 tons! My fronts are 255 and my rear are 275mm Michelin Pilot Super Sports (nothing compared to my buddies wide-body Z06 with 335's in the back!!)
I like to toy with some of these dudes on the streets, along with BMW/Benz/Audi guys. Outside of straight-line speed, ATS-V is like a scalpel in the corners and is one of the best-handling sedans of all time.
