Default Mini Review ITR vs 9c1 Caprice

ITR > Caprice
-brakes are much nicer
-handles slightly better
-seats are much more supportive
-steering is way more precise
-gas milage is better
-has one more movable pedal
-chicks and bugs dig it

Caprice > ITR
-ppl move out of your way on the highway
-TORQUE!
-drifting in the wet is always fun, even in a boat like this
-can pull up to any gas pump (filler neck = behind rear licence plate)
-curb hopping is no problem with the 65 series tires
-will tow an ITR w/ no issues
-able to give 9 ppl a ride back through the summit woods or watkins glen walkthrough
-does cool burnouts with trailer attached
-can be left at the mall for extended periods of time
-will carry more tires
-makes c00l v8 sounds

Clearly the Caprice is superior!

you should also add:

(for caprice)....less likely to get pull-over cuz they think you're one of them


Matt must be boring at work

I never got pulled over in either one, so it's a draw...although the caprice can still loose that one....

I coulda told you that!

I owned 2 different ones about 6 years ago.

I always like the the Troopers and local boys gave me when I cruised past them. And the fear that the rice boys got when I came up quickly on their rear bumpers on the highway, they'd use their turn indicator move over and promptly drove 5 under posted speed limit and wouldn't look anywhere but straight ahead with hands affixed to the wheel at the 10 and 2 o'clock positions. In the summer time, they'd even turn down their crap assed rap-o-rama and thumpin bass.

Run an open air filter for an awesome Wahooom! sound. Better than any B series jockin an AEM/CAI.
