Steve, that six-shooter Cuda had alot of very nice craftsmanship and unique ideas in its build, but it was somewhat of a 'poser' as far as performance was concerned. The Viper engine in the car was completely stock, they just had a ProCharger slapped on it. Not even a cam swap. It also had exhaust manifolds and tiny exhaust pipes with a nice 90 deg bend at the bottom.
I was parked right next to the Cuda at one of the Year One events. We got to talk quite a bit about cars and performance, and those guys thought they had my lil 348ci LS1 covered. So, I asked them to line the car up against mine since we were at a drag strip, and they sounded interested until I told them mine ran 10s already. lol. I should have just lined them up and blistered that Cuda down the track, telling them my car ran 12s.

As for this thread, I would go with the Mule. The Motion car looks kind of gaudy to me, almost fake. I prefer the original body lines of a 69 Camaro, and that twin-turbo system that W2W built makes me drool.
