The GS in 1970 was a high average priced car, the CTSV is a fuckin expensive luxury car. I use the GS for the examples cause i have one but its that same for a lot of those cars ---

oh yeah, 70 GS(X)'s were winning the super car showdown a few years during the 80’s. The GSCA hosted a 3 race shoot out between a bone stock Stage 1 and hemi cuda, the GS and hemi split the first two and the mopar boys put the cuda back on the trailer and boo hoo’ed after the third race. The 69 H/O, ls6 chevelle nor the the 70 Judge could touch the 70 GS stage1.
