Commodore SV8 manual LS1 street car

A good example of a quick manual V8 street car is Julian's Holden Commodore VY SV8. Still retaining the original bottom end, the factory LS1 engine has receiving cylinder head and bolt on upgrades that results in consistent 11-second passes.

A true street car runs at full weight. Notice the back seats have been removed.

You're comparing apples and oranges. The black car is an auto and runs E85 fuel, both fast nonetheless!

Manual ftw, auto any can put there foot down and go, manual is more engaging and fun especially in 1/4 mile where good clutch control off the launch and good shifts make you win :)
