'03 Lightning
What's slated for the future? I have heard many stories. One was the '03 L will be up around 400hp and 475ft/lbs of torque. The other was the one I'm sure we've all seen, with the unibody, hard cover with flames engraved on the cover and in the seats. Another story I heard was the L would be discontinued after '03 (God I hope not!). Does anyone have any good reliable info, or even better some links where you can read about the new L's? Thanks

If they disconnuded the lightning agian it would only be a few years before they came out with even a more powerfull better handling model of it.
but I seriously doubt them stopping at least for a few more years

Ummm, say what? I believe the '02 has 380 hp, same as previous year, 20 up from the original 360 of the 2nd gens. And the '03 isn't even out yet...so unless you're running an '02 that's been chipped with a Diablo which I believe does give something like 25 hp, that number is just wrong...
