Sex! Ya know...this car REALLY grew on me. I like my SC more, but I am glad Gm is putting itself on the market more. bye bye SRT-4's.

EDIT: SCREW THEM! They get the ss badge in the wheel!

Sweeeet!

My favorite part:

However, the entire design of the seats is that it would hug you and keep you in position whether you’re out on a race track or you’re driving through some heavy maneuvers down the highway, that you can truly appreciate the 260 horsepower and the FE5 performance suspension.

It controls the brakes, not the power.

Gm keeps talking about aggressive this competitive that .... all things that people have been denied warranty work over . I'd like to see how they will handle some of the issue's that are bound to arise.

You dont have to lift your foot off of the gas pedal to shift.

But when you do the NLS, the computer only controls the rpms for something like .2 seconds. So if you don't do the shift fast enough, you will bang off the rev limiter like you would if you shift too late on any other car.
