Maybe the Chinese STS-L...otherwise, I think the Commodore has the best chance of winning out of the GM nominees, and a pretty good chance at winning overall in my opinion.

It's SLS, not STS-L.

STS, eh?

Not bad. It does show that the STS does hold its own against the competition.

Commodore or STS... I'm not sure which to pull for.

Oh well,
