I've driven the hellcats... they're just too much. You've got to pay constant attention or you'll put it into a pole.

If I can only pick from these three, I'd go Camaro, Challenger, Mustang.... I'm a big fan of the Chrysler LX cars, but the Camaro just has too much goodness. I'd probably go for the V8 if I could get it under $35k... but I'm guessing it will price out higher than that. but otherwise I'd get a Chrysler 300S Hemi with zero options and the supplier discount... and I'll scoot in right under the $35k mark.

I was behind a brand new current body Cruze in traffic today. It was in dark green and LTZ trim..... quite handsome actually, it looks above it's station in life.

It doesn't sound like the Vette driver is using No-Lift during shifting... maybe he is, but if he isn't, he could be getting even better acceleration

We're really happy with our Encore and it isn't for the vroom vroom performance. We live in the suburbs of Pittsburgh but we are in downtown often. I also take lots of long trips in the Encore. It's great for both city scooting and long distance comfort. 0-60 is pretty meaningless to us. That said, I'll have a Renegade Trailhawk and Renegade Sport review up in a week or three.

Do U sell for Benz? Just wondering. Either way.. I would say that Cadillac as of late have been showing a few exclusive engines coming.. the TT V8 is on its way, and I highly doubt that they will use it anything except Cadillac I don't work for Benz in anyway. I do think the TT V8 will be Cadillac only which is good. But the Germans already have lots of TT V8s, Cadillac needs one now, not in 2020. the TTV8 is 18 to 24 months away.

Just thinking that a "LIKE" button would be kinda cool when the new software arrives. Anyway.. I agree. I think that U should be able to have a choice of at least 2 engines in each car. Add the cost in for the accommodation. 200hp, 206lb-ft would be a damn nice add on in a Cruze RS and a Sonic SS We have the Vote Up and Vote Down buttons in place of the Like button. Look for the red and green arrows.

My issue with GM is that they hold back the good stuff from North America. The 1.6T is a 200hp, 206 lb-ft direct injected engine that returns fantastic fuel economy. The Europeans get it... so far, it's here only in the Buick Cascada. Why can't we get this engine in the Sonic and Cruze and Encore and Trax? Even the 1.5T with 160hp and 184lb-ft would be a welcome upgrade in these cars

Reader Reviews can go in the forum named for that. If you're interested in "going pro" and having your reviews featured on the front page, PM me after a few of your Reader Reviews go up and we can talk.

The trouble for both the Cadenza and the K900 is that they are decent cars, but better options exist at their price points. $60k gets you a very very nicely equipped and better handling CTS or 5-series... and very soon a CT6.

I'm happy to offer you guys a new home.

There is a whole segment of car guys who have no interest in RWD pony cars. It doesn't matter how good the performance is and for how cheap, you'll never catch them in a Mustang or Camaro. If the Sonic 5-door had a better performing powertrain option, you might be able to pry them out of their Civics or Scions.... but GM will never ever do it with a Camaro. It's not wrong or right, it is simply a preference segment.

Yup, it's where we end up discussing each other's cars.

Glad to have all of you here!
