Finally an American rear drive that has plenty of horsepower. I have been waiting for something that gave me what my old BMW 540 had. This is much more reliable and cheaper to own. Plus, it's got all the American muscle that I have missed for many years! It is a great car. I will be buying the '08 model with 500 HP when it comes out.

I am a women and I love driving this car! My husband tries to drive it as much as he can, but I don't give it up easy. The clutch is the easiest I have ever driven! I love everything about the car except the skip shift.

Not Good

During my first month of ownership the radio had to be replaced. The keyless entry quit working after 6 months. Also, a "thud" noise when applying the brakes had to be fixed - I am still not sure what that was. The design is too low to the ground, maybe reason that the "plastic" front strip became lose and I ran it over it. The engine has power but it is not equally distrubuted the over wheel base thus the reason for the "black" soot on my chrome wheels. It makes the car look like it hasn't been cleaned in months. I thought the car looked really good but it is definitely not worth the money for all the little quirks that need to be worked out. This is the last GM that I'll buy.
