Z28 always was better.
SLP ****ed that up. Z28 was the race car, SS was the high end luxury trim. Thats the end of that convo.

Yeah, I totally agree with the auto comment....it will definitely appeal to a broader spectrum of buyers. Plus, GM obviously had to beef up that A6 trans so maybe some of that knowledge can trickle down to the other A6's.

Aside from the quad exhaust, it really doesnt do much for me. Maybe some standard photos will change that

The front facia has some major enhancements you can make out along with some other stuff
1) Fog lights are raised and there are brake cooling ducts under them.
2) much larger lower grill opening for enhanced cooling to the rad/intercooler
3) larger front brake rotors and calipers
4) quad exhaust
This is a powertrain mule. 2012 will also be getting a few more visual enhancements along with a new interior. And a convertable model.
the 6L80E is pretty strong, same one in the CTS-V auto.

And 20 more hp, and upgraded suspension, and rear wing.
IMO, hopefully they've tackled the weight issue in this one, otherwise its pointless.

We will be lucky if it comes in at the same weight as the SS.
