Two Reviews: M5 vs CTS-V and Camaro V6

http://www.roadandtrack.com/article....rticle_id=6963

Road and Track asked Caddy and BMW to bring thier cars to a site in New York to test the M5 and the new CTS-V.

BMW brought 6spd manual and 7spd SMG while CTS-V piloted by head of GM Performance Divison John Heinricy was only 6spd manual. Remember that the CTS-V set the record at the 'Ring with the 6spd auto.

First review of the Camaro V6. They drove an LT and an RS one. As expected, Camaro put the Mustang to shame while handling much better then the Challenger.
They were very impressed with the car, everything about it. Good stuff to hear from Car and Driver.

Attention, IROC-Z enthusiasts: the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro will not be available with your beloved T-top. If this is hugely disappointing, well, it may finally be time to put on a shirt with a collar, sell your Skynyrd CDs, and scissor the mullet.


Although I do wish it had T-tops available....i don't like sunroofs much.

A lot more reviews out there from all the car rags. Pretty much all saying the same thing, great handling, great performance, higher grade materials and higher grade of car overall.

Cant wait for the production units to really get ran through the gambit.

A Targa top might actually look nice on one
