I never said I could drive, but they ran away from me on that track. They were in SSs. I was in a C6 Grand Sport. It was no contest.
It's not going to set records on the skidpad Doug, but the cars handle well.

Chris,
In all due respect, EVERY review this car has been written about complains about the excessive understeer, numb on center steering and the feel of it's girth.....include in that my own experiences driving it....yes, I've driven it.
There's a difference between handling 'well' and being world class and fun to drive....time to rectify this ASAP "in house"....this car is not supposed to be a good looking Monte Carlo SS...it's supposed to be a Camaro.
Maybe I need to come out to Pahrump and see if they can "run off and leave me"....and yes, I'll take the C6 GS....

Don't get me wrong...I KNOW the DNA is in the car...it's just that somebody compromised the suspension way the hell too much.
Call me when they build a 'real' Nassau Blue Z/28......I know, I know, Scott...patience......patience.....

I wish these sensors could be installed without the ugly spots on the bumpers. They could also include lane change warning sensors with them since they should use the same basic equipment.
I would like to add similar sensors to my truck. It is a PITA to park in tight spaces.

50 years ago you could buy things like "curb feelers" and translucent sticks that you could attach (typically near the right front headlight) to indicate a little better where that corner was.
The only real difference between those and the backup sensors here is that electronics are now involved.
Maybe if they didn't let as many morons get their licenses we wouldn't need as many nannies.

^ive already failed at the parking test once, please dont make it even harder for me to get anywhere in life, because i simply dont have the money to spend looking for jobs 10+ miles from home or to go to school over 5 miles, plus add in the total time of travel, i'll either lose my job that i currently can only afford to ride a bicycle to(12mile roundtrip) or have no time to sleep.
