I heard the exhaust and thought ...."CTS-V...454"
Anyway, if the LS7 is under there, I wonder if they will have the baffles in the muffler like the Z06 has, something to keep the car refined at crusing, but down right nasty when you step on it!!

Nice. That sounds really good.

But LS7? I don't think I agree with that assumption.

Wow, very cool. If that is going to have an LS7 in it, are they going to do something with the rearend. The LS2 made wheelhop and axle breakage an unpleasant reality for these cars, I can only imagine what the LS7 will do.

I don't think you have anything to worry about with the next cars. There is no way they will have those types of problems. I haven't experienced alot of them yet with my brothers V, but it only has 1k miles. But I think them going up in price and stature, there is no way it would be allowed.

GM has had people who have been doing nothing else but work the wheelhop problem on Sigma. The next gen will have some revisions, including probably some geometry changes, to address the dreaded CTS wheelhop.
