Hi all -

I didn't have a chance to "get on it", but it drove like a new car with a lot of horses. Supposedly rated at 426 hp. You should have seen the folks driving by my house with both of those in the driveway!!

Very cool. Did you buy that or do you work for GM or a dealership?

Okay, the similarly powered Vette does 0 to 60 in 4.1 with the stick and 4.3 with the auto (both 6 speeds) so I guess the stick Camaro is quicker but then the V-Series CTS auto is quicker than the stick so I am less sure. So who knows?
