Always have been and always will have all vehicles rowing gears. ---

Different strokes for different folks. I wouldn’t pay $20,000 for that thing… Brand new. A GM car would need 600hp+ to get my attention. ---

I read somewhere that the CTS-V had VERY low production numbers on manual trans and they seem to sell just fine. CTS-V thing went off. CTS-V2 only had about 16% built with MT6. V1 was 100%. Took me a while to find a MT6 with recaros but I am glad I waited. ---

> [@LZ](#): > > Its not pricey when you look at what new cars cost with comparavle options Yeah your probably right, I think a good comparision would be the SHO for a price point which starts at 40K. I think I just have a hard time wrapping my head around paying $45K for a chevy or ford 4 door sedan. ---

Look at what loaded Camrys and Fusions sticker for. Sure this is more but this is a full size well equipped sedan with a vette motor. Not that overpriced in the full size segment. PlusI would think being a chevy they could get a lot off the sticker price if you gave them a good grind. Grind em nice and good like. but seriously, shopping between dealerships will get you the best price. Just be that guy. ---
