Finally got a chance to get on it a few times this morning…it HAS to be traction and/or heat keeping this thing in the 13’s. It pulls like a freight train when it hits boost, even with 300lbs of sandbags in the trunk. First and second are completely useless except as road warmers with the pavement this cold, but man does it love 15 degree air.

> Would you be happier doing the same et in a lighter less powered car? I know personally it doesn’t matter to me, mid 13s is fun for a daily and I am sure this car cruises oh so nice. My M5 is 400 and only does low 13s and is also my favorite car I have ever owned…by far.
no i agree for the most part, my car is no faster. Just seems like something with that much hp should be a lot faster. A lot of cars out there would probably run 11’s with that much power.

winter is awesome for FI cars. I hate driving mine in the summer, it’s VERY noticeably slower.

Tried to PM you but your inbox was full. Rather not post in public just to cover my ass with the DMV.

Fair enough. I wouldn’t either for 78k. If it was the same car with AMG or ///M badges would you feel the same way? Pay to play if you want to buy new luxury.

Yeah that is the same color a couple gen 1 CTS-V’s came in. One near me has a maggie on it and really moves.
My dad had a Thunder Gray Chromaflair STS-4 performance package. Great car to travel in.
Check out the hack to watch videos with the RCA jacks in the armrest through the navi screen.
