Don’t Audi’s and VW have that digital center LCD between the two gauges?

Also, why is there no red line? I’ve seen this “feature” in some Ford’s. Do you just rev it until it explodes?

I have to say, I think that I’ll like this one.

The hood scoops are offensive, some of the interior bits would benefit from a rethink, and the digital center gauge cluster is a bit retro (and I mean that in the worst possible way), but otherwise, it sounds like a winner. Let’s just hope that it’s reliable…

and perhaps thats why they enforce the ban on TTAC. Maybe GM can’t handle the truth even if maybe just maybe this car is a good car. We’ll just have to sit back and wait.

Is the MT-quoted 0-60 time with the 3.6l V-6, or with the V-8? The specs list the V6 model, but the weight suggests it will need the V8 to make a near 5 second 0-60.

@KixStart:

It’s LHD and there’s a driver and passenger in the car. It’s just that the driver’s image is darker and somewhat harder to see.

Is the vehicle in the photo right-hand-drive?
