pricing, is the biggest obstacle... i would have to buy a higher mileage 04... around here most of them are still pretty high in price...

i want a b7 rs4 bad, just cant find any i can afford... have to wait until theyre in the low forties...

biggest drawback = automatic.

Looks pretty freakin' hot in my opinion. The interior is supposed to be way improved. The rear end was re-designed to rid the car of wheel hop (the plague of the last CTS-V). Rumor is that the car will have an LS engine (maybe LS3 or new redesigned motor "LSA") with a supercharger thrown on to make 525HP or more. Bob Lutz at GM says the car wil blow away the current M5. I actually believe him. Car can be had with auto or 6 speed stick. I would love to have the 6 speed. Price will kill the competition. Probably in the low 60s. I think the Germans are in trouble if this car lives up to the hype. Throw on an intake, pulley, software, exhaust and I think you'll have a car with over 600 wheel horse power that weighs around 4000-4200 lbs.

im hoping with this V line and the release of the new camaro/firebird itll be the turnaround for GM... my only gripe is that they didnt push hardenough to get the camaro/firebird into the new knight rider... instead of that cheesey ford mustang theyre using...
