    Well guys I drove it today.!!!
    It was an RS 6 cyl stick, so I was a little disappointed that it was not a 8 cyl, but here is my opinion. The car is beautifully put together with joints and fits that are remarkable. The crispness of the exterior feature lines is strikingly awesome and second to none. It was yellow, not my favorite color, but looked mean. Interior is very comfortable with well placed driver features and standard gaging, much like the 69 standard. Absolutely quiet inside with doors closed, very little road noise gets in. Handling is spectacular..!! Chassis designers really did a fantastic job.!! Quarter turn on wheel will take you anywhere and fast.! Found no noticeable body roll on hard turns...just shit and git..!! And the 3.6 300hp V-6 does a very respectable job.! Dropped the traction control and blasted it from a light with tires smoking and 2nd gear tire spin as well..! 0-60 in very impressive time. I'm told that the car I drove would price in at about $22-23000. Hope that is true, cause I think they will sell like hotcakes at that price point..!! Can hardly wait to drive an SS model with the big hp V-8..!! Sorry guys didnt get any vid, got several pics I could post , but everyone has already seen plenty of pics I think.......

    Now if we can just keep GM in business, I think we have a real winner here......Sure be nice if the public likes and buys this baby, would possibly lead GM to build that shelved Z-28 model..!!! Now that would be AWESOME..!!

    Later...D
