They have a bad reputation any more, thugs and mutts love em & the image they have is not very well respected.....something needs to be done to build thiese up to what they once were....
The new ones are meh, over priced and not stupid comfortable.....
Heck, we ran a black CTS-V that should have blown us away & he did not....we beat hism 2 our of 3 and only lost cuz I tried using the paddle shifters instead of the 8 speed doing it's thing in race mode.....
