  • Hello,
    OK, here we go. My wife and made it part of the way down Woodward Avenue in our forlorn little Kia rental car and I felt so inadequate among all of the loud Classic high horsepower iron. Somebody that looked official was collecting the Man Cards of every man driving a compact hybrid and thusly, I had to give mine up to the authorities. I may never get it back . . . I'm so ashamed.
    JustA6 - in a high powered, supercharged six cylinder car -- how's that for my Woodward Avenue story that is only partially true?
    My wife and I did venture down Woodward Avenue in our little red Kia hybrid rental this afternoon into mostly gridlock slow movement madness. The Kia got no thumbs up love from anybody sitting in chairs along the route but plenty of the Classics certainly did that were in the slow trip with us.
    Time was running out on us and we eventually abandoned the route and headed off back to the grandkids. I will try to do better in the future with my writing and make believe skills.
    And my only picture - Frosty below in his Firebird with the REALLY big motor and the awesome sounds out the back. There's no substitute for cubic inches and his car certainly checks that box.
    Rick

  • I wish! Too many variables to buy the first two! And the last one; JustA cut off both arms & poke out my eyes!
    Well, that’s a sad story. I’m a car guy born & bread! Never owned anything but cars. You see where this s going right? Never owned anything but GM! Excuse me again, gm. My allegiance to GM came from working on cars at 11 then racing at 14, not blind dedication because of a brand name. Even in those days I worked & raced many different brands, Ford, Chrysler, Dodge, AMC. GM didn’t just make the best, they engineered the best. Their designs made sense. The placement of components made sense! All the rest were illogical in one way or form or another. Then came the imports! There is not enough room here for that explanation.
    End result was I wanted a car! All the imports are a joke, literally, but not funny & I won’t put money in to a foreign country’s pocket so that left 4 cars total between three US car maker, & Chrysler really isn’t a US car maker anymore, but I will include them for the sake of argument. The Corvette @ $100,000 was out. The Charger is overpriced & not worth even close to what they want & not well built. The Mustang was a possibility, but I needed to be a little practical, we do have winter around here!
    That left Cadillac, who makes two, both 4 cylinders unless you buy the V series! Which I have looked at several times over the past few years. Flat out fact! No 4 cylinder can hold its own, turbo or not. When trying to move 3500 lbs or more against a V6 or V8, even if they are NA! Again not enough room for that conversation here.
    I wanted the CT5 V series 3.0 V6 twin turbo. But Cadillac screwed me. In “25” you could still get it without going to the V series, it was an option in just the regular CT5. And you could get the Sedona interior at no extra charge. Well this year in”26” they moved the 3.0 twin turbo to the V series only & to get the Sedona interior it’s a 8,000 dollar option!! Seriously!
    So what has now been a long explanation, sorry JustA, I bought a XT5 premium luxury with the 3.6 option motor. Stellar black, Sedona sauvage interior, & loaded option wise. The good news is there is an aftermarket upgrade for the 3.6 that takes the HP from 310 to 335 & torque up to 300 ft lbs.
    The bad news is this is the last year for the 3.6 V6 in anything! “27” will be 4 cylinders only. That’s part of why I made the move this year instead of waiting.
    You are absolutely right on Ringo!

  • Car market doesn't exist in new cars anymore with GM. It's all SUVs... Everything that is used is an arm and a leg too.
