Guys if you have not had a chance to really drive the new SHO I suggest you do so ASAP.
Got my new one last night and my first thought was you could not find a car under 65K that would even come close (my show sticker was 46K including the 8K in options).
If you’re a gadget & Toy guy this car rocks
The radar system is very cool. Set the cruise and forget it cars pull out in front of you and it gently slows down then speed up and you barely feel it.
The huge back up display and live weather radar along with the whole sync talking thing is very well thought out and super easy to use. I did not know it gives you a complete sports update listing say hockey with a TV guide and current standing and so on...NASCAR it even gave points listing in each division.
Rear window vent shade works super as well as the rain sensing wipers. Sony surround sound system is of course very nice
I even said set temp 74 degrees and it adjusted my side of the climate control.
To much to list but the variable air bladder computer controlled seats are to die for. I did not want to get out
Handling for a full sized sedan is well balanced with great brakes.
Power.. well it's a V6 6 speed w paddle shifting, AWD and Twin Turbo's but scoots in stock form (with Torries tune I am thinking very low 13's or high 12's)
Trunk is freaking huge with the special organizer it has a golf bag rack (now I need to learn to golf) If you need more the back seats flip down and you can load lumber for your GT ramps
Not a very detailed review but I have only had it 12 hours so once I can really see what it can do I will let you know. Oh it puts my old Audi A8 & BMW 730i in Germany to shame...If you have a CTS-V you got me on the drag strip but everything else the SHO has it covered
