Just be prepared for crappy traction with the stock goodyears. Esp if it is cold at all outside. I was in 3rd gear doing 65 mph on the freeway and punched it. Next thing I knew I was pointing toward the center divide. The car snapped out of it easily, but still. The car only has a Corsa cat back, high flow catted x-pipe, and an intake. ( about to get some long tubes )

I have a set of 345/30/19 Nitto NT05R's sitting in the garage, waiting to be installed when the weather gets better. Should not have any traction issues then

Careful. A friend of mine flipped his C5 3x driving with a DR on the street. I am guessing the NT05 is a DR by the "R" designation? If so, stay away if you EVER think you might be in the rain. If not, go for it.

Well, considering a 370Z will turn on the low-trac light punching it in 2nd or 3rd gear as well, I think a car with @ 175% the power can get away with it without me being too upset, lol.

The interior is dated. I think if you look at the new Cruze (*SP), you will see what GM is capable of and will likely do in the C7.

*PS. Were the exhaust mods worth giving up a 5/100 warranty for, in your opinion?
