If it isn't LS powered I am not interested. I bet it will be that V6 with some turbos on it. I don't think the car is big enough to cram the LS engine into it. It barely fit into the CTS.Originally posted by racrguyWhat's your beef with NPR, because their listeners are typically more informed than others?Originally posted by racrguyVoting is a constitutional right, overthrowing the government isn't.

As expected, the ATS-V is motivated by a 3.6-liter V-6 engine. Sourced from the CTS Vsport, the mill received titanium connecting rods from Pankl Racing Systems, two water-to-air intercoolers, and twin titanium-turbine turbochargers. According to Road and Track, the six-banger is good for at least 450 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque, a significant power advantage over the BMW M4’s 425 ponies and 406 pound-feet.
Mated to either a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic, the engine should push the ATS-V from naught to 60 mph in less than four seconds and up to a top speed of more than 160 mph. Sounds like the Germans are in big trouble!
Keeping all that power and speed on its best behavior is an updated suspension that increases roll stiffness by 50 percent compared with the standard coupe, Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires and a high-performance braking system.Originally posted by SilverbackLook all you want, she can't find anyone else who treats her as bad as I do, and I keep her self esteem so low, she wouldn't think twice about going anywhere else.
