For my next car, I acually plan on buying one... possibly next summer since I'm working full time now makin about 15 bucks an hour!!! (still saving)
if I cant afford it by then, then I will just get a LS model, there still pretty nice looking and push about 170 HP from what gm is saying!
I just hope canada is not stupid, and doesn't sell the car up here!

Actually I think the Redline is more "dolled up"...Anyway I don't like it, and the name sucks. Why won't anybody make a SC 4 door V6 that is affordable??

I partway agree with you on that one. The american car market is starting to go in the right direction... But still not quite getting it... its not all about making a 4 cylender fast... its all about going fast PERIOD... And a Supercharged V6... Even a 2.8 Liter would be insanely fast. and fun to drive... make it under 25K and you have my vote for one... depending on if the car isnt ugly or not.

IMO i would rather buy a car and modify it myself instead of buying a car already having the typical modifications like wheels. a car like this will soon be flooding the streets and be nothing special. if you do it yourself there is much less chance of seeing duplicates

Maybe I should have said "Manual Tranny, and atleast all wheel drive, since rear wheel is probably unrealistic." Also, the GTP is supercharged, but really not any more powerful than my SVT when stock...I suppose I should have been a tad more specific...
