A CTS-V as mentioned above is $70K+ new... and used they are still in the $40's for 09 models.
only other bigger GM car is the Impala, and they are in the $30K rang for a new one. The 2014 gets a lot of up dates and will probably be $40k... and still not a lot of fun.

The malibu looks good but most people will guy the impala because its bigger.

Then you have the big XTS caddie, but lets be honest no one is going to walk into gm dealer to look at SS and leave in grandpaws XTS. I mean id ride the wheels off one but 300 hp boat vs 415 sports sedan is not in same ball game.

We have a 2011 SS, a 67 vette i probably put 300 a year on, the denali, and the old faithful 8.1L suburban thats turboed lol, Its just a pain in the butt to put kids in and out of the camaro, and well kids and the vette dont work. i dont drive it for work becuase i usually have clients. anyone with legs cant fit in the camaro, and well im not paying for a CTS-V to log a 150+ miles on a day.. Id say the cars will sale like crazy. The G8 was a good car, just blaa inside.. and GM will not sale the caprice to the public. so if you want a fun quick sedan you dont have many options..

the E350 benz is $51K for base model, and has 301 hp v6... if you want the hot rod E63 your base price is $90K and it gets 500hp.. same goes for BMW.
a 528 bmw is $48K with 280hp step up the 550 and its $65K for 400 hp if you go all out for the M5 starts at $91K for 560 hp...
same with Lexus, a GS350 sport starts at $53K for 300 hp,

Only other option is like Ford, maybe a taurus SHO, and they are $40K with 365 hp...

lolwut.

Try more $64k. $70k is Escalade Hybrid territory.

And an Impala LTZ V6 starts at $37ish. It'll top out around $40k but that's where the SS comes in.
