i think some of you guys are way off the mark. This Car WILL have a sub 12 sec 1/4. I would have liked a Supercharged V8 again like my last V but im glad they didnt go lt1. the mod potential is just insane with these factory Forced induction cars. The V-sport picks up 75 WHEELhp with just a tune. it wont be long before there are 550rwhp 3600# ATS V's running around and im excited for it. GM has been doing there homework, they did not build this car just to compete with the M4. That would be an uphill battle beacuse there is no denying the M4 is well respected and very desirable. The ATS was built to make a name and do it at a lower price point then the M. Thats the only way to steal sales. And the current V is selling closer to invoice them MSRP but they are holding very strong values, much better then the german counterparts at this point.
