If anybody is a member or view/read other forums of the contenders the 1LE is making noise.

I've never looked at a BMW forum before so I had to hunt a little. They are very complimentary to the 1LE and Chevy in this thread. Nice.

Here is another thread from there. More defensive for the home team as they should, as other forums would be also.

I don't know, I guess I don't agree with the definition of 'driver's cars' that other people have. Lots and lots and lots of cars go fast and do it well.

Here's a bit of a technical and obscure reference, but Jimmy Clark, two time World Driving Champion, once said the the Lotus 49 was hard to drive. His opinion mattered; he was considered the master of the sport at the time.

Now, the Lotus 49 was a great car and in a technical sense, iconic both for its design and its engine. Would I call it a 'driver's car'? It certainly required a real driver to handle it.

To me, a 'driver's car' is one that fits the driver well in regard to the task of driving. To a pilot, they would consider it a reduced workload environment. Going like a raped ape is secondary in this regard, in my opinion. My 1978 Firebird Formula was a piece of shit. I hope to never own a worse car in terms of quality.

It fit me like a glove. Every control fell to hand without changing my driving position, except for the passenger door lock and window regulator. Despite that car having one of the worst V8s GM disgraced a car with- the 305- it handled quite well; it was a WS6 optioned car, and no matter how I sawed the wheel back and forth, I never changed driving position. Driving it was fun, extremely so, despite a low rpm, low torque, low compression, and low hp lump of iron and broken dreams under the hood.

I feel that hunk of junk was a "driver's car" nevertheless. It never won any races except the "first one to rust out wins" race. I once got out of a ticket in that car by explaining to the cop that it broke the laws of physics to have gotten it to 60 mph in just one block, that's not a joke: about 24 pounds of weight for each horsepower. Horrible.

I'd like to hear your take on the Pontiac Aztek next.

If there is any news related to the 6th gen, there is a good chance you'll be able to find it on Camaro6.

And to get videos to embed, just paste the plain old youtube.com video link. Not an embed link or a shortened one or anything else.
