Not NASCAR, but.... That Alpha chassis didn’t get to be a beast by studying mall parking.

Cadillac featured a manual in their second gen CTSV. I wish Cadillac and Chevy would get serious again and start making more roadworthy and good looking cars. Cadillac is trying.

That's awesome. I missed all that Cadillac history somehow...lol...I hope this new manual is a sign of that again. Hopefully serious engines and all will be coming as well. Thanks again. And good luck to Cadillac.

Sadly yes - and my wife hates them while I love everything about them. Forgiveness is easier than permission right!?

There are a few manual V wagons that run around here and come to local car shows. The one guy is putting 850hp to the ground.
