Cuz FE isn't much better than a V8 and it costs and weighs almost as much as a V8. Not a real big advantage. I wish they had just put the LT1 in the V-sport.

But the 2.0T in the ATS is pretty solid. If they can keep the weight decent it will be pretty fun. In a few months we will have reviews of the ATS coupe and that will indicate what we could expect.
