Performance specs? Track times? We know it'll be faster than the SS out now but you want specific numbers? 0-60? 1/4? Does that really matter?


The only one that matters to me is cost.
I already have a 1LE. If this one isn't a pretty solid improvement, which it likely will be, I don't see a reason to upgrade from the one I already have.

GRRM has taught me to like characters I hate, just so they'll be killed off sooner.

72 months 0% APR financing and lower insurance premium. Only about $60/month (+ additional 12 months of financing) difference between 1LE (priced at $46k in my calculations) vs a sedan ATS-V.

lol, yup, Maybe GRRM had something to do the the Pontiac G8 GT, sharp sedan 6.0L nice horsepower, then come out with the GXP give it a 6.2L and even more horsepower/torque and an optional 6 speed Manual and then....

I can see that.

I obviously haven't driven a 6th gen 1LE SS but I have had time behind a SS and the 5th gen 1LE and the 6th gen SS has all of the feel of the 5th gen 1LE.

Add in all those goodies and it's just gold.

The difference in the steering feel alone will want to make you upgrade and I cant even think about how much smoother the EDiff will make this as well.

Does that matter? Do the performance numbers on a high performance variant matter? Yea id say they matter a lot.

It's going to be faster than the SS. Do you really have to know down to the hundredth of a second faster?

Not at all! It's going to be pretty badass.

I think people are just wanting more info to have more info. It's going to be a beast.

Yes, that does matter because some people do know their cars to the hundredths and will take all of that in to account, with all the other data, when deciding upon whether or not to buy it.

Some people don't care about a 3.5GHz or a 3.6GHz processor. Some do because that .1GHz matters to them.

There's nothing wrong with not caring about how much. But, there are certainly valid reasons to.

Like I said, just starved for information.

That, or we have a ton of bench racers!!!! VRRRROOM! LOL


It's funny that we all are wanting so much information but in the end it's just not going to matter all that much.

Yup, you're right.

I don't find most of the manufacture published times to be correct anyways as owners always seem to take it a tad further. So, nope, published stock times mean crap.

Why would you be looking at the 1LE if track performance doesn't matter? It's a track variant. I do have to know down to the last hundreth cause if it only laps a track (same) driver a few hundreths faster than the 1LE I already have it's not worth spending the extra money on the new model for me.

Again, the 6G SS is already as fast as the 5G 1LE. Why wouldn't the 6G SS 1LE be any faster?
