Haven't cared to dig up specs, but it will be more evident once powerband and turbo specs are released to see how much GM left on the table. Considering that the M's turbos are tapped out at roughly 550-570 RWHP, the ATS-V could have the potential for power if the turbos are properly sized. Regardless, I doubt there will be many 130+ MPH bolt-on ATS-Vs. It's not a GTR... |

I am really digging the ATS (overall). Not so much of a fan of the hood on the V, but I think it's something I could get past once in the driver's seat.

Not that it helps this point but I only know one avid weekend track racer and he uses a 911 Turbo Venom 620.

But this has no bearing on how track worthy the new ATS-V will be. Quite possibly even more so than the M4. That statement above is ignorant at best. |

Can they please start getting the rears of these cars looking right? Just like with the CTS-V, the front end looks great but the rear end seems like an afterthought. Almost like they spent a year designing the front, and a week on the rear. A real shame.
