This car was nothing to scoff at when it wasn't eating it's own rear end. It's definitely a car to be respected, and the new CTS-V is even more respectable.... Finally, they upped the quality of the interior although, in the one pictured, it really wasn't that bad by American standards.

The funny thing is Holden's are just "aussie" cars with AMERICAN engines, and transmissions.

The corvette zr1 has almost the exact same shitty interior as the regular vettes, and the viper is disgusting both inside and out

Have you ever been in a viper, and walked around it? it is the size of a fucking Suburban! plus its still a pushrod engine design from the 60's... Not exactly a breakthrough in engine technology

Their always exceptions to the rules when they build a completely impracticable car that will never be a sales success... but we are talking about normal American cars...

That being said, I really do think that Cadillac has the worst design of all of the current American manufactures...

The ZR1 and Viper ACR would destroy your modded 135i even if all you had in it was a toilet seat.

Maybe he should buy one so he can go and irritate another forum with his threads.

Oh, you don't have any credibility here. No 1 Series owner will lecture the rest of us on style and design.

P.S: It is Manufacturer.

When Did I ever deny that it was fast ... Its a completely different kind of car, but I would argue that the 135i is better built, would last much longer, and cost less to maintain. I bet I could kick the shit out of your peice of shit $5000 focus around the track if all it had was a toilet seat, whats your point?

There's a reason vipers go through owners quickly, they are only fun for a couple thousand miles...

Wow, What the fuck is No 1 series? I guess you believe that it is the best series out right now? Your sentence structure is pitiful if you want to act as the grammar Nazi douchebag on the forums.

I said "No" One Series owner could lecture us on the subject of style or design. I beg to disagree on being called a "Douchebag", especially by you .
