Yes it is.I believe Motor Trend got 0-60 in 6.3 sec and 14.9 1/4.By disabling traction control and locking all 4 wheels I got 0-60 in 5.95 and 14.37 at 97mph with my GT2 timer.

HOLY Macro! Really? WOW tahts quite quick for a Raise up corolla!! Toyota is finally actually doing somthing right in terms of power now. They were behind Honda a few years ago by every category now they're leading! (* in terms of japnese *) Props.

A Very Good Price!!!! $43K fully loaded and then theres GM Employee discount. so Less than $40K or about $37K for a non fully loaded... whcih has everytyhing except the NAV and a few lexury items like Parking distance control and such.
. . . waiting. I had my history of American cars . . . Olds Delta 88, Ford Tempo, Mustang GT. . . and they call cost me in lots of repair and emission problems. That's OK, I think I would by a Japanese car before I go back to American. It just appears to me that every American car I own has a difficult time passing the 100K mileage with out costly repairs.

Really not interesting. Again straight line speed is not everything.
Like many other cars (Cayenne turbo s, ML63 AMG...) i really don't find the purpose of those cars...

To me this JGC gets as much respect from me as the Ford F150 SVT from a few years back (oh yeah... where is that vehicle today?). The SVT had similar performance numbers as the JGC but it's still a franken truck. I wouldn't give a BMW pickup that had lots of cargo capacity any more respect either. But you're right... freedom of choice is a good thing.

not to mention the lightning has a friggin TORQUE CONVERTER and a 4 SPEED AUTO...pause.. .wait, for it...wait...wait.......wait..........
