I just don't agree with this. I don't think GM ever had any intention to make it a 100,000 unit car. If you've ever been in one you'd change your mind about it being a fail. The sound of the exhaust alone is fantastic. It is quite agile and light on it's feet. It feels more like a BMW than most recent BMWs I've been in.

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
