I think that with some cam and exhaust changes the LSA would close the gap. I also think that it would hold up very well. The idea is to keep the costs down so that the business case doesn't get blown out of whack. Lok at the Challanger, you can't give the SRT Challangers away.

The brakes from a CTS-V is a natural. No new tooling and it keeps the costs down.

Remember they are in business to make money, not build your dream car for a 20,000 loss LOL

Ahh finally, someone who agrees with me. 556hp is not going to do it. What we REALLY should keep an eye on is the 2012 CTSV, If they up the HP on the LSA it will probably show up on the CTS-V first.. So we should keep an eye out for LSA changes.
