Although it will be nice to read some reviews, the first reviews generally released are first drives, where impressions are discussed but no numbers.

He just did the ATS-V and new Merc for head 2 head. Don't think he is going anywhere.

Not always. From what I've seen, GM tends to not give many cars out for 'first drive' reviews. Or if they do, its something like what they did in May when they had a bunch of journalists drive around early prototypes several months before production begins.

I'm sure Randy is not going anywhere. Yeah I can't wait till he takes one around the track, especially willow or Mazda Laguna seca. Hopefully soon we will see reviews coming but I am afraid also we may not see performance numbers at the first reviews.

theClown on mg6 is stating that the v6 they are testing has a performance pack on it and weighs close to 3700 lbs. A performance pack V6? Really?

ThePill on mustang6g has stated this. I guess he wants us to believe that he has some super secret connections.
