    Question

    I've heard the commercials about the 260 hp V6. Just wondering if all that horsepower is getting lost in an automatic transmission. Has anyone been out for a test ride or seen any reviews?

    people who have ridden say it feels faster than a stock gsr, heck shawn church timed one with a stop watch 0-60 6 flat. granted that won't be "exact" still pretty quick for an auto even if it's a 5speed auto. i haven't personally been for ride but i entered in car test and it ran a 14.8 so i'm sure it would be a mid to high 14 sec car

    Something to remember about any car. TORQUE makes most feel faster than a GS-R. A GS-R doesn't pull hard, it just pulls long. So most cars, even my mini van feels stronger than a stock GS-R, but it's that flat torque curve and lower gears that gives the GS-R the advantage at the track.

    For a cruise'n, reasonably quick sedan, you bet, the CL 3.2 is really nice. (then you put a blower on it!)

    Me and my dad test drove a new 3.2 Cl S and let me say that it is one hell of a car. It is very quick and the ergonomics are great. I think the sequential sporshift helps out with the tranny. The dual exaust also make it look vary bad-ass.
