GM is not as relaxed from what I witnessed. Burn rubber in a GTO, SSR, Cobalt SS or any other high performance ride and out you go. It is sillly. And what I did didn't come close to this.
Another thing that bothered me is that GM makes mention of "competition" cars yet they are few and far between. Where was Infiniti? Lincoln cars? Hyundai? Acura RL, RSX and TSX? Lexus IS or LS (GS is an exception since it was just released)? Why wasn't the Nissan Altima SE or Maxima available? Why only offer the base model of the competition's cars? Why the 300 Touring and NOT THE 300C???
These are things that bugged me a bit. GM obviously wants their cars to appear superior so they offer the base vehicles from the competition. At least as far as cars are concerned. As for trucks, the only loaded vehicle I saw from a competitor was the Lincoln Navigator Ultimate. My guess is because they have the Cadillac Escalade Platinum.
