    B58 is all about two words. Closed decklid. The N54 and 55 were making like 700whp on stock internals with a big single turbo and E85. Beyond that the block started being an issue with it's open decklid design. That'll no longer be an issue with the closed decklid, so once the aftermarket gets to work on these, oof. The B58 will become the closest thing to a modern 2J really.

      Yep. Far more a function of the type of person driving it than the car driving the owner not to use their signals.

      14.1 Liters, the soon-to-depart ('18 for sedan, '19 for coupe) Cadillac ATS is made in the same RWD Alpha platform family as the G6 Camaro, which is why there are complaints about lacking rear seat room (ATS is just slightly longer than the G6 Camaro) and the ATS-V engine is a 2T-3.6L V6 (shared w/the CT6 V-sport) rather than the V8's used on Camaros and on the former CTS-V.
      The CT6 is made on the larger RWD Omega platform on which it was to spawn a CT8 flagship that now it's not going to be built. The rumored XT6 crossover is most likely from the FWD (C2XX) Epsilon-based "Chi LWB" platform as the new Chevy Traverse fullsized crossover, but with higher output engines and mandatory AWD (still slightly smaller than a regular Escalade).

Pretty sure the high rpm rush would be considered to be a technical deficiency these days.
