That is by far the best looking Aztek I have ever seen. :cool:

Prefer the look of the M4 vs ATS-V

I have actually really liked the fact that Caddy has brought out some of these newer cars. Always like there angular designs with these cars. Don't think I would ever own one, but can appreciate them for what they are.

lol @ u guys who are saying the ats will never be like the m4. Stop being marco991

Cars are just a giant wank-fest of who can spend the most to cruise at the speed limit while pointing at stats of their car on a closed track on tires they don't have with driving skills they'll never attain

I drove the balls off my 135i and I have to say the e-diff was absolute shit

Oh it's true. Johnny Lieberman talks about it on a TST podcast. He said that Porsche pulled a quick one and equipped the car with Dunlop sport max race tires(tires found on the gt3) and said that they're a "dealer option". He called around after to a few dealerships in LA to confirm if it was true and the dealerships had no idea what he was talking about.

I'm talking about the actual dials not the little lcd screen. They did the same thing with the 2015 impala and newer caddys too. The caddy colour is just red.

:suspicious: how is that considered a race tire

but pretty funny how porsche pulled a quick one with a r-comp tire

kinda similar to how porsche got their own drivers to drive the gt-r around the nurburgring to see if nissan faked the lap time

Am I the only one who prefers the interior of the Caddy to the Bimmer? That being said the M4 will have a better back seat if that matters.
Caddy has sent the bar high in terms of performance with the regular ATS but the regular car is too expensive and too cramped. The CTS V-Sport is also impressing reviewers but then again the 5 series and E class are also pigs.
M3/M4 however is in a whole other league when compared to the regular 3/4 and I'm not sure how the ATS-V will fair, my guess is the M4 will review marginally better but with a significant price gap (especially when you spec-it out to press car specs), but I will wait for actual reviews to form an opinion.

how is an r-compound track tire not a "race tire" ? are you getting track tires confused with drag radials?

r-compound is definitely not a race tire

and no not being confused with drag radials

race tire imo would be non-dot approved / are just slicks :toot:
