    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.

    This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....

    I'm not sure on that one...I was referring to best o/a Cali including reliability, features, performance...V6 = best o/a package !!!

    Although I think in nuggz's post, he was referring to reliabilty Click here to enlarge

    I know Adam's previous Cali T well but am confident Adam feels safer with his current V6 to his previous Cali T in this regard Click here to enlarge

    ohhhh dont make me choose Click here to enlarge

    i have fairly even pro's and cons for both:

    my turbo = power + leather + manual
    my v6 = no power + cloth + auto

    my v6 is finished nicer than the turbo was, but when u think about it, they are both essentially the same car, just diff motors/interiors

    ive spent far into the 000's to get my v6 back up to scratch, and beleive me, its been VERY reliable since, its just not as fast as i would like it to be Click here to enlarge

    this is somethig i couldnt pick. because i would want BOTH Click here to enlarge
    add the X25XE and X20XEV to those lists too since im feeling greedy lol

    Fair enough, sorry for putting you on the spot Click here to enlarge

    And no power ??? ok compared to the turbo, but at least your ahead of the basic 16V Click here to enlarge

    More than happy with mine in that regard, have surprised many another car types with it Click here to enlarge

    Also unlike Europe we never got the choice to option up to leather on the V6...typical bloody GMH Click here to enlarge
