I get GM Employee Pricing. ATS-V, CTS-V or Z06?

As much as I love my Evo, I feel silly not using the incredibly large discount I get on a new GM vehicle. I'm going to take the bite on a big boy toy sometime soon here. Could be tomorrow, could be Christmas.

I won't get exact into pricing, but based on what I'm seeing I would get the ATS-V for about 20K less than the CTS-V or Z06.

I strongly prefer the Z06, but 20K is

I trade too often for 20K in mods to look appealing.

GMS is a stout discount. Enough that I think I have to sign a form saying I won't trade within a year.

My point was that I think GM products are garbage. Corvette for example, $60k plus car, interior noise level at 70mph cruise is the same as a stock Evo at 71ish decibels.

Same. Except no Ford's. Eventually I'll have a Ford or Dodge truck though. Won't be a GM that's for sure. It's the only car brand I truly dislike.

cts-v for family car or wanting a sophisticated, mature ride with serious attitude.

z06 if no rugrats and/or wanting what is arguably a grown up no-holds-barred sports car.

for where i'm at in life, i'd go with a mildly modded cts-v.

The new CTS-V only has slushbox transmissions, so it should not be even on the list.

The other two are great. Also consider Camaro Z/28 and the new(?) Camaro's hardcore series, which should come out in a year or two.

What's wrong with the slushbox? Launchomatic.
