Courtesy Car

Post by MartynC » Wed Mar 04, 2009 3:39 pm

Had a C6 as a courtesy car this morning whilst mine was in for service.

I don't think it's as quick off the mark as my Plus but it certainly pulls higher up the speed range and I think would leave mine above 80ish. Steering seemed a somewhat 'dead' around the centre position and indeed a little heavy. Excellent handling for what is a very heavy car, couldn't take the ride in sport setting however, suspect only usable on really smooth roads. Brakes need some pushing too from high speeds.

Exhaust noise a little quite as well and though I love the noise when it changes gear under full load, I still prefer the sound of a V8.

Super machine: Would I spend what I would need too to change?.....Not at the moment I think.
