It's been awhile... What's everyone up to?

Haven't posted in here god knows how long...

Still have my Camaro, haven't modified it much at all as I hardly drive it anymore. No plans to sell it but it just doesn't see much action anymore.


Picked this up back in September - 2014 Cadillac ATS 2.0T - Added a few features, sunroof, AWD, Performance pkg and the convince pkg with lane departure assist and heated steering wheel.

The car is more than fast enough for a daily :rock: one of the best handling cars I've driven, I tried the C class and 3 series but the ATS is hands down the best of the three as a drivers car

What are you guys up too?? What's new?

Re: It's been awhile... What's everyone up to?

Been a long time. This board was really helpful when I was getting my camaro setup for autocross and tracking...lots of good information. Have long sold the car but the memories still remain of how good it was and how helpful this forum is for owners. Loved the braking system in that car ('98 RS Hardtop coupe). And it was fun on track with upgraded suspension and interior weight loss program... just not particularly agile. The 4th gen Camaro will always hold special memories for me.

My daily driver for the past few years (and currently only car) is now the kind of car I always wanted...a purebred sportscar built entirely for driving enjoyment and agility in addition to being a practical daily driver. And after 3 years with it I'm more in love with it than the day I signed for it...

Re: It's been awhile... What's everyone up to?

Had a million issues with my ATS after putting about 6000kms on it the motor blew; 4th piston crack...Apparently I'm not the only one with the cracked piston issue on the 2.0T engine. GM replaced the bad engine with a new crate motor and after about 4 months of headaches, 3 new ECMs and a team of engineers from GM working on the car, GM finally bought the car back. They got me into a brand new 2015 ATS with the same specs for a great price.

It was a huge headache that lasted what seemed like half a year, but finally GM stepped up and bought the car back.
