Yea if you are remotely broad shouldered they are pretty uncomfortable.

I doubt it.

You might not necessarily want the Recaros included with the ST2.

Yea the 2.0 EB is pretty reliable overall.

I think the verdict was the stock tune is garbage on the 2.3 and runs pretty lean.

I think the takeaway from these anecdotes is that if you rape and abuse the MS6, it works just fine. But if you baby it, it hates you and shits the bed.

This thing looks badass.

Best Chevy ad I've ever seen.

Shmee seems like a really nice guy and I really enjoy his videos.

That's not the final livery.

Nice! I've thought about getting one, although now I'm a little uncertain as I'll be putting a lot of miles/year on one.

And most guys who tune their STs will just slap a turbo on and get near 400 bhp out of the 2.0. Albeit, you can't just slap a turbo on without upgrading clutch, etc.

Do you like your X? Any issues with it?

AWD makes more sense for the US market as the Evo is leaving the market.

Ford confirmed its coming to the US months ago.

It's confirmed as coming to the US.

Regardless, Ford's turbo motors don't lag. Most twin turbo modern 6-cylinder motors don't lag like crazy.

This could all have been avoided if BMW and Merc created a separate sport division for these other models.

Things he's not too keen on include four-cylinder M engines and M cars built from on the new front-wheel drive UKL platform, but the latter would be possible "if we can make it sharp enough."

The EB motors are notorious for how quickly they spool up. It's almost immediate.
