Oh wait, Caddy puts an LSD in their CTS-V as standard, and the sunroof is an OPTION!!!!

The 07 CTS-V uses the LS2 and has a" heavy-duty, increased diameter, 70-mm prop shaft is used for the higher torque requirements."
Sebah Racing seems to want to race an RS Spyder next year.

Porsche needs to STEP UP!!! the last time I saw porsche 'going for it' was Petit Le Mans 98' I was standing about 20 feet from the take off point saw the whole thing. I pretty much went to see the GT1 and blast off!! I almost went home :-(
I thought 07' would be the year they get their !@#$ together......
Hey - lay off the cabs...

Peugeot will build their own monocoque unlike Audi which has Dallara build the R10's monocoque. They might go to the 55th Twelve Hours of Sebring next year.

Penske added that the team will once again forgo the 24 Hours of Le Mans – where a revamped version of the RS Spyder will be available to customer teams for the first time –

The Spyders are not cheap and the factory will not sell them to anyone with a big wallet. The last I've read has six or seven sold with two going to US based teams.
