Teasers? Isn't that what they did last December when this thread started? Why would we need teasers? What we need is a price and cars at the dealers for sale.

So with the announcement of turbo motors coming, who will be skipping this generation of the GS F? I think I am... might as well wait for the good one!

I think I need to get my childhood dream of owning a Corvette over with then when the next GS F is out I'll switch back

dont get your hopes up. With CAFE standards high, there may not be another gs-f with this big a motor. Next generation they may only make an ISF, no one knows. Just live and get whatever u want.

That's the great thing about turbos... they can get great mileage. People are logging over 30 mpg highway with the new twin turbo 4.0L.
