I went to the Atlanta Auto show today.
Drove the following cars: Cadillac ELR, CTS V-Sport, Chevy Impala, Buick Regal GS, Mazda3, VW GTI, Passat TDI, Dodge Dart.
Favorite overall was the CTS V-Sport. Not that it had a lot of competition. Outside of the ELR, it was about twice as expensive and significantly more powerful than anything else I drove. Favorite as far as cars I could realistically purchase was the Impala. If I were in the market for a new car, I'd probably be looking at that, unless I decided I wanted a small hatchback. Then I'd probably go for the Mazda3. Fun little car.
They also had this thing where you rode in a Jeep (I think they had a Wrangler, Liberty, and Grand Cherokee) and the driver took it through an obstacle course that demonstrated its capabilities. Kind of lame that we couldn't drive it through that, but probably for the best. All it takes is one idiot to screw it up.
