DAM no gray[like the GS3 sportdesign]
anyway ill take black on gray
this car is looking better and better, these pics dont do nothing until you see it in person - looks nothing like a altima/maxima -
I can see it now blk on gray, 20" deep dish,roof spoiler,grill,drop,dark tint - will look off the hook
wonder if it can fit bigger then 20's

Color choices
O.k. My choice would be 1) Matador Red 2)Quarts Shadow 3)Glacier Frost, in that order with charcoal/blackwood interior. I think I would change the carpet to black on that interior though.

Does anybody know what improvements or revisions are going to be made to the GS' frame/chassis? How much (if any) stiffer is it going to be in torsional and bending rigidity? Any new chassis technologies such as hydroformed subframe sections and such? And improvements to the suspension to make the ride smoother while simultaneously making the handling better?
I really like GM's new magnetically selective shock absorbers. They can change their individual stifness in a few thousandths of a second to make going over a bump 'softer' yet controlling the after shock afterward to keep the car from being 'floaty', and to adjust the suspension at all 4 wheels independently around corners to keep things at their peak.
It's like having a monkey under your car that changes out your shock absorbers from 'stock soft' to 'aftermarket stick', one at a time, in the blink of an eye depending on the road ahead.
