Of course, the concept gets the AWD. According to this C&D article,

While the concept sent power to all four wheels, the real GS will only drive its fronts.
FAIL!

The LaCrosse gets AWD and I think it looks awesome too. Plus it comes with 280hp.

This car with G8 GT engine = win.

This turbo 4 crap is novelty.

It makes similar power to my Mazda, but it's likely alot heavier. It would be fun to drive for a daily though, but it won't blow any doors off. An intake and downpipes would probably wake it up, with an ECU tune. It's probably got 2-3 cats on it.

Small motors with turbos are the way of the future.
