    Out of those? I would have to say the cts-v. I hate it's boxy look but it's an amazing car.

    None of the above

    #1 because GM
    #2 because GM
    #3 because slow
    #4 because GM
    #5 because GM

    Look for an Infiniti G37 or something along those lines. They can be had in the $15,000 range.

    I can agree with the g37. Awesome car. I'm looking to purchase a g35 in a few months.

    I am on a Grand Prix forum because I (regretfully) own a Grand Prix.

    I recommended the Infiniti because it is a better car than the original choices.

    But, how is it when it comes to replacing something? Are parts easily attainable?

    What bluemagic said. Why would parts be hard to get? Infiniti is Nissan, just like Lexus is Toyota, just like Acura is Honda.

    But gm products suffer from lack of quality and poor builds. Yea they have there good models but you listed a cobalt. Fast yes. Good car? From what I've heard and seen? No.

    Guess depends on taste and how far you want to push the cars. Stock 6spd mt g37 coupe has about 330hp base before mods with the Rev up engine.
