remember the catera (can tear up)? then the cts, (cateras twin sister).
the 3.0 and 3.2 litre v6 was nothing but junk.

This one has the 3.6, decent engine lots of power but about a liter of oil to every 1000km. Everytime I look at the thing it costs me money. You have to pull the intake just to change the plugs. Can't change the headlight bulbs without dropping the bumper and fascia to get the headlight out. Need a new U-joint?? Well these are guibos, rubber doughnut looking things and aren't available aftermarket but GM will sell you the whole drive shaft. This is just the start too. There isn't enough room on this page to cover my bitchin.


Good start to the month guys , keep it coming.

That's where the cache comes in E_D, might only be 10 pts but it's 10 pts
 
Nice run Johan!

10 points is 10 points, surely. But 10 points out of 6,000...I'd rather lower the cache and push on the cpu for better results personally. But if its not holding anything back...+10 points ftw!

I agree that sometimes it can hold you back but it does need a balance.
 
I may update this tonight if the system doesn't fight me for the next bit...

Nice run E_D, just a fun little bench isn't it and one that the FX actually score fairly well with.

@opty if you're on Win764 the 64 bit JRE will make a big difference
