I asked the dealership to switch the oil to synthetic and it did the one wheel wonder if I gunned it at a complete stop. I had mine reprogrammed with a VMP 91 performance tune and it peels out every time whenI pushon the gas pedala little hardfrom acomplete stop.

Verts do weigh a little more then coupes due to the reinforcng the body has to have to make it stable. To solve your fail to peel out situation, get a tuner and a CAI.

I have a 07 vert... and I couldnt get the thing to spin a tire even if i brake torqued it....i remember once i was going around a corner and it spun a tire..i thought "wow", but seriously a auto vert 6 will not spin a tire. However, since i put my CAI/TUNE.... i can roast the tires if i want...

funny now that I know the car will spin a tire, now I never do it...

The V6 performance package from vmptuning.com runs about $600.00 for the Xcal, the CAI and a GT muffler. Money well spent!

that my friend seems to be the curse of the auto...

its a shame so few of our cars are manufactured stick... a sales rep told meonly 10-20% of V6's come with a standard...
Man I did not know that I feel lucky I have one. I did test drive an Auto before I found my Manual and I was not happy with the auto but was quite suprised when I test drove my Manual
