Found an interesting review on the corvette with their new magnetically controlled shocks.

Yeah, this technology looks awesome. I saw a report about it on Autoweek a while back and they showed two identical cars: one with Magnetic Selective Ride Control and the other without. The effect of MSRC was visibly noticeable. Rebound was cut down massively and the car looked WAY more stable overall.

This tech. will definitely improve the "automobile" once other manufacturers adopt this GM innovation. I hope GM gets smart and capitalizes on having this tech. first.

GM is a great innovator, but most of their domestics still kinda suck. Z06 exluded.
