...smoothest regime-change scenario--a coup from within Saddam's own military ranks--is the least likely. At least six such coups have been attempted in the past decade, and all have failed miserably. With internal intelligence and security services at his disposal, Saddam has recently stepped up the pace of military purges, shifting around or simply executing any popular, effective officer who posed a potential threat. That leaves classic warfare as the only real alternative to a proxy...

...General Motors touts the CTS as a BMW fighter, and for once, they may be able to sustain the claim. Its 3.2 liter V6 engine is tied to one of the smoothest, tightest automatic 5 speed transmissions around (secret: it's the same transmission offered on the Bimmer 5-series) and the suspension is tuned like a cherished Stradivarius.
