Cadillac?
hey guys,
I just ran into my work 'neighbor' and he was driving a CTS-V
He said it was a very nice car and was pretty happy with it, considering he used to drive an '02 M5.
0-60 in 4.6
1/4 in 13.1
That sounds pretty competitive especially in the c-class market.
Also it has 4-piston brembos (front AND rear) and every option for.......$52k
Enjoy,
TB
P.S.- I would never have considered an american car but this one I'm interested to test drive.

Well, you must have already gotten past the CTS-V's "looks" so take a test drive. From what I have read, I am sure it is a good performing car. At $52K it isn't exactly a "steal" and I really couldn't see trading an M5 for one, but that is just me. The CTS-V SUPPOSEDLY ran 8min 19 sec at Nordschliefe, fast as M3, and quite a bit faster than M5 or C32. (all stock)

0-60mph is more like 5.2sec. All the tests run by the mags have suffered from terrible wheel hop on launch. They say it is only a matter of time before it spits out an axle.
