if our C32 can win against the CTS-V on the freeway run then there must be something wrong w/ the CTSV's 400hp rating.
BUT from the test by motortrend or was that automobile, the CTS-V didn't do that good off the line. They noted there's axle hop for the CTS-V and it couldn't break the 5.2 second mark. This test was against a Jag StypeR.

The car is hard to launch from a stand still.. it has an ugly wheel-hop problem. But there are (affordable!) aftermarket kits out there which fix the problem about 80% of the time.
The CTS-V is a monster from a rolling start...
