Meh just wait till VRP tuning or Victor is done with my car... I'll make sure to provide you with Dynos

I'm not trying to compete with CTV in anyway... this car is A beast and will be Monsterous after some slight tuning btw. Just not my cup of tea... I'm waiting on new E class AMG... E50 probably.

I do not agree... I rank BMW a BMW and Mercedes a Mercedes... they both on 1st place... its just that they have different philosophies on building their cars! Thats how I see it... BMW builds them Sport oriented and Mercedes builds them Comfort oriented, they are both great at what they meant to do... they just deliver it in their own character.



The perfect car would be a bmw with mercedes engine

M5 with 6.3 and DSG.

Car Whore
the caddy does benefit from having an already supercharged engine, plus its detuned, just like the c63. so you re-tune the c63 you are up to same level as stock cts-v, but you re-tune cts-v and you are a lot higher

the interior picture looks pretty sick honestly...

The interior is great but the outside looks like something Huggy Bear would try and impress Hutch with and fail miserably. It's a good job it's so fast just so you can escape the laughter.

If you really want a fast 4 door you get the Brabus Bullit, not some limo better suited to ferrying Club class passengers from JFK to Manhattan.

Have I said how bad it looks? Let me say it one more time. It looks crass. It is as cool as a dose of chlamydia.

Regards

Andy

Yeah, if you really want a fast 4-door, you go spend $500k+. Yep, that's what most people would do.

I think its 'natural' competitors are the E63 and the M5, but it seems to get brought into the M3 and C63 discussions frequently.

That would be your whip Bobby. I was just thinking about it. This thing is going to absolutely smash a lot of other cars.

What I like!
This place sounds like CorvetteForum. Lots of talk about dragstrip times and HP increases. I'm fresh from M3post... just my noob observation, g'head and hate me, I can take it!

haha.... so many of you are just hating on the cts-v b/c its American; i dont blame you for that. The old cts-v had reliability issues, but the supercharged amg's also have had their share of problems with the supercharger. I'd say the reliability between the two previous gen cars are about equal. Btw, this new caddy interior KILLS the C63's and 550+ hp???? BTW that interior sooooo makes up for the fugly exterior... the center console almost looks like something from Infiniti..
