That leaves C63 owners scratching their rears after it wins in the 1/4 mile and around your local racing circuit. All joking aside the USA built a car I can say I am proud to see. That car actually has a nice interior (no its likely not as well thought out as a C63) and it looks pretty mean as well.

Add to that that nice 550 hp motor and you have a wicked little beast with a lot of power left on the table.

There still is hope for the future of GM if they can start designing more quality cars.

We shall see I guess.

I'll stick with the AMG. In my city I would get profiled for driving a Cadillac anyway.

Ya think To each his/her own. Looks are subjective but I think the car looks very plasticky and way too symetrical. Oh well, just one man's opinion.

BTW, best of luck with the 650.

yes, that is EXACTLY what's preventing me from considering it! If it looked anything like an M3 or Merc...I'd be all over it!

...Same story as when the old CTS-V came out. I test drove it right away and thought it was WEAK SAUCE compared to the E39 M5 I was also looking at. On paper, the CTS-V appeared to have the advantage. Honestly, there was no comparison. Wait until you drive one to make a decision.

I love Cadillacs and currently own a new body Escalade. It is infinitely more reliable than many of the other cars I have owned. I just take it in for occasional oil changes and what not. Just what I wanted... no drama. I certainly like the direction Cadillac has taken over the past couple years in terms of the style and reliability of their vehicles.

Anyways, the new CTS looks bad @ss on the road. The picture that was posted is not very flattering. A new black CTS-V will look equally as dope, albeit different, as a C63. As far as speed, I will hold my judgment for now...
