Got my New Car and Driver today (Caddy test)
CD for November 2008 has full test of the new Caddy CTS-V. Honestly, not that impressed with 0-60 or the QTR miles times of 4.0 (auto) and 12.6 at 116 for a 556 HP car.(we got modded C32s doing that now) They compared it to the E63 and M5 quite a few times in the test. Check out the full test on Page 82 and on.

The 6-speed has a bit more life in it I suppose, but the Auto is what you'll see most of on the road. This thing's looking like a paper tiger right now, and the next generation of ///M and AMG cars are going to swallow it up.

Real close to that!!! Just relating a small comparison. E63s have gone faster and quicker than what CD tested on the CTS-V. (FYI, hasn't Loungin done a 12.4 @ 110 and FongFlex 12.33 at 114??? in their C32s).

Personally, I am just waiting until something actually catches air and fly's before I buy another car.

Get the Motor Trend issue where the cts-v takes on the m-5 around a track. Guys remember when MB advertised our cars they said 0-60 - 4.5 and 12.4 1/4 @ 114 we all know there are plenty of us that are quicker and faster.
