I've seen a couple on the road (car does look mean), but they wouldn't bite.

yeah but will out handle the E 55, and most mercs hand down,,

cadillac took it to NURENBURG race track recently in germay, where all the car companies and racing teams tune their cars, and test them,
and it ran a 7 min 30 sec around the course, fastest recorded time of ANY
SEDAN, ever in the world..

seriously good handling car.. magnetic shocks and fat sway bars help alot,
its basically a CORVETTE with CAD sheetmetal

same engine, same suspension , electronics etc.

impressive.. to say the least

Almost everything you say is true, but the time you quote is way off. Like 30 seconds off. 7:30 is very close to ZR-1 and GT-R territory. The V is a very impressive performer though.

+1.

The Nurburgring time was 7:59. Still impressive not nowhere near 7:30.

Yup, and still the fastest sedan to track around the Ring, ever.
