Competition is getting fierce. Even the baby Caddy is something to watch out for

The first ATS-V in the 10's with a few bolt-ons, a tune, and a set of 275 DRs runs a 10.96 @ 127mph with a 1.55 60'. Video in the link, plus a bonus vid of a brand new CTS-V with less than 1k miles running an 11.6 @ 122:

And here is an ATS-V with just a tune trapping 122 mph:

Keep your meth tanks topped up.

The upcoming Q50 is also getting a TT 3.6, good for 400hp/350tq and either RWD or AWD. That will also be another modded car to watch out for.

Next thing we know, the Camry will get a 450hp VTEC 3yl hybrid......YO.

honestly in another 10 yrs or so 450 hp cars are gonna extremely common.. just think back to the mid 90s when all the buzz was surrounding the 300 hp GM Northstar engines... and now u have car makers pushing 600 plus on there engines

2004 E55.98 SS Camaro.Jetta TDI. Expedition
New Camaro SS has put down 450 wrhp. A few have reported high 11's with drag set up stock trim. all the times I have seen on them equal the E times stock for stock. Good for a N/A car that's very available and affordable. It's the first time an LS engine has impressed me since 97 when the LS1 hit the market.

Still took ten years.......
Our beasts will always be legit

But yeah, Detroit is producing some serious rides.

Makes me wonder what a $50k E55 could do?
