2011 Cadillac CTS Coupe 0-60 in 3.9 sec! Does anyone know what engine GM is putting in it. It hasn't been that long when 0-60 in under 6 sec was the benchmark. i'll be more care with the next 4 door i mess with. just kidding safety first. |

No surprise, it is an impresssive car even at the regular trim, nice for DD.
The CTS-V is a monster but too expensive.

I'm in love with the performance, but at odds with the styling - not the shape, but the chrome, and something else. The coupe is much more appealing than the sedan, but I guess that's usually the case.
Love the center mounted exhaust though - that works on that car.

I guess I have a problem agreeing with this statement. I have never thought of the Vette as an exclusive car. Maybe the Z-0 series, but every other garage in my neighborhood houses one and you see them as often as Mustangs on the street. My Z is more unique than any of the Vettes will be.

It's not your fathers Cadillac, that's for sure. I am looking forward to meeting one in the twistys. As soon as the straight aways show up, its all over.
For the money I'd pony up a little more and grab the GTR, but I am predjudiced against the thought of, being old enough, to consider a caddy. It is nice to see GM competing with Germany, and the world.

Nah, they just drop in the 5.0L V8 and call it an Infiniti FX50.

Very impressive numbers and car, just not my style.
