550hp/550ftlbs of torque....absolutely ridiculous..

0-60 in 3.5 seconds and 12 seconds flat in the 1/4 mile...

Oh man, if I had the choice between the CTS-V or the C63 AMG I would probably go with the Caddilac! Very impressive piece of American engineering!

Considering the '08 STS-V starts a little over $80k, I think the more powered CTS-V might be around there, or a little higher. But man that thing is going to be fast......

The STS-V is a higher class model. The 2008 CTS-V's were going for around $52k MSRP..

I really like it, but the price tag is retarded.

i also like the look of the new caddies, but lets be honest, theyre not a real threat to people who are actually into performance cars.
