Oh my...

Saw this testing today here in sunny so-cal.

This summer, if you come come upon this Cadillac, think twice before racing.



You know the little CTS? Well Caddy is coming out with the "V Series" CTS tis summer.



Check this out, HP = 400, Torque is 450

It has the 5.7 engine from the Z06 !!!

Can you say pocket rocket?

I think I want one!!!!

Different strokes for different folks. I think this thing is fugly. And as for staying clear of it if you come upon it in traffic, I always stay away from Cadillac products so as not to get hit by the parts that eventually fall off of them.

An M series killer, get real!

Don't like the looks of the car. Body looks too tall and front is still fugly. Too "modern edge" for me.

But then again, it's hard to argue with an LS6

Please say it comes with the same 6-spd instead of the current 5...

But then again I'm biased....
