Re: Motor Trend tests the CTS-V

Wow! That IS very impressive! And I bet people who drive the car every day will manage even better numbers.. And then imagine with mods? How much is this car going to cost? And when will it be sold?

Re: Motor Trend tests the CTS-V

Sorry Guys looks like my source was off a bit. MT is using an estimate of 4.7 0-60. However, C & D actually tested the car and got that 4.7, so that looks to be the number. Other than that, both articles pointed out how they loved the car, brakes, etc. But of course they both didnt like the interior. Positive reviews overall though

4.6/4.7 - close enough.. Besides, the people who drive and race these cars every day will eventually get slightly better numbers... I'm not surprised about the interior though.. I bet it's cold and hard.. It better not be like a Volkswagon Bug inside... Cold and hard...

Faster than a stock Vette, but not the Corvette Z-06 which shares the same engine/drivetrain. All things being equal, the CTS-V gives up 700 lbs to the Vette, so this is understandable. Still, a 4.7 sec 0-60 launch time for this car is nothing short of incredible.

Depending on who's driving, it's slightly faster than a stock Vette and/or slightly slower than a stock Vette. Either way, it's still Corvette "territory" - unless we want to unofficially determine how many tenths of a second is considered "territory" here at CadillacForums.com...
