ergo PRODUCTION sedan
does not neccesarily? You are kidding?

It either does or it doesn't. No inbetween. So which is it? (just be aware that this is a setup question).

as for comparo,

weight are about the same
power about the same (no SAE number for CTS-V so we will see).
priced about the same

One has two doors less. And because of that it is classified as a sport car instead of something else.

you guys are funny!

Re: Nurburgring 7:59.32

SHUT UP ABOUT THE GT-R.

It's a coupe.

It's not a luxury vehicle.

It has no real back seat.

It has a punishing ride.

It is not, nor will it ever be a car that people in their right mind compare to a 4 door, luxury equipped CTS-V. The article specifically said "4-Door sedan", which the GT-R is not. This forum was nearly ruined by all the stupid GT-R posts- don't take us there again. If you want to talk about the GT-R, then GTFO and go find a GT-R forum.

listen

I could care less bout the "GT-r " as I consider that car does not have enough power. But I am a stickler for semantics.

Then you should understand the difference between an AWD coupe bred to be a race car and a RWD luxury sedan with ridiculous amounts of thrust.

The comparison couldn't be more inappropriate or ludicrous, and I'm sick to death of every thread on every car forum on the entire Internet getting spammed up with GT-R comparisons.
