It is a shame that many of us have been waiting for so long for the V2 in the 60K price range and now the price appears to be climbing. I will of course wait for the official prices to come out, but I have a feeling now that I will be requesting my deposit back from my dealer and buying something a bit more in the original price range.
I know i would rather pay 70k for v2 than a roland printer thingy. Seriously, optioned well at 64K and i'm lookin at it. Out the door w/ gg tax and sales tax i dont see how it can be less than 70K. Numbers are not working for me w/ new car sales slumping and gas at 4 bucks.

Climbing? I've never heard GM say anything about price.

It is only .03 sec behind the C6 Z06 on the track and it has more options and more room.
You need to re-check your figures. Make sure you note the driver's and conditions. A C6 Z06 would wipe the floor with a V2 on any track given the same driver and same conditions.

It was a nice American option to the M3 and M5 but it now firmly takes a step above those cars.
Pricing for the M3 starts at $53,800 and hits $68,720 fully loaded.
Pricing for the M5 starts at $82,900 and probably could be optioned into six figures.
70k sound about right...its alot compared to the V1 but if all the problems is fix like they say, its worth it to me. Plus I already promised my wife she can have the new V2 and I drive the old one so I have no choice. Dealership already has my information, just waiting for release...sigh, I want the new one too!
At $70 it is a no for me. I love the car. I love my 05 V and even with 4 rear ends, I'm have trouble thinking of letting it go next year. I think Cadillac really needs to prove they can make a high performance car that performs without the issues we have had with the V1. As the old saying goes fool me once shame on me, fool me twice and no deal (well close enough).
I don't think Cadillac has proven that they can make a car as reliable as the other manufacturers that the car is constantly being compared to, and they need to do that. I'm sure there will be those that disagree with me on that one). Once they have, I think they can easily jump the price of the car to $70. Don't get me wrong, I am still trying to figureout how to get one in my garage next May, but not for $70,000. Can you imagine paying $70,000 for a car and having to replace the rear end ever 12,000-18,000 miles (granted I do not expect this to happen, but)? My wife would kill me.
