GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi there, I´m a german and I know they had at the Nuerburgring over a year ago the STS V, XLR V and the 505 hp CTS V there.

These cars are absolutely great.

Thanks
Harry

8:30 is good.

I believe I read somewhere that the previous generation was 8:19 and I think most hoped the STS-V would have beat that time.

It's a good run, but those 11 seconds are going to add to the euro-bash that proceeds this car. They rarely give us any credit for making a good product.

Geez! I saw that too; nearly 470HP in a Cadillac! Here's the video:

Wonder if it will beat the CTS-V's 8:19?

No, the STS-V ring time is 8:30.

About the article, I'm wondering. Bbobyinski was gone quite a while there, and the guy who drove the STS-V around the country was a developmental engineer, so my question to mr. Bbobyinski is....

Was that guy you? :)

That is decidely weird. I typed Bbobyinski in twice, and it came out Sal Callaziono both times.


Cue the twilight zone music....
