2009 Cadillac CTS-V at Nurburgring record

The STI Spec-C managed the same time of 7:59:xxx
This is amazing for a large sedan. The say unofficially the best time for a sedan (or saloon as they call it).

They've been trying to be competitive in that sport luxury M3 market for years but have never been successful. I guess they've finally come around.


The only thing I dislike about GM is that they always skimp on quality somewhere on the car that's important. The z06 Vette for instance has a nice leather interior that doesn't look cheesy at first glance, and their materials are evolving, but it still has that stupid plastic dash feel when you start playing with switches and forth. I don't understand why they can't just follow through on all the materials. They always come so close.


So did you get that used one you were talking about earlier?

Reid-o,
Here's a site for the most sexiest exterior styling that keeps me awake at night: http://www.d3cadillac.com/
It seems there are many companies building motor packages for the right price.
