Everybody seems to be pointing out that the Cadillac CTS-v appears to be an M5 beater. Outrage is necessary, don’t you think? I mean, so…. okay, the Caddy has more power and speed, better looks, a better transmission, and will cost less money. But what else have you got?
The M5 has a button that unlocks an extra 100 horsepower from its V10 – yes, ten cylinders in a V formation. BMW’s super sedan is also the ‘Ring taxi at the Nurburgring, the car of choice to frighten passengers on a track where Cadillac points so that you know about GM’s development time for the CTS-v. GoodCarBadCar.net has posted extensively on the CTS-v this morning and it’s past time that a little bit of M5 action was shown. The clip is below.
Nose up, M5 drivers. Chin up, CTS-v drivers.
