Re: 2009 CTS-V Breaking News

I always thought the old ones looked a little too old mannish for me, but looking at the new remodel I must say they are looking incredible. And who can argue with a 550HP caddy.

Re: 2009 CTS-V Breaking News

Hahaha, I was just about to send this to you Scott. Previous V drove great, even better then E39 M5 imo, 09' V is just going to stomp on Audi/Benz/BMW.

I'm seriously contemplating putting a deposit, but I have other stuff going on.....choices choices choices

That's a lot of power packed under the hood!
A detuned LS9 motor they say. Wow! GM!

Re: 2009 CTS-V Breaking News

I really like the interior design and those seats look awesome. I have to wonder though, how much is it going to cost and why did they have to give it so much power (seems a little over kill to me). I guess I just think it adds fuel to the fire of a horse power war that I feel is a little unhealthy. I can understand giving a car more power with each new generation but when they raise the bar so high each time, they're giving them selfs less room to work in the future because then they have to give the newer generation vehicle even MORE power then the already ridiculously-powerful current generation. Having said all that, when can I give it a test drive ?

Re: 2009 CTS-V Breaking News

That's some breaking news and huge improvement!!!
550 horses, that's a lot!!!
I really hated GM vehicles interior illuminated all in green, reminds me of an old Buick...
Looks like they finally got rid of that!

Re: 2009 CTS-V Breaking News

I hear they "want" to price it below the STS-V (77.9k) in the chain of V cars. That said there is alot of higher priced wares going into this puppy so surely will top the original CTS-V (55K) price tag.
