I love this car, after wanting a stick shift for nearly 23 years, I finally got everything I wanted in one package.In the past one can only get a stick with a 4 cyl. or some economical package. Bravo Cadillac for making this car!

This vehicle is fun to drive fast, and it does not attract undue attention. The acceleration is very strong, allowing you to make passes like a motorcycle, and the brakes are very effective. Handling controls allow you to throw it around without concern, and you can turn them off if you really want to get sideways. You can sell it to your wife as a nice sensible family sedan if you keep it quiet when she's onboard.

Let me preface this by saying that I am a German car snob. My most recent car was a 2001 Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG. I have also had a BMW 540i, Porsche 996, Porsche 993, etc. This car really takes the cake. It is VERY fast, handles great and rides stiff but not too much so. The motor makes power everywhere. You are in 4th and roll up to a stop sign - no problem the torque will pull you away from a dead stop. You are always in the right gear. Kudos to the overdrive gear. At 75mph you are barely turning 2,000 rpm so I often get nearly 27 MPG. The seats are comfortable, although they could use more lateral support. The brakes are the best I have ever had on a 4 door car. GM really got this one right. Thanks to Bob Lutz. I do not miss the E55.

I ordered this car six months before it was available. I grew anxious and impulse and bought a new Volvo S060R which was very nice but one drive of the 'V' and back went the Volvo to the dealership the S60 went, costing me over $5,000 for five weeks ownership. That is a lot of money, but the CTS- V is definetely a car with a soul that does was you want when you want and was well worth paying for my mistake. If fuel economy is your reason d'etre this is not your car. If however, high lateral grip, stupendous braking and ulta quick acceleration are on your list of priorities, you need look no further. And, it's Made in the USA.

I love my CTS-V. It is comfortable to drive and fun to drive HARD into turns. It has perfect balance. The only problem is paint rubbing off of the radio knobs and a rear end bearing failure. It has lots of wheel hop on a hard standing start, especially on wet pavement. I want a new '07 or '08 because of the 100,000 mile warranty. I plan to buy another one as soon this one's goes out of warranty..
Great Car

While a fast, nice car, people who compare it to a Chevrolet Corvette are crazy. Yes it may share the same motor as the Corvette, but its 0-60 MPH time is slower. I am not saying it isn't a fast car, but I have taken my 2004 Corvette Convertible, Corvette Z06 and CTS-V to the track the Corvette Convertible does 0-60 in 4.6 seconds, the the Z06 does it in 4.2 seconds, where as the CTS-V does it in 5.0 seconds.
