Because I don't like turbo diesels...:rofl:

I have on 04 top of the line 4 door HSV Holden as my daily.

They teased us out ere in Oz with the Caddy. They bought in 3 CTS's (not CTS-V's) as RHD. Then killed the program.

The CTS-V was going to be my new daily.

Three cars we just don't get out here:

CTS (of any kind but I would only have the CTS-V)
Camaro
Vette

All 3 would sell out here, but economically we just ain't big enough (population wise) and the brits want all that euro crap....

Do it Todd

They have one down at my local dealer in that graphite color. It's a hot color. :thumbsup: I just don't know if I need a 562hp daily when I have a 666hp missile at my fingertips. Definitely a great buy and not ruling it out just yet. I have 45 days to get a new car bought.

Liar! You love your turbo diesel Ford.
How about a Middle East Spec CTS-V click on mechanical spec. Look at the HP figure and torque!

I was poking fun at your typo -- when you previously posted a CTD-S

:rofl: :woot:

I have driven a few of them, nice car, but I am a BMW guy. I love my M5 and M6.. I agree the M doesn't have the low end power like the Cadillac, that's why I put the 650 hp Dinan stroker motor in the M5 and my M6 is getting Supercharged.The Cadillac is fast, but still doesn't have the fit/finish like the BMW in my opinion. It's a great bang for the buck though. I got to drive Hennesseys CTS-V at his track, if the car had a good clutch in it, I think it would run a 10.8XX..

here's the Video of my run.

I think the M's resale values really speak volumes about them. They're worth about 50% of what they cost.

Here's an ebay ad for a "performance upgrade".... it's a mere 11 GRAND - and all it is.. is headers and an x pipe.. who hoo.... 52 HP...

Sorry -- but that's just SAD... and I'm a loyal (since 1976) BMW owner.

A big negative on Hennessey... most of the stuff I've seen from his shop - doesn't last very long - and many times scores a DNF in heads up testing... While it usually makes big "numbers" -- there's a lot to be said for RELIABILITY...

If I was that worried about resale, I would own half the cars I own..LOL! The question here is about M5/CTS-V. They are both great cars, but owning 3 M's, wife just got a X5M and spending time behind the wheel of several CTS-Vs, I still prefer the M car, just my opinion.

You may be talking in the past, he has a new partner and the quality is much better now. They are doing about 20 cars a month out of their shop.
