My daily driver is a 2009 CTS-V. I honestly enjoy driving this car just as much as my 2009 Z06. While it isn't as fast as the Z, I consider it a better car. It does everything well, and can easily hurt some feelings on the highway.

As for "grandpa" status, I don't remember any Cadillacs that looked grandpa like mine does. Lowered on D3 springs, and rolling on HRE 20" wheels.







SW, I'd run my little Caddy against your stroked M5

I'm really digging the CTS-V's. Awesome cars in my opinion. Won't do much good in the Northeast without a second beater car for the winter.
As are all your rides Tony, the CTS-V looks great!

Here's a curve ball for you guys. I bought a 2010 Audi S4 yesterday. I've been a BMW guy for 6 years. This car has me hooked on driving like I've never been before. It's so damn fun and refined. 0-60 in under 5 seconds with all wheel drive and pulls down 18/27 mpg. Interior is top notch and all the gadgets are really bitchin. The sound system is unreal in this thing. I didn't know the car existed 4 days ago. I went over and test drove it and drove it home.
It's Meteor Gray.

Nice car Todd! Congrats. I'm an Audi fan as well. The S line is a great Audi line. I LOVE the Audi A4's!! The RS's are VERY NICE! (a bit out of my price range, but very nice!)
Congrats and good luck with it!!

I have also recently been converted to an AUDI fan. We bought an '06 A4 2T as her daily driver and after using that car for a year I am seriously considering a future upgrade to a better faster AUDI like the S4.

I just changed the oil in her car last night for the first time and got a good look under the car, and wow is it.... um... unique.

Oh, and these things are unstopable in the snow for those that live in such an environment

I test drove one -- nice car. I rejected it because the backseat is too small for what I wanted otherwise I'd have bought one. You're right - very well engineered and was fun to drive. Too bad they don't make the A8 anymore for the US market.
