Yeah, namely the driver laughs as he drives circles around your precious 5-series.

Grow up.

Hmm....one guy likes a car based on looks and how they drive........I assume ride quality

A group of others are in love with the CTS....and speed/performance

No one is right or wrong, but the topic is "what do you think....?"...not, "what do you like...?"

Leaves it open for ppl who like it or don't like it.

I think the car looks okay, but for 55k-60k(price found online real quick) I think I would get something else. Too much HP. I prefer smaller luxuries and a quiet quiet ride that is a cloud. Not sure what I would get though...

Ah you're just pissed the CTS-V wiped the floor with the "vaunted" M5.

Yea it's crappy.



Compare that to this mess:







To the OP: What do I think? I think GM has world worthy and beating cars now and folks are not quiet sure what to do with the lanky 15 year old that showed up to the 10 year reunion as a stunning knock out.

CTS-V stomped the M5
The ZR1 just took a Ferrari 599GTB (three times the cost) out in Motortrend in just about every category.
The G8 GXP will give an M3 a run for it's money at half the price.

The Malibu is better than anything Toyota or Honda can produce right now.

The Chevy Volt has Toyota scrambling to catch up.

GM is on the right track. If they would just file Chapter 11, get rid of the leaches sucking the life out of them and reorganize WITHOUT a Gov bailout things would be perfect.

Well I dont drive an M5, so that doesn't offend me at all. As I said, I dont care how fast it is. If it looks like crap, it's irrelevant...

I'd laugh as the driver driving 'circles' around me forgets he's on the road and gets into an accident...

Malibu better than Accord? I dunno...I like coupes and the Accord coupe is very nice IMO.
THis coming from someone who drives a new Civic coupe....I didn't even have to consider the Cobalt or other American cars.

The best looking caddy ever roll out. Just too small for me. Now the STS V is just right. 80k is just too much money for a caddy. I'll rather just buy a Viper or Z06.
