I hate to burst your bubble but back in 2010/2011 when the new CTS-V came out Caddy did a head to head challenge against BMWs M3 sedan at Monticello. The Caddy edged out the M3 in every category. Needless to say Ze Germans were not happy and immediately packed up and left, they were pissed!
I drove the CTS-V shortly after that and was super impressed. Yes it has more horsepower then the M3 but it weighted a lot more.
I have now tracked a new M3. As of today I think the M3 would win, as I believe that was a wake up call for BMW.
Side note.....I give Caddy props for producing the CTS-V wagon back then. Awesome piece of American muscle machinery in a wagon! They are extremely hard to find now and held their value.
