Who's sticker was north of 50 grand. Yes it is well built,road noise so quiet
you could hear a pin drop,and had a ride so smooth you couldn't spill your
coffee if you tried to.anyway here's my point. I know it's faster from 0-60 but it
damn sure didn't fill like it and the exhaust note sucked. And the 370 7AT
hands down imho is a whole lot better slush box. You know how a car feels
quicker and is more in tune with the road. to me that was what i took away from the test drive. . and no i'm not saying the 370 is a better car.......long story short we drive our cars everyday and sometimes take them for granted...for me not anymore....sorry to ramble.....

As fast as the CTS V is, it wasnt meant to feel like a sports car but a lux car that is fast. Hence the not so sporty ride feel. You actually get the best of both with this car, speed and a fine ride, but you dont get that sports car feel.
