I don't hear any buzzing as I blast the radio or hear a squeek in the dash as I go over a bump?


Why would the zr1 do that?


Most of the time maybe I'm laughing too hard as I hammer this beast? Could be the ZR1 would be even more insane..? (maybe its the aluminum chassis?)

You would smile a lot more in your Caddy if it had 550 hp under the hood, my Escalade's walk away from standard CTS's, that makes me smile [Wink]

I don't know as I don't race the AWD CTS with 304hp...yet I seem to remember the STOCK zero to 60 run in around 6 seconds.

Its not too shabby and the handling of this FE2 sedan is very impressive....

I like it. Although had an AWD L99 400hp v8 been available in a CTS Sport...I would have bought that instead..

I've never been a huge fan of dohc v6 motors as compared to a 400hp V8...

Cadillac has yet to offer this sport model yet..

I'm just glad to be out of trucks for the family hauler..

Makes family outings a lot more fun to drive.

Good looking sports sedan too.

I see the corvette lost the drifting contest too..(in road and track)

I have to say drifting must be one of the dumbest sport contest yet..
