Default Re: Should I trade my CTS-V for a Z28?

Both are amazing performance cars. The Cadillac is a refined, posh performer. It handles far beyond the capabilities of most drivers. The Z28 has a hard edge, you can hear the wine of the 3.73 gears due to lack of sound insulation, you feel all the groves and imperfections in the road through the steering wheel and butt meter.

The Z28 Handles better than 90% of its drivers. Getting the most out of either of these cars on a road course will require a very high degree of experience and competency.

The Z28 also has a more muscular exhaust note from idle to redine. You feel like your going fast in the Z28, not so much in the CTSV. The V surprises you as to how fast you are moving.

Both cars are easily upgradable in the performance department. The NicKey Stage II LSA option yields 850 hp and our Stage III Z28 naturally aspirated option is at 700hp.

One thing is for certain, I wouldn't leave either of them stock......GM left too much room for improvement.
