Default An LS6 6-Speed Cadillac? yup, it's a CTS-V

If anyone cares, I was at a local car show today and saw the Cadillac and Hummer dealer goods among everything else. I hear "Caddy with 'vette engine" in the background. Its a Cadillac CTS with an LS6 and 6-Speed trans, called CTS-V. With 400hp and 395lb-ft they claim 0-60 in 4.6 seconds and 1/4 mile in 13.1 seconds @ 107mph. They also tweaked the suspension and threw on big brakes. I'm not big on the Caddy chiseled and tall tail styling, but hey this is getting better.

I'm thinking that was what I saw @ the hospital the other day? As I was headed to the parking lot I saw a black car slink by with a decent exhaust note, and then notice it was a new Caddy. Not my cup of tea, but headed in the right direction...

There was a road test on Saturday morning on Speed.
Boy that thing is nice with 14" Brembo brakes, and 400 HP they said it will stop as quick as a 996. Sure beats the hell out of the Catera.
