No I don't want a Cadillac, but if I did it would be a V series for sure. My post stated it was tempting....and it was.......the CTS-V was only $15000 more than my G6 GTP, but my hands are tied.......and since no one has offered to buy my Bonnie for 50 grand I guess a temptation it will forever be! 
I totally agree with the general concensus up here.....the CTS-V and STS-V are HOT cars!

FYI for whomever... I don't come into threads (or this board for that matter) with the intent to put down anything. The OP made a comment and I addressed that with my remarks.
The CTS-V is an awesome machine, it'* low point is probably the interior design for some people, but it does damn near everything right.

There'* no comparison in driving pleasure/comfort in comparison. Two TOTALLY different kind of vehicles though. The CTS is a lot sportier.
