Sweet car!

The 2016 CTS-V is such a good looking car. I would absolutely love to have one parked in my garage. Just a mean looking sedan. Maybe the meanest looking of them all. The was an awesome run.

Seems like a lot of mods to get into the 10s. Rather a Charger hellcat and get close to 10s stock or easy mods to be just as fast as this ctsv

I think I am kinda digging the ATS-V...

I agree with it being a lengthy list of mods to run 10s. Oh well, still getting it done though.

 

[RedRocketMike]

Nice of GM to not rob buyers of the feeling that goes with being the first into the 10's. Dodge was so inconsiderate with the Hellcats.

Comparing the new CTS-V to a Hellcat is like comparing apples to retarded.

 

[Rainmaker]

That car had alot of work done just to get it into mid-10's. I know it is a big full size luxury sedan, but it does have an LT4 in it and 640 HP from the factory.

I agree. The new V's just don't do it for me like the previous gen. Badass car no doubt, but not for me.

Why?

Both 4 door American sedans that cost 70k+?

 

[LD5050]

Ron White's logic is pretty ironclad.

 

[Z28]

Why?

I assume he is implying that the CTS-V is more of a luxury sedan than the Hellcat.

You think the Hellcat is that big of a POS? Seems pretty harsh.

 

[LD5050]

Not at all. One is a luxury car with a demographic that's largely separate from the other.

He could get a TT foxbody if it was just about hauling ass.

 

[myke hunt]

HC and CTS-V to me are direct competitors in their respective roles

 

[VNOMIS]

I expecting more with those mods. :shrug:

Close to 10's? Hellcats have ran 10.6-10.8's bone stock other than a drag radial.

With just pullies they go low 10's, high 9's. A charger went 9.7@143.

Thats a HUGE mod list. There hasn't even been a hellcat with that much work done to it yet. Id imagine they'd run mid-low 9's with those mods.

Hell the previous Gen V's would have likely ran 9's with those mods.

If you don't think these cars are directly competing for the same buyers you are clueless.

 

[LD5050]

Just like Blackwoods and Lightnings were competing for the same buyers. They're both trucks, after all.

And clueless is even thinking a decent percentage of the CTS-V owners ever considered a Hellcat.
