Especially if the early pricing estimates turn out to be true for the CTS-V and it's priced 10-15k above the Hellcat.
Of course it will be more than the Hellcat Charger, it's a luxury car, not a mainstream brand. Don't pretend anyone is cross-shopping these cars. The Cadillac will offer a luxury interior, superior handling, refinement, driver engagement and dominate the Fatcats on anything with turns. Funny how you mention the 11.2 by C&D but not the 11.8 @ 124mph by MotorTrend?? Slight omission right?

"Pricing is expected to come in at around $85K, which will save you five figures or so versus the German rivals."

I must have missed the part where Car&Driver identified the source for this information?? Cadillac told them this? Car&Driver prices cars for Cadillac? Ohhhh, it's speculation, I see.

If it's only $20k more it will be a tremendous value indeed. $65k for a Dodge not named Viper???
