Lol! snobbery. If you look at my sig I have an SS and a 911 Turbo. I really enjoy both but the Porsche despite the price tag (145k) for me is 4 times the car overall.

exactly ! I've been lucky enough to own some nice vehicles some despite hi msrp have been awful. I still have much love for my Camaro although the new 392 Challenger is intriguing.

Unfortunately, posts like that make it seem so...

I picked up my 05 V for about $35k, and that was a hard pill to swallow. These cars have gotten way too expensive for my blood. Maybe if I can find a V2 coupe in a few years in the low $40k range. I also patiently await the ATS-V. This is the car that intrigues me the most. If they make it happen around 3500 lbs with an LS3 (or LS4? who knows) with three proper pedals, I will be salivating.

I love the V Coupe! I think they're kick-ass! If I could afford one I would have one

CTS-V is a steal compared to other cars in its class.

You can get a used low mileage sedan under $50k. By this time next year, probably close to $40k. It won't be long before the coupes start getting cheaper.

I sat in one and yes the interior was nice, it is a Cadillac! However, I find them to be a little unappealing to the eye. The ass end is just all messed up to me - way too big and don't like the point that it makes (much like the new Acuras, cough cough) When I look at the side profile, I see more Honda Civic/Accord and less Cadillac. Just looks like a really expensive rice racer to me. I will stick with my Camaro

I know people will tear me apart for my comments, but it's JMHO so ha
