Has anyone gotten a CTS-V Coupe?

[jimmyh]

I hated the coupe when I first saw it. You are right, the pictures make the proportions appear all wrong. But it looks much, much better in person, up close. The proportions all come together. The ass is big, for certain. But it works. I think. There is some Accord in the profile, but then, the Accord coupe is not a bad looking car either.

The only thing is the driving position. I never sat in the Recaros, but I had a CTS4, and the seats were uncomfortable, and I couldn't find a good driving position. I would have to try the Recaros.

I am waiting for the ATS-V. If they do it right, that might be my next car.

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

agreed- looks a little like an accord and that rear end . there was a local write up on one in the local paper- average review... some good some bad. the reviewer said "it's no eye candy" in the looks dept.

Subjective.

Sure goes around the track well- will out handle just about any car out there- goes like a bat of hell and chicks dig em

Update: chicks and kids dig em at cars and coffee.

I just picked up a 10' CTS-V Sedan and it is ALOT of fun to drive. Totally different than my LPE 600 Camaro. The Camaro is a brute force, where-as the V is so smooth everywhere. It definitely needs about 100 more hp but I have to try it out at the road course first to see how she handles. The heated & cooled Recaro's are fantastic!! I am getting rid of the Camaro unfortunately, as the V is just a more functional beast for me, especially as a daily driver. I will miss my Camaro though:(

I'd take a V in a heartbeat. Could never afford one though. Perfect beast for a family guy.
