Although, I would hardly call it a beat down by the CTS-V. A 2011 SVT Perf Pack GT500 would I'm sure happily return the favor.

I think the biggest cause for concern is that GM has a Caddy in the muscle car segment!

I can easily say how does a Mercedes AMG that ways almost 1000 lbs more than a Vette with only 100 more HP hand it it's butt a couple of years ago? I wouldn't say an AMG Sedan is a sports car let alone a supercar!

the AMGs is why GM is making the CTS-V with the LSA. Those AMGs can be some bad mother f**kers

I know I was in my Vette and this AMG had no badges on it. I was on the thruway. And lets put it this way I didn't know hat hit me till we stopped at a gas station and he opened his hood. It didn't say MB thank god! It said AMG!

Just like the 4 door G8 GXP sedan with 415hp can run with the Camaro SS and I believe it way's somewhere near 4000lbs.

I ran into a SL65 in weschester when I just got back to NY. I was pushing 350wHP and I knew what it was.. but just had to see how fast it was.. I got him to play.. we punched it and he was walking right away.. look like I didnt pressed the gas..

Remember, the SS package when it first came out was just a trim package, with some handling (if you can call it that in the mid-late '60's) upgrades. You could get the baddest Chevy motor in a plain jane Biscayne (that's a Impala/Caprice like car), and an SS with a 327 2bl. If you think my Trailblazer is bad, what about the 4 dr, non turbo Cobalt.

Want to hear a good Mercedes story. I was pulling in the parking lot where a freind works and there was a CL65 in the parking lot. I thought, holy shit, wow....Got to talkin to my Freind and he introduced me to the boss. Outside his window was a Maclaren SLR and he said it was his. I said geez, who's the poor guy driving the CL65? He said that was his too. Holy shit, about $750,000 worth of cars.
