At $77,000 it had better be about handling, fit & finish, well engineered, well appointed and at least as fast as the competition. From where I'm sitting (reading) it has failed in 4 out of 5 categories. If you are in the $77,000 price range you can in fact have it all and most likely demand it. The Cadillac falls short where the E55 and M5 deliver. Unless the STS-V's competition was another name plate I've missed, I'm sorry but they failed. Failed miserably. As a 2004 and 2005 CTS-V owner I'm embarassed for GM.
