An in-car camera would be nice

Wasn't there a thread yesterday about young kids thinking a Civic can whoop an Camaro, let alone a CTSV?

Ha, ha!

Do not see any Hondas/ "sporty Acuras", Mistubishis or Subarus either.

Obviously not. LOL.

I think you need a bigger picture of the CTS-V.

It would have been nice to see an IS-F there.

This could be interesting. I'm a bit confused as to why they'd pick someone who owns a CTS-V already, though.

Unless of course he has the old-style CTS-V and GM wants to show how much improvement has been made between the original V and the new/current one....

Go CTS-V, smoke 'em all!
What I want to see is CTS-V vs. Panamera duelling it out on the quarter-mile!

I feel sorry for the poor lad in that Audi RS4. Followed somewhat closely by the M3. That will be interesting to watch.

imcgary · 10-23-2009, 04:18 PM

any word on any video coverage?

chakis24 · 10-23-2009, 05:43 PM

the m3 will be interesting- since the car is smaller and closer to the cts-v price point.
and whose that kid with the cts-v?

no guys from MT or C&D or any of ther other bigger magazines?
