Cadillac can do it.

This is my most anticipated new GM release, since I'll be in the market for one in the next 4-5 years.

I wouldn't be surprised if the ATS program gets set back a bit just to make sure they get it right. I'd rather them take an extra year to make it competitive than just release a rebadged Astra, which seems to be the answer some people have for every Buick and Caddy product these days.

Absolutely!! I could care less if it is a year later as long as it does what its supposed to when it gets here!

The Audi S4 is going to be hard to beat, hopefully Cadillac gives them a run for their money.

S4 vs 335i is a ridiculous comparison. Let me know when the S4 beats the M3.

I believe the 3-series is being redesigned for the next model year. ATS should be aiming for that.

The S4 is optioned up over $60K in that video. I don't think the ATS should be playing in that price range. Even an ATS-V should be under $60K, IMO.

I think the A4 will be the ATS' target and the ATS-V will take on the S4. At least that would make sense to me...

I would think the RS4 goes against the M3? Either way, Cadillac needs to step up!

Agreed, ATS needs to have both of these in sight, I'm all for it handing it to these two as well.

as to the video, I sort of wonder why they didn't use the 335xi against the S4. AWD vs AWD seems a bit more fair to me.

Is it me, or does the A4/S4 look GIGANTIC in the flesh? Like nearly A6 sized. I remember seeing several lately and thinking how much larger than the outgoing model they looked.
