ok well i was coming from my truck yard and i saw red CTS behind me coming fast. Then he changes lane and the race was on. I just punched the gas pedal and shiffted into SS and then down shifted to 2nd and right before red line it shifted into 3rd. I stayed ahead of him till next light (he was little off from my rear bumper) and then i had to make left turn so then he passed me.

Thats all

 

thats all?????

i had one as a loaner, they are a pretty quick car. they handle awsome too. ive thought about getting one for my next car

 

The 3600 is GM's best V6 motor, IMHO. It's definitely a VQ35DE type motor as far as power delivery goes. It's a shame that more GM cars (read: Chevy & Pontiac) dont have this motor.

 

Off the line, who would win???

From a rolling start...who would win?

 

Was it a CTS-V?

 

if it was a cts-V you would have gotten your ass handed to you, you dont mess with 400hp

 

DEFINITELY!!!

 

hard to say

off the line i think the cts may get teh tl (rwd) rolling i thing the tl my have a slight advantage here.
im not sure manual vs manual. i havent driven the new cts with 6speed in it
the 3600 is no where near gms best engine.

the 3800 is a way better engine, its stronger can make more hp, comes with a available sc

im looking at getting a cts-v

 

Hehe, I got my ass thrown back at me by one the other night.

 

Where is JATTerbox? We need more info!

 

Thinking hard about one as well. I drove it twice already and it will RAPE my car badly (CTS-V). The stock CTS--even the new one, will not keep up at all.

ps--Dealer has quoted me $50.5k o/t/d with the suspension/sport/luxury packages and 2.9% for 72 months...hmm...

 

It is a sweet car. You can also get new exhaust and cross-drilled rotors as dealer installed accessories.

 

If I had money and wanted luxury with complete rapeage power, CTS-V would be in my garage. That car is sweet, fast, and has "pimp" status
