The M5 has come of age, but still very efficient. Looking forward to a more 'enthusiastic' review of these uber sedans.

You gotta admit, you can't beat the value of the Cadillac. It's amazing how much cheaper the CTS-V is over the M5.

Who is behind what? The movie or the fact that you can't see it at work, LOL.

It's Motor Trend, so it's not very exciting. Just a video clip of them dragging (separately mind you) and then on the track for like 3 seconds, and then they just tell you the numbers like power, price, etc.

As for who is behind your blockade...your damn IT department and management.

MotorWeek...not Motor Trend....very dull comparo...all of theirs are. Motor Trend would have been much more exciting. Saw the Road and Track one a while back. Love the CTS-V though. Gotta hand it to the M5 too, much more sophisticated machine than the Caddy. Great in White too.

Thanks guys! I wanted to know who made the comparison.

I know that the dimwit IT monkeys here are responsible for making my days a little more boring.

I think it is amazing that two so very different concepts can perform that equal.
