That Cadillac is one amazing car, and it should be beating its straight competitor. They set out to beat the M5 and it does that, so M3 shouldnt be a surprise. Its good though to see your car with the mods where it is, b/c so many people give the new m3 a bad rep that its slow around here. Props for the video, I think I gotta go look into buying a V now lol.

Thanks! The car has done surprisingly well, I managed a 118MPH trap on the Vbox as well, gonna try again with some DR's and see what ET I can manage.

Very nice, Drew! Your car never ceases to amaze me.
Scott - I had a feeling you were getting out of the Z06. I assume you finished the project? What was the reason for selling? Just wanted back in a FI Pcar?

Nice runs. That Caddy really moves out. Those cars are pretty easy to modify, a friend of mine has one making over 100 rwhp over stock with bolt-ons and a tune.
Thanks, yeah with bolt on's they will do very well.

Thanks Alex!

Just curious --- a ballpark idea of what the mods cost to get that extra performance? Feel free to PM if you'd rather not make it public knowledge.
Thanks for the reply DLS. That is cheaper than I thought it would be. I am just amazed at the performance against those cars. Congrats on a beautiful piece.

Hey Drew, was the CTS-V you ran a 6M or Auto? They had a 3 way shootout in the new Car and Driver magazine. Apparently the manual is substantially slower in the 1/4 mile than the auto they tested (ringer?). In this test, the manual CTS-V only trapped at 117mph, and was not as quick as the new E63 AMG, through the 1/4 mile, or 0-60mph. In fact, the Jaguar was also just as quick 0-60 and 1/4 mile. What is it with all these fast 500+hp sedans out now...LOL.

That's exactly it, guys. The Z is a great car, but I simply missed being in a Porsche. I guess I'm just another P-car fanboi...
