Caddy is a very nice car, would have probably bought it over the 335is if they had put in a better transmission. All the love for the big engine without a good tranny makes this a muscle head debate, so leave BMW out of it.

CTS-V
I did Bimmer, let's be honest, I have a Mercedes-Benz C230 Kompressor coupe from 2005, given the money I would send that car back To AMG in Germany, have it tuned and completely modified for even a 50k rather than buying a new c-class, why ? because we love our cars that s the truth, they brake down, they cost an arm and leg to maintain, but driving something else don't seem to connect with our senses anymore, But, and a BIG BUT to go and choose a 335 Coupe over a CTS-V coupe would rather be...some form of brain malfunction in my opinion, let's not get all worked up and sensitive about this, as the rules of the forum states, we are all enthusiasts, crazy maniacs of our cars, they are our best toys and companions, we have the right to love our cars, but to start saying non-sense is....non-sense, I review cars on a daily basis, I drove bimmers and Mercs when people never heard the names, I m not American and there are no benefits to me to side with anyone, I'm completely neutral, you talked about the Interior, seriously ? what is it about the 335 ? nothing, even BMW them-self know it and say it, the interior is as basic as you can find it and BMW promotes it because there cars are performance oriented so everything is really basic, we call it in the industry the 1.2.3 dashboard cause the only thing noticeable is the radio channel buttons, BMW great interiors start in the 5 series, and even at that it doesn't match the V, One interior is sick and that is of the new BMW 6 series, and this is following several surveys among BMW consumers and journalists asking them where they would rate BMW's comparing to Mercedes-Benz, Audi and Jaguar, and BMW always came up last in interiors, they are great, but lack a bit of a wow effect that Audi easily have or Mercedes-Benz, so to call the CTS-V interior worst than a 335!? I reviewed both cars, only the new 6 Series coupe is better in Interior, and given a choice between a 2012 BMW 6 series M and a CTS-V Coupe than Yeahhh Definitely, Absolutely, with no doubt I'd take the 6 series because my God it's beautiful in and out, but it will be double the cts-v price that s for sure, but a 335 interior, Not even over my 2005 MB C230 Kompressor interior.

I have to give kudos to Cadillac. All three varieties of the CTS-V are impressive machines. I would never buy one, simply due to their looks inside and out. The styling is way too over the top, IMO, and there is too much "bling" to suit my tastes. They all look like they need spinning rims to complete the package.
Definitely impressive performers though.... |
