Page 2 of 2Specifications & SummarySummaryFor as long as some of us can remember, rides wearing badges from BMW, Audi, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, and others have ruled the luxury performance sedan roost. That’s started to change in recent years, with Japanese companies such as Infiniti and Lexus upping their games, and now with the release of the 2009 Cadillac CTS-V, the domestics have officially entered the fray. Unlike the previous iteration, which was fun yet not wholly competitive, the all-new ’09 CTS-V hits the scene showcasing its overwhelming power, impressive handling dynamics, and unapologetic badass attitude. It seems that the performance sedan party has officially been crashed.
