CTS-V > Bonnie... The bonne is nowhere near as nice a car as the CTS in any aspect. The only thing it has going for it over the V is size really...

I hate to admit it cause I love my bonne but hes right...except I think the bonne wins in fuel econ...but thats not fair since the V has a V8..

If you don't want to be realistic that'* your own deal.

Realism has nothing to do with it. So frequently, you remind everyone that someother car does everything so much better than the Bonneville, and it'* usually cars that aren't in the same class at all. We already know.

Yep. You're crazy.
I haven't looked back yet. However, the only issue with the CTS-V that is MAJOR is that they like to eat up the rear differential and spit it out for lunch. It'* gotten to the point that the DOT is doing an investigation on it. I hear that the 06+ rear differential is stronger though. It'* a good thing you didn't test drive it, you WOULD have bought it. There'* no comparison in driving pleasure/comfort in comparison. Two TOTALLY different kind of vehicles though. The CTS is a lot sportier.
