You remember the Hennessey-tuned Cadillac CTS-V? That rather lovely sounding coupe with a supercharged heart.
Actually, it didn't sound lovely at all. It sounded terrifying; like an aeroplane jet-engine eating two-tonne diggers coated in double-cream.
Anyway, Hennessey has pumped the CTS-V up even more and taken it to a drag strip. There, they tested how fast the suped' coup' would go. And it went pretty darn fast. In fact, 0-60mph was quoted as 3.2 seconds. If you're keen on stats, that'll outpunch a Nissan GT-R.
Click below to watch the video, where Mr Hennessey introduces his plans. Then there is some righteous tyre vandalism. And then lift off...

:D You are absolutely right the car is hideous. CTS-V will never be as good as M5 or E63 AMG, no matter how many bhp it is given.

Yes it is ugly but your M5, M6, C63, E55, CL63, Astin, Jag, none are quicker. Look folks, its not supposed to look like the BMW or the Merc, its an ugly car with a ton of HP and tq. Thats all. Why do you guys continually want to compare, cant you just enjoy it for what it is, a lot of fun? But I guess if it was just given to you you wouldn't drive it or enjoy it huh.

Hideous? Have you ever seen a CTS-V in person? Ever driven one? Doubt it. Go see a CTS-V saloon or coupe and then comment. Unique, and a nice change from the same old boring M5, M6, C63, E55, CL63, Astin, Jag, etc. Never be as good as M5 or E63 AMG? Go drive them and then answer your own question. You don't have a clue what your talking about.
