Yeah, but that is because A) they are not into big cars like the CTS-V or B) Are image snobs like you who see Cadillac's as old people cars and are not true car enthusiasts.

I will reword it. They are car enthusiasts for BMW.

A car enthusiast is a person who can appreciate any car no matter the make. You may prefer the 135i over the CTS-V. That is your right. But, by saying that Cadillac's are for old people, you degrade the CTS-V due to the image of Cadillac. I prefer a Z06/ZR1 over the GT-R, but I still respect the GT-R for what it is.

lol bro i think u mis understood me im not saying the CTS is for old people or a bad car, i respect it, im just sayin in general (at least where i live) "cadillac" is notorious for having "older" drivers, thats all im saying, not saying its a fact, or not even saying its a bad thing.... its just an observation- i have nothing against it.

We can label these two votes as opinion. I think the CTS is very modern looking, unlike its predecessor. And I find it (arguably) significantly better looking than the 135i, with beefy proportions and an aggressively sculpted face. Also, Caddies, Benzes and Lexuses (Lexii...?) might be for old men, but that doesn't stop the C63, ISF or CTS-V from being godless road killing machines. Learn to avoid stereotypical generalizations.

I would like to point to the last part of my previous statement. If you don't shake this notion then it will always stick with the brand. Being an enthusiast, you should know better than "90 percent of the people" who you would ask.

It's a direct competitor with the M5, priced in line with the M3/C63/ISF.

Vinny (since your bringing up our first names into these posts) let me just say that your best point thus far in this debate has been my mispelling of a word.

You can say the Cts-V is ugly (and this is your oppinion and right) but there are two things you cant deny, that

A) The CTS-V would kick the shit out of your little 135i
and
B)That your generilization of the Cts-V is nothing but a stereotype, that in my oppinion is no longer well founded with cadillacs new body style ( and since when did the 135i win beauty contests?)
Anyway man, you can point out i mispelled a word, but half the words you use in your posts arent even in the english dictionary.

This guy has valid points.

[ptack]

What kind of bird-brain comparison is this? A $60k sedan against a $35k coupe? Why not compare apples to apples and put the Cadi against an M3 sedan? That's a more interesting comparison.
I'd go with the M based on resale alone.

That's still not fair. Compare the CTS-V to its closest competitor in size which is the M5......

This is rich, a guy who drives a 335xi who thinks he is more of car enthusiast than a 135i driver. That is just plain funny. I'm still laughing.

And go the CTS-V, it's awesome.

So we're going into a inter-BMW civil war now are we?

All I was saying is that anyone that discredits the CTS-V because it is a Cadillac is not a true car enthusiast.

PS: The 335xi is my dads. I am lucky enough to get the privilege to drive it occasionally. I have the Aura.

[Burt Reynolds]

Dude- the way you are campaigning comes across as desparate. Just go buy the CTS-V and make yourself feel better...then you won't need other people to make you feel better about your car. Seriously. CTS-V FTW.

[FStop7]

I would rather be kicked in the nuts than take a 135i over a CTS-V.

[shodanusmc]

We ordered a 135 Vert for my wife. We also have a E55 211 which I would consider replacing with the CTS-V if I was to go buy one now. The new V is a great car, and has one hell of an engine. Everything about it is just right. Wheel hop is gome, great interior, rides great, and is quicker than a E63 and the M5.

But, I am also old, and I agree, you see a lof of "older" people in the Caddy, but most of them are in the DeVille's, and not the CTS and CTS-V. For 65,000, you can get a fnicely equiped V model.

We are looking forward to the 135, and my wife picked it out, and yes, I did suggest how would she like a CTS-V and she said nope! End of discussion.

Power wise, the V wins. But as some has pointed out, this is the 1addicts......

[Rawhide]

I'm a fan of the 1er, but this isn't even close. I mean, come'on...

Of course, the CTS-V also costs around 30k more, but who's counting?

[Heinzftw]

As I stated before. Even though were comparing apples to oranges. The V is superior for the price. Although the 135i is AMAZING for the price, if I could afford the V I would take that over the 1'r any day.

Sorry, I misunderstood. I agree with you.
