i dont care, v8s are great, he does have alot of OPINIONs on that show i like euros too but i love muscle, most races arent around a track, remember that! before you bring up handling!

what where gonna be racist now cuz my opinion is different ? i know japs have been building those engines for years , same here in europe , and what ur saying about the engine not lasting as long as a american car , eehm then why are old european cars still around if they break down so fast what ur saying ? and about the caddilac u dont have to believe me , but it is the truth , every brand has foreign ppl to help out.

well sorry to break it to ya , but evo s supras and gtr s , have way to much assists to be a complete mens car , they look great , but do u se where i m going , a real men would drive the car without the assists on , and those cars u all name up are driving data bases , if u want a real mens car i d say that has to be something like a porsch 911 turbo , loads of over and udndersteer , hard to handle , no assists , thats a mens car !

JD Power awards? American cars were declining in their numbers from 2006 - 2007. Initial quality has only began to rise since 2008, so that's one year. And, for the second year in a row, Porsche has been ranked highest in initial quality. American cars are trailing behind. You can even check JD Power and Associates for yourself.

We like to be men. I'm a fan of Evo's/Supra's/GTR's like anyone is, but I have to say having a big V8 under the hood is a bit fun and a different experience ;)

disregard my last comment, I was poorly informed. my apologies.

For the that couple years, American cars have won almost all of JD Powers awards for initial quality. Sure Detroit has produced some lemons in the past, but their new models are arguable the best built in the world.

One other thing Creation.. The laws of physics are the same in the US as in Europe. Anyone can make a 2L engine with 500HP. The Japanese have been doing it for years. Its just that 500HP Twin Turboed engines don't last nearly as long as a 6.7L V8 running at 40% capacity. Couple that with a country that has states wider than all of Europe and Gas that is 50% cheaper and you will begin to understand why we like Big engines that aren't fragile and in need of constant maintenance.

Creation.. Just so you're aware, the new CTS-V wasn't developed with Europeans. It was fine-tuned and tested in Germany at Nurberbring track. The only cars in its class that can compete cost over $100k here in the US. Being European, you don't understand this, but the M56, RS6 and AMG offerings are almost 40% more than the cost of the CTS-V here in the states due to import taxes. That being said, if I could own either a CTS-V or any of the others, I'd take the Caddy!
