having sold an '06 cts-v, let me say this. the drivetrain in gen 1 cts v's wasn't reliable, the service is ok (mine never had many issues, but everytime i went there was someone new). biggest reason i didn't buy another one the resale. i sold my '06 with 23K miles for $26k after paying $47k (msrp was $52K). and go look at STS-V's their resale is worse. i had a tough time giving gm $60k+ for a car that might be worth $30k in 2 years. now i haven't driven the new one yet (my salesman has offered me a test drive), but between the caddy and m5, it is the same arguement between the 911TT and the GTR. there is more to a car then just performance. it is the overall package. interior, features, which car is easiest to live with day to day for me. things like the '09 will be the first cts with bluetooth for your phone, and what are the chances they will get that right with their first try (slim in my opinion).
