Don't get me wrong, your M3 deserves your love. But you have to admit that Cadillac has come a long way in a fairly short time.

This car looks good, will put up good mileage numbers, and will be really fast in everyday driving - especially with the automatic.

I bet the Caddy comes in at an aggressive price, as well.

What times do you figure the new automatic M3 will put up on the 'Ring while completely stock? 8:07? 8:09?

Gotta hand it to GM. I'm looking for more to come. This has to be good for all of us.

Comparison tests to (inevitably) follow - in which the M3 will do fine.

If the automatic is no better than the ZF found in my e92b335i it will be nice, but not in the category of the M-DCT. They put a automatic in it that allows as much control as the M-DCT and produces better times than the manual they will have my attention, a possibly my business.
