Performance wise it absolutely does not hang with the CTS-V.

C63 AMG:

Nurburgring lap time 8:13:00 (+13-14 seconds)
0-60 MPH: 4.1 sec (+ .2 seconds)
1/4 MI: 12.5 sec (+
Braking 60-0: 114ft (+7 feet)
Skid: 0.89G
Slalom: 68.6 MPH



CTS-V Sedan (Coupe curb weight is the within 30lbs curb weight):

Nurgburgring lap time 7:59:32 (-about 14 seconds faster)
0-60MPH (Coupe): 3.9 sec
1/4 Mi: 12.2 Sec
Braking 60-0: 107ft
Skid: 0.90G
Slalom: 70.3 MPH


Yeah, the ring numbers again! As has been rumored, GM has never been forthcoming with suspension changes for the test. Not saying the car isn't fast, but having no independent laps is kinda stange! Having driven both the sedan and coupe CTS-V's in stock form I don't buy those numbers.
Either way 14 seconds difference around an 8 minute ring is not blowing someone out!
