Finally moving on from BMW..... For Now

Hello my fellow BMW Fiends, I am making this thread because after 4 years and 2 335i's I finally got rid of my montego coupe and am purchasing a 2011 Cts-V I am still faithful to BMW although there is no other vehicle that compares to the Cts-v in performance+Luxury. I was hoping on some input on whether to get a Coupe or Sedan? Regardless of the fact I plan on trading in the Cadillac for a New M5 within a period of 2 years or so. Any comments on the CTS-V will be greatly appreciated

If you are able to get a CTS-V and then in two years an M5 F10 why not. But I'd rather get the M5 Sedan F10 at once, you'd be the first to have it, and then maybe trade in for the M6 GranCoupé F14 within 4 years.

I don't know about that statement. Maybe at that price point the CTS-V is certainly a contender. The luxury part is borderline, but I suppose if they used better interior materials and made it a higher quality car then the price would have had to been much higher. GM is trying to sell at a price point that deters potential buyers from the Euro cars and they've been fairly successful at that.

Enjoy your new ride.

Thanks everybody! what I meant was for the price you will not find a better performance/luxury vehicle. On another note, I ordered my 10" pulley, wait4me tune, and Hennessey intake just now 650hp here I come!

I think Cadillac interiors are way better than anything BMW offers if that's what you're into, and the CTS-V is no different.

That car is ridiculous, especially modded.

Positive that engine is going to be a monster when modified but can it put down that much power on two wheels without looking like a dragster with 2 tiny front wheels and two elephant rears while maintaining cornering capabilities
