The 2011 CTS-V Sport Wagon is the kind of car that makes you forget you’re running errands and instead makes you feel like the world is as conquerable as picking up your dry cleaning.

Take your blood pressure medicine, folks – the CTS-V Coupe is here. And it does a lot more than simply zig or zag – it utterly dominates the high-powered sports coupe segment.

If you’re looking for a coupe and put high stock in style and potent performance, the CTS-V coupe is ideal. Nothing looks quite like it on the road and it garners plenty of praise from people in parking lots and at stoplights.

The question remains whether buyers of high-performance cars that cost substantially more will find the CTS-V’s stunning performance a compelling reason to change their loyalties. Those potential buyers should get behind the CTS-V’s wheel. We bet it’ll open eyes.

For a price that starts at $62,165, no other car can touch the 2011 Cadillac CTS-V Coupe for sheer performance. And the CTS-V represents an improvement in refinement and composure over the CTS Coupe, not just power and performance.

You may remember cars from the ’50s and ’60s like the Hemi-powered Chrysler 300 and the 421 Pontiac Bonneville. The CTS-V Coupe may be the contemporary spiritual successor to those classics – with the ruthless soul of a BMW M5.

The CTS-V is a lot of money for a Cadillac, but you’re getting a world-class performance car with looks that you will never, ever see coming from Germany, Japan, or South Korea

The CTS-V Coupe is F-U-N. Blend massive power with glee-inducing handling, wrap it in a polarizing exterior design, throw in a cabin that needs a bit more love and sell it all for peanuts, and that, friends, is a Nissan GT-R with a Cadillac badge.

If you are looking for the go with some style under 70K, the Cadillac CTS-V Coupe is a great buy. Cadillac didn’t manage to build a world class luxury car again, what they did build is one hell of a performance buy.

For those who aren’t bothered by paying twice as much to fuel their car, and can afford to feed it premium unleaded several times a week, the CTS-V coupe is a stylish, extremely capable car with more muscle than some race cars.

The Cadillac CTS-V isn’t exactly cheap. However, when you consider that it comes with a supercharged V-8 that will make many supercars jealous, you’ll quickly start to realize just how much performance per dollar you’re getting.

If you’re after the lightest, stiffest, best handling CTS-V, the coupe is the one to have. It’s the 21st Century version of the Hemi ‘Cuda.
