All hi-performance cars are fun these days. I remember the "good old days" in the late 60's when the horsepower wars between the big three was going on! No one worried about gas mileage back then. Then the mid 70's, when the horsepower on the heralded Corvette dropped to 185 (1977 I believe). That led to the 80's and 90's when a "hi-performance" car was just a sporty paint job. It's so good to see performance making a comeback. And, for the money, I think the Cadillac CTS V is probably the best bang for the buck. Designed to go head to head with Jaguar, BMW, and all the elite european cars, it is the world's fastest four door sedan, at a cost of only $69K. I'm sure that's still out of reach for many, but so was that 69 Z/28 when I was growing up! And, the highest quality rating this year all went to euro/asian cars, except one American brand. Cadillac!
