Cadillac's new BMW M3 killer? The 2016 ATS-V

The latest figures actually give the ATS-V a hair more power than first believed, with 455 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque pumping out of the twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V6. With a standard electronic limited-slip differential keeping rear wheels in check, Cadillac claims that the model sprints to 60 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds and on to a top speed of 185 mph. Buyers have two transmission choices that both offer launch control: a six-speed manual featuring Active Rev Match and no-lift shifting, or an eight-speed automatic.

Let's put them on a track and find out.

Saw these on display at the Galleria in Houston. They looked real nice, although I wasn't impressed with the leather in the interior.

LF4 vs S55B30. Curious to see which engine comes out on top.

looks pretty good

too small for me

Put this in a Buick and call it the Grand National. Would buy!

It's just a powerful car. The M is an instrument of speed on a twisty track.
Posted on 11/20/14 at 11:34 am to upgrayedd
Would rather a Hellcat or 15 Charger/Challenger SRT.

Except that you don't buy an M3 because it has straight line speed. You buy it because no other sedan, domestic or foreign can claw its way around a track as gracefully or as fast as the M3.

The two door coupe, IWDI.

Not bad. I'd still take a Bimmer over a similarly spec'd and priced Cadillac.

I'm glad they toned down the rear end, looked too much like a wedge.

If you've watched the Pirelli racing series, you've seen the Cadillacs dominate. Over Ferraris, Lambhorghines, Audi R8, McLarens, etc.
I know thee are modded race cars, but Cadillac has certainly learned from this and is applying that to their street cars.
I was told once by a high end used car dealership to never buy an M3. One of the mechanics there races M3s and loves them on the track, but says the street versions have way too many issues.

M3s aren't that difficult to kill. My 4dr benz will dust one.

Manual transmission? Pass
Posted on 11/20/14 at 1:39 pm to upgrayedd
Looks like a glorified Scion TC.
But would still drive.

I like the sedan a lot. The coupe looks a little too long in the rear though. I need a new car....
