    2013 ATS touts class-leading Performance Technology

    "When equipped with Brembo brakes, ATS’s estimated stopping distance from 60-0 mph of 129 feet is among the best in the class. On race tracks, that equates to less time spent in a slow corner; on public roads, shorter stopping distances can reduce the damage caused in a collision or prevent one altogether.

    “Performance, safety and style are the trademarks of all Brembo high-performance brake systems, whether on the road or on the track” stated Dan Sandberg, president and CEO of Brembo North America. “With the Cadillac ATS, we see a perfect example of how Brembo’s advanced..MORE"

    I can't speak much for the V until I see the real thing in person. As for the regular ATS, I saw it at the auto show and it looked better in person than in any of the pics I've seen. I just think the price point is too high on all the versions of it(It's priced too close to the CTS), and the 2.5 liter might as well not exist. It seems wasteful to make a version that has such a slight improvement in mpg over the turbo.

    It's funny you say that because the latest specs from Cadillac have the 2.5L and 2.0T rated at the same MPGs (although not yet confirmed by the EPA).

    Let's get one thing straight; the 2013 Cadillac ATS is not a super-car. It is not going to propel you from 0-60 in less than 3 seconds. It is not going to zip James Bond around while conveniently dodging rocket-propelled grenades and machine gun equipped helicopters in his next feature film. If your personal image of this car includes you hopping out of the driver's seat, doors opening Lambo-style as you enter the club with your model girlfriend, you may want to stop reading now.

    But all this just provides a stronger argument as to why this car is the most exciting new car of the 2013 model year...FULL PREVIEW

    I'd buy the V6 version and find a way to put turbos on it! lol

    Honestly, I'd probably buy the V6 and run it down the road as a reliable DD like I do my G8. 5.4 seconds to 60 isn't bad... Hell of a lot better than a Regal GS which IMO is bad ass looking but FWD and low power puts it out of the running for me.

    2009.5 MSM GXP 500ish N/A RWHP. Mods include but aren't limited to: Texas Speed 418 (6.8L) fully forged held together with ARP from top to bottom, PRC 255cc heads, Rick Crawford intake plenum, TB port, polish and tune, Roto-Fab 102mm CAI w/LS7 MAF, Kooks 1-7/8" headers wrapped with DEI, Corsa catless system, Circle D 3200 Stall, 3.45 final drive, BMR's complete street bushing kit and sway bars, Eibach Pro Kit, G-Force Axles, running on staggered VMR 710's with Bridgestone RE11 rubber. HSV triple gauge pack with Calais smokers kit mod, V6 tails, debadge/rebadge, V6 door handles, AU black door trim, Maverick Man under hood strut covers, & washer and bolt kit, fully corrected paint thanks to Adams Polishes and my hard work. Built with reliability in mind with some power for those times when you need to pass or go over a big hill. Just a poser, not a racer!
