CTS-V will be the best decision you've made. I have already seen a fully built 760HP ZL1. But the CTS have more potential IMO.
2013 shelby......if I had kids is go with the v 4 door or v wagon(I really like the wagon)
The manual's in the CTS-V's aren't as fast. They also don't hold up to the HP the auto's do believe it or not..
Apparently you have not seen me drive....I'll race against an automatic....and win!:burnout:
I think what Kyle is saying is that the automatics have more HP off the showroom floor because the manual trans won't take the same amount of power that the automatics will.
Both cars have the exact same horsepower (auto vs stick) but the stick shift puts more power to the ground, stock for stock, .....same as our trucks. The advantage for the automatic is they are easier to launch off the line and they are faster shifting(for some people) and don't miss a gear. So for the AVERAGE driver the auto is quicker.....but back in the day a stick would always win....but not so much today.....but I can live with that...and I still prefer to drive a stick....I wouldn't care if the automatic CTS V was half a second quicker in the 1/4 mile...I would still drive the stick.:rock:

LZ1 is a high 11 car right off the lot...
I take the CTS-V any day over the ZL1 any day....you have the best of both worlds Performance + Luxury= Pussy magnet
