0.5 seconds faster around a track just isn't enough to make me want to give up the great feel BMW's have. Its purely a bragging rights result, and if I ever see a CTS owner bagging an M5 I'd promptly tell him to go drive one.

I love the feel of BMW's too. Absolutely do. I have only ridden in a few Cadillacs. Owned 5 BMW's....The reviews and technical data I have read on this car is that the feel is there and the roll you express is not. This is not a CTS with a 6.3L dropped under the hood. A set of M5 keys would suit me just fine. But there is enough money difference between the two that I will take a look. Nothing wrong with change in my book.
Bragging rights? The Nurburing/straight data and personal reviews will do for me. Purely for whom?
It's a car. A hunk of iron just like they all are. Everyone have a great day.
