I surmised as much in my original post where I posted the picture. However, I think for this particular market poeple "want" to hear the sound of the engine. This isn't the regular CTS we are talking about. The average buyer of this car is someone wanting more power, more performance, and a more connected feel to the car. Not the cloud-9 taxi ride. I'd be interested in reading a article that talks briefly on how the cars compare sound wise. Personally, I think S/C can sound good. If I was in the market to buy the CTS-V I probably would want to hear it.
