Similar horsepower, both 4 door sedans with V8. RS4 gives you quattro, while CTS-V lets you have those fun smoky burnouts...

CTS-V is 20-25k less expensive depending on the deal.

Any thoughts?

...$50K for that? bwahahaha!

S4 vs CTS-V is more appropriate john

I really enjoy the looks of the exterior and I was willing to forgive the interior b/c of that 400hp V8, then I actually sat in the car. Deal breaker right there.

for a car that doesnt perform that much better then the CTS-V...minimal upgrades in performace and handling at least according to all the car mags for $25k more...seems a bit steep. I love the RS4 but Audi has priced me right out of it..$75k counld be put to much better use... CPO E55 S/C, CPO RS6, etc, etc.. both noted are bigger cars with better or very close performance numbers...Im done venting!! :-) *flame suit on*

when I was at the local Hummer/Caddi dealer driving SUV's and to be honest I wasn't all that impressed with the car.

It's paying for exclusivity in a segment for which Cadillac is not a part.

BTW- with an 06 you can turn the ESP and have a little burn out/tail wagging fun and you won't miss the CTS-V when it rains. the RS4 will eat the CTS-V alive and costs much more. did you see the topgear where the CTS-V beat the S4 around the track by only half a car length?

Car in the shop because of the dumb *** detailer
Driving a Cadillac CTS and it feels like a failure

A failure in comfort drive and appeal
I can't stand the way the entire car feels

People say driving a german car I can never go back
People are right american cars suck and that is the fact.

I miss my S4-the way she drives
The CTS makes me feel like a grandma that died

Granted the CTS is not the one with the engine of a ZO6
I see why certain people like it-old people, gangsters and guys that suck ....

So in closing i say to you THAT you are lucky to have your S Four
I will never buy an american car, no, nevermore, no nevermore.

The end.

I know this is not a cts-v but it still applies!

Funny, but that's like comparing a FWD A4 to an S4, 318i to M3, etc
