Couple things n this thread I'd like to address:
1. Due to advances in technology automatic cars can now shift faster and be more efficient than manuals and they take out the factor of human error.
2. Whomever said Cadillacs are designed to just go fast, Cadillac pioneered magnetorheological dampers as far back as 1998, which were then adopted by Ferrari. They allow the car to have a soft ride when wanted and a stiff rigid ride when needed. By the way the technology was also copied by Audi in the R8 and TT.
3. German cars have long been known for being unreliable and expensive to repair, some may say that its worth it but they don't offer anything in terms of styling, performance, or luxury that can't be attained from purchasing a car elsewhere. Some examples being the Cadillac ATS which is already shyttin on the M3 and they haven't even made the V version yet, the Hyundai Equus, Infiniti M56, or Lexus LS460
4. Also lets not pretend that General Motors hasn't repeatedly embarrassed these shytty overpriced German cars on the Nurburgring despite it being in Germany.

lmao @ how ugly that car is,

that is NOT luxury bro, it may be fast but its not luxury

I'm from europe so perhaps my taste in luxury is a bit better than yours.
caddilac is one of the few car brands i truly hate but one thing they can do well is design some nice looking cars. That looks nicer then a m3

I always say it's European and American cars >>> Asian cars. (even tho I've had all three) (German, Jap, and American.)
:what: american cars have nothing on asian cars. The only american car worth owning is a dodge, jeep, and probably a ford.

As I already said, Audi , Jag , and Benz (S/E class) are only brands whose interiors are eye catching to me. I been said and I've made my list of best interiors in this forum multiple times.
the e class interior looks like a fukking office, if you like that and your a fan of that style then :manny:

lexus deserves a mention though. Their new models have amazing interiors

had to do that today, please lord never again. shut is so boring and whats worse is it makes the car slower. to top it off driving auto is like riding a bike with training wheels.
Time to start listening to history lessons in the car. :ufdup: Driving = boring without stimulation.

I hear ya....but ATS shytting on an m3?

I'm gonna need you to break that down for me.

Edit: also we can't discount that fact that the ATS chasis that got it it's raved reviews is modeled after the e46 chasis. I'm not knocking them for taking a winning platform and making it better I'm just pointing out that the platform they used was German, since we're on the subject.

Sayin the ATS is shaped up perfectly for them to make it better than an M3, the engine choices, suspension, lightweight frame shyts gonna be nasty b. They would be fine with the twin turbo 6 in the cts vsport, if they use that vette v8 its a wrap on that m3 shyt.
With the chassis shyt I wouldnt say its modeled after the e46 but modeled to be better than it, they had their own team design it from the bottom up just always with the intention of besting the e46.
