Wow this thing is a beast: 1/4-mile in 11.07 seconds at 128 mph.
After pulling 0.99g at the start ... OnStar figured they must have been hit from behind.
Check out the video

This "Chevy" will compete with an e60 M5. Caddy has come a long way.
Other parts of the equation are (as quoted from someone i really respect):
Design, tradition, history, heritage, exclusivity, marketplace perception, brand and mystique.
