For this purpose it is already almost over idle: relaxing 1,500 times must turn the crankshaft to provide the maximum torque to the transmission.

560 is pretty impressive. Can't wait to see one with an aftermarket ecu reflash. She should be able to put out anywhere from 600hp to 640ish 
Thanks for posting gene

better be able to do more than that with a tune D, the 550 gains 95hp and 100 lb/ft. This beast better be cranking out 700+ with a tune

Yes Rudy, but these look a LOT like the CTS-V side grilles rather than the E60 M5 side grilles. Even the E9x M3 has way better looking ones because they don't have the ridiculous trim ring.

Gotcha. Too lazy to look at a CTS-V right now but I'll take your word for it. Maybe they just wanted to give the Cadillac buyers something to feel good about?
