The CTS-V has always been priced closer to the M3, but closer to the M5 in size.  
Which makes comparing it to either very difficult.

Yeah, plus you have to deal with the ignorant “its a cadillac it must be an old man car” and “domestics are inferior no matter what” crowds. In order to beat that being comparable isn’t enough, you have to destroy your competition, like the Z06 did.
