BMW M4 Vs Cadillac CTS-V - Who Brought The Knife To A Gun Fight?

One is on its way out while the other is just arriving, but both are all about performance. One is on its way out the door while the other has just arrived. They may be two high-performance coupes based on larger sedans, but they have loyal followings of their own. The Cadillac CTS-V Coupe is currently in its final days. More than likely, it’ll eventually be replaced by an ATS-V Coupe. But the latter won’t have the CTS-V’s supercharged 6.2-liter V8. In the other corner of the ring is the all-new BMW M4.

The Caddy's angular, origami-like exterior styling has very limited appeal. And that front end makes me wonder if GM stole some K-Car designers for inspiration. Sure, the Caddy is about performance, but can't GM make a pretty car? Or at least one that isn't seriously ugly?

The CTS coupe is one of the best looking cars on the road. And the V-Series just takes it up a level with its metal mesh grille. This car still looks fresh today, whereas the BMW 4 Series coupes already look dated.

That being said, the CTS-V seems to appeal to an older buyer whereas the M4 appeals to a younger buyer.

Caddy has worn the angular look for over 10 years and old is OLD, TIRESOME and OBSOLETE.
You want old and long in the tooth design, then your choice is Caddy.

I have a CTS V Coupe. It is a kick in the pants. I am sorry to see that it didn't sell enough to be continued. Not sure what to get when my lease ends at the end of the year…thinking an SL550?

I don't think it's being discontinued. It's just the end for the current model, readying for the coupe replacement since the new CTS sedan was just recently introduced.
