The engine is little changed from the version in the ATS-V. It’s a twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V-6 that spins up 472 hp and 445 lb-ft of torque. Torque doesn’t change, but this car has 8 more hp thanks to a 39% decrease in intake restriction, titanium connecting rods, twin low-inertia turbos, and revised computer software. It’s a gem of an engine that revs freely up to 6,500 rpm, thrums melodiously during heavy acceleration, pops and burbles on over-run, and blats between gears. More importantly, it launches the car from 0-60 mph in just 3.9 seconds with the 10-speed automatic or 4.1 seconds with the manual, and pushes it to a top speed of 189 mph.

this the car that was like $100k and sold out already?
That's the CT5-V Blackwing. 668 HP SC V8 and a stick shift available! Just the initial pre-order allotment of 250 sold out. As far as I know you can still order one, you just won't be 'first'. With all options the damn thing can reach $125k!

I tried to talk my wife into one. No go. She hates the way it looks.
