You have to let it have it when you go on a test drive, otherwise it is hard to compare. I just bought a 2010 CTS-V and I drove my Camaro back to back today and my LPE600 Camaro definitely has a little more snort and pulls more looks than the CTS-V but the V is such a great ride!! I can't wait to get the V to the road track next weekend and test her out
