Hey guys,
My current daily is an '05 Pontiac Grand Prix GXP. Great car but it is getting a little long in the tooth so I'm considering an upgrade. Nothing new and of course something dependable but still unique and interesting enough that I wouldn't feel out of place pulling into a local cruise and popping the hood. There are two cars near by that have caught my eye and I was just wondering if anyone has had any experience or opinions concerning either one.
First is a 2012 Cadillac CTS-V coupe. You know the basics. Supercharged 6.2, auto, all the bells and whistles. Overall in good shape but a few minor things, mostly cosmetic stuff, and higher miles, around 120k.
Second is a 2013 Dodge Challenger SRT-8. Unique thing about this is it is a Hennessey HPE 600 car. Supercharged 6.4, 6-spd manual, and loaded for a Challenger. Looks to be in excellent shape with only 42k miles.
Prices are comparable with the Caddy being a little cheaper but in the same ballpark. Both should be a blast on the street. Planning on looking at both this weekend so I thought I would poll the audience before I pull the trigger. So, pros, cons, stories, one over the other or neither, anything guys?
Thanks
