You honestly cannot tell me the V does not look overwhelming and complicated compared to the other three cars. I seriously got a headache just looking at it, like they are trying too hard to show how much technology the car has. Like a 7 year old girl who got into her mom's makeup and is trying to look like an adult.
It's "busy" but I kinda like it, I like how the passenger side of the dash looks, I find the IS a bit too simple in that area.
Everyone has their own taste, still, this is one heck of an interior coming from GM even if it is a bit busy. At least one domestic company is moving in the right direction.

I'm not arguing it's leap years ahead of where they were just a few yrears ago. It's just a little too busy but they are definately on the right track and at least they are making an honest attempt at a desirable interior.
BMW on the other hand looks like they have completely given up and decided to let Audi have the nice interior niche market.

any pricing info on the c63 yet? just curious to know how the price announcements from Lexus and BMW may affect/influence the pricing strategy on this car.
Um no... but since you drive an evo 8 I can't really blame you. I sure hope that wasn't the deciding factor for your purchase.
I have an evo 9 not an 8 and no it wasn't a factor at all. it was more of the glorious historied past of the evo as a rally car. right now undecided what to replace the IS300. an IS-F or just the LX570? no BMW or merc for me.

CTS-V weighs 4,200 lbs????? Holy fuck! That is a big no-no!!! It's definitely off my list of dream sports sedans. Weight is anti-performance. They can up the horsepower to 700 or more, but an increase in weight undoubtedly decreases performance. This is very disappointing. I'd rather they put a smaller (albeit still supercharged) engine, and made other efforts to reduce weight, so that it'd be more tossable. As it stands, this thing would easily melt its tires from a standstill, but I'm pretty sure it won't be nearly as nimble as the M3 or IS-F in the twisties.
For me, the IS-F is #1, then the C63, RS4 (hopefully the newer version would be hotter and quickly climb to #1), and then the M3. I would not pay this much money for a GM product (maybe I'd consider it for $30K, slightly used).
This is SOOO stupid. People how drive this arent going to track the damn thing.

Out of these four, I don't particularly like any of the interiors. The merc is cheap looking, I've alway hated that bulbous center thing that lexus does, and the caddy just looks like they were trying way too hard and it came out all wrong. The bimmer is simple looking, but refined imo.
