Making way for Schmitz in a van
A few days ago we brought you the news that a Cadillac CTS-V has lapped the Nurburgring in 7minutes 59.32 seconds.
The company says this is the fastest ever documented for a production saloon, and has now released footage to back up that claim.
Power is said to be around 550hp and according to GM they always set out to make the world’s fastest saloon.
From the video it looks like the car completed the lap with very little fuss...
