Default CTS-V in the news - Hail storm Good Morning America

Watching Good Morning America this morning covering the big hail storms, and I noticed this poor CTS-V getting hammered, I'm fairly sure when I saw it that I counted the 6 lugs on my big tv.

Watch at 2:25

That storm was nuts. My Subaru was pummeled in a hail storm about 4 years ago. They replaced every panel on the car including the roof. No glass, no gas filler door, about 10K in damage total. The hail in that storm was only an inch in diameter but lasted for over 5 minutes. The average size of the hail stones in this Texas storm were almost unbelievable.
