you would have to be a complete retard to not know the difference between a cts and a cts-v. the regular cts is for some reason, very ugly compared to the V
And if your a gearhead or car guy you should definately be ashamed of yourself not to know the difference. It's in every car magazine in 50% of every bathroom you go into.
Let's be real now. The guy said that because he has no idea, but knows that the cadillac with the V thing on it is really fast. And he wishes he had one but can't because he had 4 kids by age 22, got into tweak and coke, is out on parole, has another 2 kids on the way, Carls Jr. is too hard to work at so he took the pay cut and went to McDonalds. But in the end; he still finds a way to get his cigarettes and an accasional 18 pack.

Add to it, you're making a square peg fit into a round hole already by making sedan's....and CADILLAC a performance car. That being said, most don't really have a clue what a V is, the difference between a Gen 1 or 2, or that there is even a coupe availible. I would say the vast majority would be blown away at the power the gen2's have in comparison to the corvette base platform or even the Z06 for that matter.
De-badging a already rare and hard to identify car for the simple reason of "under the radar" is a little weird to me. Trust me, to 93.567% of the American Population, you already ARE under the radar, haha.
Now from an apperance perspective, if that floats your boat, then i say go for it! But don't think that you are suddenly a wolf in sheeps clothing because of it. I find myself spending mroe time trying to explain WHY the car is as badass as it is...and no....it's not the same car your grandma has, hahaha

I bought my car debadged. And there are still clues. But its not like this guy asked or anything. I can understand that a moron or someone who was just not in the know would NOT infact KNOW its a V. But it was how he walked by the owner twice and could have asked or anything else. And then walked over to his friends and loud enough for everyone to hear claims he KNOWS its a regular one. Its arrogance and mixed in this case with just enough ignorance, came off as SUPER funny.

I honestly didnt care that much. I would rather that guy go on being a moron then correct him and have him learn something from me which could help him later on in life. Why make the next time he sees one go any easier... Maybe that person is a homicidal *** rapist with AIDS. And I personlly love to find out this guy got *** raped by a large mamal with AIDS.

By the way, what are the differences between the S4 and the RS4?
