Default PGR3 - Cadillac V-Series dl pack

How much did Cadillac pay to have their crappy cars in this game?

Cadillac says they'll give u some special features if u get into the top 100 of the Nurburgring F1 circuit with one of the V cars, but I think that they should give u $1 million if u can get one of them in the top 300 let alone top 100. They are so bad and it's so unbelivably hard.

XLR-V
The only good thing about this car are the brakes. it could outbreak one of my fave cars in the game (gallardo) but when it sees a corner that's where it all goes wrong. There is absolutely no feeling when u take a corner in the car and the suspension is unbelivably soft. Also in the performance rating in it's class, it is dead last in class D.

CTS-V
A mid class E car, good handling, good brakes but under powered... yes under powered. Also the engine is very quiet (very quiet). no matter what view ur using, u just can't hear the engine. The handling may be good but the suspension is unbelivably hard and whenever u go over a bump, it destroys the balance of the car and u spin out (if in a corner)

STS-V
Another mid class E car but a lot more powerful than the CTS-V. However it has the exact same problems as the XLR-V. Soft suspension and no feel.

IMo, dl the pack but don't waste ur time on trying to get in the top 100 of the Nurburgring F1 track.

i love the look of the XLR-V but in the real world they are way to overpriced and i am sure that the handling etc. is the same in real life. but damn its a good looking car.

I did not enjoy my drive in a real-life base XLR. It is supposed to be a direct competitor to the SL500, and falls way short - it's almost as if it is a C6 Vert with a multivalve engine... wait that's exactly what it is...
