The latest C&D has a review of the new CTS-V, and makes a good point. Cars like the CTS-V are proof that America, even GM, has the ability to engineer and build cars that are as good or better than the Germans at their own game. In the case of the CTS-V, just as good but for much less money. Americans aren't the problem, it's a piss-poor corporate culture of mediocrity reinforced by limited R&D/engineering spending, compounded by indifferent quality control.

Recent products, especially from GM, have shown that they can build good cars. But is that enough, and is their reputation too far gone to recover?
