Which is why, much to many people's dismay, I'm interested in seeing which engine makes it into the next CTS-V before pulling the trigger on an M5 or M6 (that, and horror stories of the SMG). If they drop in the LS7, as most people seem to think, you have 505 HP and 470 tq. You feel that torque down low way before you feel HP at 8000 rpm.
