The folks behind the 2009 Cadillac CTS-V’s 7:59.32 lap time around the Nurburgring just got back from Germany and, as promised, have posted a video of Executive of GM Performance John Heinricy’s sub-8 minute lap of the Nordschleife. The time supposedly makes the new CTS-V the fastest production sedan to lap the famous track.

Re-emphasizing the fact that no performance or operational modifications were made to the 550-hp CTS-V, Cadillac’s Drivers’ Log says that the car used at Nurburgring is the same that Cadillac will offer in production.

“We had a chance to mount some cameras on the car and had the benefit of a beautiful day. Enjoy”
