In most places in the world, being mistaken for a middle aged banker is a Good Thing (TM).

After checking out a multitude of classic cars and customs over the past few weeks, Jay Leno switches things up with a modern performance machine in the latest video from the garage – a 2016 Cadillac CTS-V. Leno is curious about Caddy's attempt to challenge the BMW M5 and Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S, and he takes a long, technical look at the sedan with chief engineer David Leone. Not content to just peek under the hood, Leno puts the CTS-V up on the rack to see what it packs underneath the svelte body.

Once he gets the lowdown on the Caddy's engineering, it's time for a drive. Leno also flexes his interviewing skills while behind the wheel and gets even more info about the CTS-V's capabilities from Leone. He seems fairly impressed, but Leno's most entertaining question about the 640-horsepower sedan is whether it can do a burnout. He provides a definitive answer to that at the end of the clip.

The Texan tuner drops an HPE750 supercharged kit into a 2016 Cadillac CTS-V, turning it into a supercar-slaying machine.

Surely, a factory 640hp CTS-V is not in need of more power, but if you happen to feel like it, Hennessey is your man.

With the HPE750 kit installed, the CTS-V is now making 757hp/6400rpm and 782lb ft/4200rpm. This allows the big sedan to accelerate from 0-60mph in 3.2 seconds and complete the quarter mile in 11.2 seconds. Top speed is 210 mph (340 km/h).

The kit includes a series of upgrades like a special engine management calibration, an upgraded pulley for the supercharger, a high-flow air induction system, long-tube stainless steel headers and midpipes, high-flow catalytic converters and a high-flow air-to-water intercooler.

If you think this is crazy enough, you’re wrong: this is just the entry-level upgrade option, as Hennessey also offers the HPE800 and HPE1000 upgrade kits.
