Yeppers, this is how I've been feeling for nearly a decade now too. Speed isn't necessarily even breaking into my top 3 virtues for cars I drive and consider buying. I'd take sound and steering feedback, or especially ride quality, over speed any time, particularly in Canada, where unlike in California - the other place I mainly drive, at least until Covid - you can barely stretch a decently fast newer car's legs without being into the "seize your car for being naughty" speeds of 40 or 50k over the 100/110 limits on most of our highways. In Cali, doing 80 or 85 even on the Freeways is pretty commonplace, here, you get crucified for that. Even IF we could get away with Cali/etc type speeds up here, a car's speed still isn't nearly as important to me anymore. Acceleration isn't a bad thing, but again, you can't really use it much beyond a couple of gears in most cars these days.
Next spring I might check out the CT5-V - my uncle has an older CTSV, and I really liked it the few times I've been in it.
