2004 CTS-V, 66k miles, stock.

Got it a few months ago... still haven't taken a decent photo of it so here is a crappy cell pic.

*edit*

Found a decent pic. (It's dirty because I drove it to NY from MI and hadn't washed it yet out there)

Those had the north star V8s in them right. I want the new model with the supercharged ZR-1 Motor in it.

Both rated @ 405hp

Never liked Cadillacs much, but always liked the effortless steering in the Cadillac "car" line,the SUT&V I could do without. Not to say I'd never own one, but they're pointless to me.


That said. I also like the color of yours. My manager had 1, an 06. Shared a striking resemblence. (Same color) :lol:

CTS-V gets a
:smt023 but not for HP, but for being a balanced car. a little on the hefty side, but makes up for it in some other areas.

Yep, she's a bit porky... but it's a very surprisingly nimble car for it's size. I can't wait to throw a track day at it.. the brakes are amazing, and it has power throughout the power band which is something that I've never had with any of my previous turbo cars.

Not to mention that creature comforts are abundant. It's not nearly as soft of a ride as you'd expect with a caddy, but I can cope because it's just so much fun to drive.
