    LOVED THIS! In 2004 I had a 2003 Z06 corvette which at the time was a big deal because in 2002 it went to the 405 hp LS2 v8 which was up from the 2001 z06. While owning, the cts-v came out with the AMG and M competitor putting THE "big" z06 v8 in a CTS-V with the Tremec 6 sod. 5 second z06 powered 4 door sedan which at the time looked super cool with that mesh grill and wide fenders,. I sold my z06 and bought the Cts-V in black on black and powder coated the wheels black and man I loved it! Lingenfelter cold air intake, throttle body and Borla straight pipes had it sounding so good!!! (ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO WORSE CAR IN SNOW!!!!). My c5 z06 was truly decent in the snow but my gen 1 Cts-V was epicly horrible!!! To where I could back out of the driveway onto packed down snow and literally NOT be able to move forward a foot! No clutch feathering or TC could get that beast moving lol. Had it several years and sold to buy the "new" c6 corvette but sold that several years later to buy THE Unicorn, 2011 CTS-V Wagon with the 6-Speed, triple black!! I wanted the 2 door coupe BUT had no idea how much my Unicorn would be worth today. Ugh. Sold that to go back a step buying a 2006 Lingenfelter c6 z06 corvette which was truly my favorite of all the vehicles I've owned. Sold that when my 3rd daughter was born but now looking into the last gen cts-v with that 640hp setup. Sadly for not a lot more a c8 corvette can be purchased lol but have the feeling that won't be for long as soon as the c8 hits the streets , the 3rd gen Cts-V should drop considerably as they are already seeing a drop in sales where it's been out a few years. The CTS-V has been a part of my 20's and 30's and greatful Cadillac took a chance on it! Almost bought an XLR-V thinking it was really cool looking and a Cadillac corvette but looking back a good choice to go cts-V as the XLr-V's values tanked hugely the second drove off the lot and a supercharged northstar v8 was definitely not a supercharged Corvette motor lol.

My plans are cat back, engine and transmission mounts, eventually down the road swap the weak rear end (its howling currently) its kind of like a project car that i can use as a daily. Love it best sedan.

    Just make sure the blower has had the isolator warranty done to it or replaced to a solid isolator, they only cost about $60 but the supercharger has to be pulled off to replace it.

    The CTS has been replaced by the CT5. The V-Series is no longer the top performance for Cadillac. It is now called the Blackwing. The CTS-V has been replaced by the CT5-V. The upcoming CT5-V Blackwing is going to be the top performance sedan and it is going to have "More Power Baby!" than the outgoing CTS-V. We're talking 650-700 horsepower and a top speed over 200 m.p.h. It is going to be a monster. Stay tuned!!!

    Is a Cadillac CTS-V an old person's car? It certainly could be. I'm 77 and I own the coupe model. This is the most amazing car I have ever driven. It is an absolute monster. In fact, 556 HP was not enough for me. I felt it could be more efficient with some minor mods. So, I put a pulley kit in it with ceramic coated headers and X- pipes, HP cats, cold air intake, and dyno tuned engine and trans to boost it to 524 WHP which translates to about 645HP to the crank. This beast will rocket you to the horizon very quickly. I've owned 3 Camaros and a Vette through the years but this thing makes them look like snails. I love it. It gives me such a rush. I am definitely not too old to enjoy it.
