630 WHP Cadillac CTS-V Wagon - One Take
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 чер 2015
- The CTS-V Wagon, specifically the manual transmission version, is a sure-fire collectors item down the line, but is equally wonderful to drive. And with just a few bolt-on parts, you can make really big power safely. This example makes 630 HP at the wheels!

Weird al shirt? Pearl white CTS-V wagon with a 6 speed? That man needs to be my friend.
+Andrew J (Jawse36) Word, us Weird Al/Wagon enthusiasts need to stick together.
Count me! Ridin' Nerdy!
We need more super wagons stateside! Especially the rs6 avant
sik59rt - my dream car! Wish they sold them in the US :(
Ryan Wilt Get one from Germany. They are super cheap there. My personal favorite is MB E55 AMG wagon.(475 HP and very reliable engine. You can get a good one with 15k€ from Germany)
MrRaitzi You won't be able to import them into the US.
Yep, you can't bring them stateside for street usage. I'm guessing you live in europe to have seen one? I also didn't think they updated the C7 since it was released
Andrew Mueller Not much of land of freedom then :( We can import american cars to Finland but lights need to converted and usually also some other minor stuff.
The best Cadillac ever. CTS-V Wagon, Manual.
The guy who owns the car seems really chill and like an awesome guy
Ken Thanks!
@@Xaqtly A weird Al and wagon fan is cool with me.
A stick shift V Wagon!? I need a moment, please :D
Jared Moore That's what I said when I first learned that it existed. That's when I started looking for one. :)
Xaqtly lol I know about it and that's why I'm so thrilled it was on the channel. Man I love them.
*Heavy Breathing*
wow thanks for uploading I was running out of things to do at 4AM
Is it just me, but this videos footage for some reason was so crisp and clear, with no hiccups, or anything. Idk this video just seems so much better to me.
Karim nassef about a month or so back youtube aloud videos to be uploaded in 60 fps, and this seems to be when farrah started using that feature. previously youtube vids ran at 30 fps.
If you're watching on the app, you can watch 60fps on the app now
BK bransen THe problem is that 60fps does NOT run correctly on many systems. UA-cam does NOT offer a 30fps option for people with systems that need it either.
they do you just dont get HD, have to use 480p if your system cant quite muscle out the 60 fps
Yea, idk I was just watching on my phone, and it was just so good. Maybe my UA-cam all auto-played 60 fps, because previous quality was good, but not this good.
I don't know why, but I love wagons. The idea of something so goofy being so madly fast is amazing to me. They get a lot of hate, but I think when done right, any wagon can be beautiful. So there you have a (usually heavy), fast, beautiful, practical car, which is awesome.
***** Yep you nailed it. It's almost cartoon-like in its ridiculousness. In my experience driving it over the last three years, almost nobody knows what it is. You should have seen the face of the guy driving that Lamborghini Gallardo last week when I caught and passed him. It's like you expect that to happen with a supercar or a Viper or a Z06 or something - you never expect the station wagon. That's why in addition to calling it the Unobtainicorn, I also call it the Spanish Inquisition. And sometimes it's Moby DIck's White Whale.
Xaqtly You're the owner? Amazing car man, if so.
***** Yep. Thanks! It's been one of my favorite cars ever.
That is a great car! 630 wheel horse is ~740 at the crank. What a fun & practical ride.
60fps looks so smooth. Awesome car. Too bad Americans hate the manual gearbox. Short of bumper to bumper, I prefer a manual gearbox. Damn the .025689224 ms shift speed.
duweydang "Too bad Americans hate the manual gearbox". American cars have been the only ones to still embrace manual gearboxes unlike Audi, Porsche and Mercedes. So get rekt, Doofy.
Lunar Cactus I was screaming the exact same thing in my head as I was reading that comment. However, the PDK gearbox is a thing of beauty and if I had no choice, that would be a suitable replacement.
Lunar Cactus I'm not speaking of sports cars having a manual option. If you read my statement, Americans do hate manual gearboxes. That's why most cars on the road are automatics. It isn't specific to a group of cars but overall.
J King no need to scream and get personal from a true statement. Of all of your family members and friends and their family members, you're telling me I'm wrong when they drive automatics?
duweydang Bumper to bumper traffic is exactly why most American hate them. I'd drive one every day... if it weren't for road congestion.
Favorite car on these one takes, I love the V wagon.
GT7786 Thanks!
These are future classics for sure. 30-40 years from now these will bring big money at auctions.
One of the best things about it is.... it's a 630 WHP WAGON! So Awesome.
And that's why People hate Prius drivers.
JD JoyrideTV prius sucks. id get an e-golf. If I had dumb money id get the new tesla.
JD JoyrideTV Actually it's not just the Prius, I'd say it's ALL TOYOTA drivers. EVERY SINGLE TIME there's a lineup of cars following a slow driver, it's a Toyota in front (except pickups and sports cars), blocking everyone. At least here in North America. Maybe it's Peugeots in Europe, something else in Asia...
I just overtake them like the bitches they are. Why wouldn't Matt do this is beyond me.... unless there are police lurking around every corner... you can just cut out the moment to overtake
in london every second mini-caber drives prius... they ususally go 10-20 miles below the speed limit blocking whole traffic. I overtake them whenever I can. A lot of times I feel like just raming into one of them and pushing the c*nt forward.
And yes, there is something wrong with toyota drivers.... but there is something wrong with drivers in the UK in general. They usually can't drive to save their lives but are eager to "teach" you by blocking the right line of the motorway and just hanging there at 50 mph. You gotta break the law to pass him on the left and he will honk you and show you a finger. I always said they should make a special network of underground roads for them and make them drive golf carts.
prius rulz
Great job Matt! Your reviews are getting better and better. I love how you build up a great chat with every enthusiast you meet and get to know their car before you actually hit the throttle all the way! Shows your respect for what every single guy does with its car, some driving it across the country for you to drive and review it. No matter if it's a Prius or a Corvette, simply great petrol head TV! GREAT SHOW!!!
Fabianrs I agree. He's made it a really fun experience for us the owners, and hopefully he's having fun too.
Those wagons are sick.
I have a 2011 CTS-V sedan with 130,000 miles on it. I drive it every day. I almost bought a 2016 CTS-V but could not justify the price, $68,000, for the performance gains. My LSA is not much slower than the LT4, and I own it outright. Love my Cadillac. Thanks for the video!
Does this car come in automatic? Also what about all wheel drive?
This was a great video, that wagon screams "Road Trip" like few 600+hp cars do. Much props to the owner and I felt like Matt wanted to push it harder but couldn't and I can respect that.
***** Thanks. And yeah it is an epic road trip car. It just eats up highway miles like nobody's business, and in touring mode the suspension is nice and compliant without being floaty. And because there's so much torque you never need to downshift to pass people or go up hills. The MPG is still pretty bad but that's the only real downside.
By far one if my favorite one takes!! That car is so beautiful!!!!
hands down, top 5 cars to own that you don't have to eat noodles for lunch and dinner for the rest of your life!
MikeHuntIsItchy That's true, these are becoming relatively affordable with not too many miles on them, and the performance to dollar ratio is off the scale.
That is why I love my cadillac and will stay cadillac for life.
Really cool owner!
Arian Sarvi thanks :)
I gotta say, this my favorite one take so far
This car is just beautiful. Nothing like a 600+ HP Wagon!
The CTS-V wagon is my favorite GM car, period.
Out of all the CTS's, even the new CT5-V Blackwing's, this here wagon with 6spd is the only one I'd want.
I was able to buy his from his wife when he passed away
Favorite mod on my CTS-V so far is the QTP cutouts
probably one of the coolest wagons ever made! love the white as well! Props for the manual.
***** Thanks. Yeah I bought it specifically because it was a manual, and a wagon. And the manual is Tremec's TR6060 so it's a good manual. It's pretty much the only manual car I've owned in the last 10 years that I didn't swap a short shifter into. It's not as precise as something like a Miata or a BRZ manual, but it's strong enough to handle so much power, and still very smooth, the throws are short enough and it just feels good to row it.
That CTS-V owner seems like a really cool guy. Great video as always, Matt
HorsepowerKings.com Thanks! Well I was having a lot of fun. :)
Sho you know how I am now?
These things are so badass. Would absolutely kill to own one. For sure a future classic.
Xaqtly you seem like such a nice guy, beautiful car man!
Great car with a genuinely excited owner. Perfect.
***** Matt's a good driver, and it's fun to ride shotgun in a car like the V wagon with a good driver driving it. I was genuinely having a good time.
Hey Matt; Thanks for the videos, I'm jealous of what you do.
Mind blowing how the wagon can look so good with very minor mods. I truly prefer the wagon.
The power is so Awesome in this car.. I have a Coupe AT and is such a great, fast, and QUITE car!!
Im European and I would much rather have a Cadillac than any of these overpriced status symbols we get here. I also cant wait for the new CTS V, and when the ATS V gets a V8.. well lets just say its game over for the competition.
Honestly what Cadillac should do is make a V version for every single current model, CT6-V, Escalade-V, Elmiraj-V, XTS-V.
DesertStateInEu if u want a cadillac cts-v.. we have one for sale.. 2011 and only 4k km!! :]
Patrik D
I meant maybe one day, but I think that day is far away lol
DesertStateInEu ATS isn't getting a V8 option.
SANIC
They might in 2017.
DesertStateInEu 2017?
Nigga, that's so far off we have no idea if it will happen
Another good point of view, thanks. Instant fuel economy is irrelevant though.
There is a lot of good information and I enjoy these reviews. What I really would like to see at the end of each episode is some type of a summary of the pros and cons, maybe a 1 to 10 scale with five or more categories? If I watch one of these, its usually because I am interested in buying/building something similar. So perhaps more insight into (and all I care about is) ....value vs other similar cars? Ease of drifting? Butt dyno? What makes this better or worse than other similar cars? Fun factor? etc.
Zac's shirt is awesome.
Weird Al is genius!
Looks amazing, wouldn't mind one of those to drive!
I'm loving the new camera
That is a beauty!
Love it!
I was amused when I saw this video pop up. I don't personally know the owner, but I used to see it everyday after work on the way home. You can't miss that plate.
Awesome video, awesome car, and panoramic sunroofs are awesome!
Question to Zach and anyone else with a car that has electronic door handles: do any of you just use the emergency handle all the time? That's what I'd do.
you can justify buying performance parts and enjoy driving b/c wagon space, corvette power, and will get respect from any enthusiast of motorsport
Is that Harry Nilsson's son? Sorry for being "that guy" pointing it out, but LEGEND!
Kyle B I didn't realize it, but I think it is. They look exactly alike.
Yes it's him
TheSmokingTire It is.
Xaqtly Haha that's awesome man. Recognized you from the documentary. Badass car!
Kyle B Oh, cool! Thanks. :)
Love the cts-v wagon
I would kill for one of those. One of the best modern body styles GM has made.
Love wagons! Sick car
Cool video of an even cooler car!
European here, I would love to have this over an m5, such a beast and it looks so good.
This car deserves to have a category of its own .. the one where tuning is more of really smart and targeted upgrading over the OEM !
In cases like the above its not only "lucky driver " but also "lucky car " too !
arno maas Thanks. Yeah I wasn't going for extreme power, I was really just going for some more power over stock while maintaining daily drivability. Since my mods are pretty much all just bolt-ons, that's pretty much what I got. It runs on CA 91 octane, too.
I sincerely hope it will stay as much reliable as possible . Have lots of fun with it !
(usually cars get damaged by owners who don't maintain them properly , not those who just use them as they were intended ,so hopefully yours will last long ! )
fast wagons are awesome, still miss my 2004 Volvo V70R
Matt, would you suggest a first gen CTS-V 6-speed as a budget daily driver/muscle car? I love the way they sound and the first gens are more of a sleeper than the newer ones.
price-wise, YES... ha. But the 2nd-gens are notably BETTER and FASTER.
I own one as a DD (first gen V with magna exhaust, cat-delete, skipshift delete, creative steel diff bushing). It's a fantastic daily, total sleeper. I like the fact that it's a totally under-stressed pushrod LS6, naturally aspirated.
They'll last forever if you don't hoon them everywhere.
For context I've owned: Porsche 996TT, BMW E46 M3, Porsche 968, and BMW E60 M5. I still own an 87 Carrera 3.2 G Body (and always will).
The CTS-V has nearly the same power as the 996TT and M5. Not quite as fast (especially vs the TT), and the handling is definitely more "American" vs the precision out of a Porsche or M car.
But on the upside - the soundtrack from the LS6 is honestly just awesome. The only car of mine I've ever owned that sounds better is the 3.2 Carrera. And the V is such a simple car from a maintenance perspective. At the end of the day, it's a Chevy with *almost M5* performance, without the maintenance nightmares.
Fantastic daily if you need 4 doors.
Uhhhhh this is like my dream car!!
Fun to watch this one, Love the car, owner was cool. Thumbs up.
is it me or is this video WAAY better quality than the previous ones
I stayed up all night waiting for a smoking tire review
Ahhhh, dream car!
Good lord what a beauty.
they need more cars like this in the states, wish Audi would bring the RS4 Avant here, beautiful V-wagon, especially manual!
Sweet ride!
What a nice guy!
My dream daily driver
Awesome Caddy, cool owner, good times. 💃
I've got suede on mine too, I replaced my wheel for like $200, worth doing when they wear. Got to love GM/AC Delco prices via Amazon.
I used to drive behind this car each day over to Henderson, NV. Kinda funny.
Love that car!
Fast wagons are just the best.
I feel like this is the first quite car on TheSmokingTire and it had 630 WHP CRAZY!
Perfect car!!!
Sadly, Zak is no longer with us. He passed away about 2 years ago after a battle with cancer. He was a fighter and kept his sense of humor right up until the end. He is missed.
Very sad to hear this, my condolences to the family
I actually bought the wagon from his wife when he passed
Stock they dyno at 460, 480 max. No way he got 150-180 wheel horsepower from headers, and a pulley. That dyno was super generous to say the least, and realistically is probably more around 540-560whp
I've seen the dyno results. It was on a Dynapack dyno. He runs E85 not 91 octane. That's how his car made 630 WHP. ua-cam.com/video/7nLeI1b42f4/v-deo.html
RIP Zak
My 5.7 rt Magnum is still going strong with zero issues in 10 years and 250k miles.
Nice ride Zach! I enjoy my -V wagon as well. :) Maybe Farah will take a ride in mine at the Virginia City Hillclimb this year.
Tremektus Thanks! WAGON BROS
Thank you for sharing new to channel but not anymore!
I'm a european car guy, specifically BMW(I own 2) yet I'd love one of these
@bottomlayer the CTS-V sedan and wagon have normal door handles, the CTS-V coupe has the door buttons like the Corvette. My gf has a Stingray, and had a C6 before that, and we never had a problem with the door buttons, so I don't really have a problem with them.
The video quality 😯
2017 Truly the best cars for overall performance and luxury. If u want a ZO6 and you do not have plans on having that car on the track than you need to get the Cadillac. Really comes down to if your a person who will go a race the track or not.
1.E63 AMG
2.CTS-V
3.M5
Nice vid! I'd also like to see a Dodge magnum srt8 on a canyon run
i fucking love these one take videos!
damn that t-shirt plug at the end was gansgter as fuck! straight ripped that shit out like a silverback! as always, great video Matt. living vicariously through these while I'm in Chicago dreaming of being back home in LA.
nice machine!
140,000km+ on my 6 speed and I run it hard. true dream car
This was a good one
I have seen these at the track. They are well respected for what they are. The 2016 CTS V is going to be even more impressive. A Z06 of Cadillacs. I have a 14 Shelby.
SCALECRAFT94 Yeah I agree - these are too heavy to be real sports cars, but they're set up extremely well from the factory given their weight.
Hahaha I lost it at. I beat it as of it owes me money. You are a genius :P
That alcantra steering wheel is easy to clean. Use some rubbing alcohol on a chamois towel and some elbow grease, it will come back good as new.
V10 M5 > everything
YesIAmThatCoolBitch If you're talking about maintenance schedules, yeah.
Yesss
Skylar Garrett most of the German cars of that era had problems
I hope you aren't serious? The E39 was better in pretty much every way. The V10 is a cool engine, the car it's in just weighs too much and doesn't fit the character of the car.
Skylar Garrett You can handle that if you buy this kind of a car.
The best car on this channel yet. I would kill for one. Where does that guy love? Just kidding.
slk25724 I'm in Las Vegas, come on out :)
You the man
The wagon I would buy for my grandfather since he's old school and hates imports
ahh big tujunga, my favorite canyon near me. never any cops, barely any traffic
hey chop and steele hope you guys win that lawsuit, I love your show keep up the great work.
I saw a CTS-V wagon exactly like this the other day
Awesome!
Matt: "please don't take away my door handles"
::Mach E 2021 has entered the chat
ONLY EIGHT MORE DAYS TIL ONE TAKES ARE BACK HAPPY HANNUKAH N MERRY VACATION MATT U INSPIRED ME TO BUY A SQUEGG
Riley Hughes what?
what a badass grocerie getter!!!
630@ the wheels!!! l love wagons. Specifically the Volvo wagons but damn does Cadillac make a mean grocery go getter.
