I bought a CTSV

Picked it up on Saturday. The E's lease is up in February and I really cant see myself buying it out for 10 grand more than its worth. It still retains the rank of "best car I have ever owned" but 10k is alot of dough.

Still have a few hundred miles before I can really lay into the V but here is some pics for your enjoyment.

Good choice those cars actually have an aftermarket unlike our Benz. Pulley exhaust and tune that monster

Thumbs up

I had a CTS-V for a few months after my lease on SL65 was up.
Needless to say,I did not suffer at all,that car is a great package ,well put together and I had a lot of fun with it.
You will enjoy it.

Don't blame you one bit, I too would rather have the CTS-V (+ $30K cash still in my pocket) over the W212 AMG.

Nice ride(s) that 360CS is sweet and you even have the $5500 Italian Stripe option there were only so many of those made.

I love that CTS-V, I'd say you have all the bases covered w/your selection there.

Gorgeous stable you have there. The CTS-V is a beast. Let us know how she treats you. Especially after some mods.

Out of everything on the entire car to criticize, I guess it's a good thing that all I could find is air vents.

as today.. I can only see myself buying 2 cars in the next 18 months..

CTS-V (09) slightly used..


or a pedestrian 550i sport (4.4 TT)..

maybe a 535I (n55 twin scroll turbo) but depends on the tuning capabilities.

I don't know but the passenger side floor mat looks likes it's made of paper

Sorry I couldn't resist but was surprised no one else mentioned it. Awesome set of rides though indeed
