The -V is an unbeatable go-fast value if you're spending $40k+. Here's me running my former G8 against a friend's CTS-V at ~8000+ density altitude:
With a tune, intake, injectors + E85, lower pulley, and drag radials, he's already at 11.50 at our altitude and would easily be in the 10s at sea level. The track almost kicked him out last week for running 11.49x without a cage. I'll bet he's put under $4k into the car over sticker. They're wickedly fast.
Once the TT63s come down they will also be a good value but we're not there yet. Enjoy the car! A -V wagon will probably come for me after the E55.

Wait a minute...I am confused...URB: You bought the silver V with 664rwhp? I sent you a PM if you didn't buy that one.

The generation 2 CTS-V is just the tip of the iceberg. Wait until the next gen V and the upcoming ATS-V pictures and specs are made public. I predict the next V will have 600 + horses and the ATS-V will have 475. Like AMG, Caddy V is not playing when it comes to performance, so these performance mods will be necessary if you even want to compete with what will be roaming the street by next summer.

Yeah, I kind of agree. With that low a mileage I would think that car would sell for 37k minimum. I wonder if something wrong with it, but I definitely would have the car inspected by a Caddy Indy to make sure there are no hidden gremlins.
