WOW, what a surprising car. A Cadillac with a Corvette heart. The Cadillac CTS-V was and still is the ultimate 4 door sports car. This car has the 405 horsepower LS6 Corvette motor from the factory. This is the exact same motor as the Z06 Corvettes. GM backed the motor up with a 6 speed manual transmission, full independent rear suspension and Brembo brakes on all 4 corners. GM even included a g force meter in the instrumentation (see photo). These cars sold new for almost $60,000 in 2005. My wife calls it our 4 dr. Corvette. ( we also have 2 older corvettes) The car is absolutely loaded. Power Moon Roof, AM/FM/Satellite/6CD CD Changer/Navigation, Power everything. I have added Magnaflow exhaust, K&N FIPK cold air intake and a programmer. I have all of the original components to go with the car. I am the second owner and I have owned it since March 2009. The car is in impeccable condition. All original paint with only two minor imperfections, 1 door ding (see photo) and the paint shows cracks on the rear bumper in one spot (see photo). The front bumper, hood, mirrors, ect. have no stone chips. This car is as clean as a 2013. I have always garaged the car and did not drive it in bad weather (snow). The interior looks almost like a new car. It has leather seating with suede centers and white piping. No tears or rips anywhere. The car has always been hand washed by me, fortunately my barn is heated and insulated, making it easy to wash a car anytime. I have always used Mobil1 oil in the car. Last summer I replaced the radiator (noticed it leaking during an oil change). While I had the radiator out, I replaced all of the hoses including the heater hoses, replaced the thermostat, belts, idler pulleys, etc. Has all of the original manuals with it, owners manual, OnStar manuals and disk, navigation manuals and disk, original leather case with Cadillac note pad. The tires are still in good condition and are the same ones that were on it when I bought the car. The car it had roughly 128 thousand miles on it when I bought it, shortly there after the electronic odometer quit working, all other gages worked fine, so I didn't worry about it. I did just replace it so that new owner wouldn't have to worry about it, but I have no idea how many miles I have put on it, well less that the life of the tires, therefore I'm selling it miles unknown. The motor runs excellent with 42 psi oil pressure idling, everything on the car works as if it were new. The only exception is over time 3 of the tire pressure monitors have quit working, planned on replacing them when it needed new tires, just doesn't need any yet. Look the pictures over, you will see that this car is in very good condition and a blast to drive. I have set the reserve low since I recently lost my job and would be better off with the money in the bank. I described the car to the best of my abilities, but I'm sure I missed a thing or two. So, if you have any questions, please ask them, I encourage coming and looking at the car, you will be surprised as to how nice it is. I did add a mini receiver type of trailer hitch a couple of years ago. I only pulled a small open motorcycle trailer with my motorcycle on it once. I didn't like my bike being exposed to the elements, decided I'd rather use my truck with an enclosed trailer and spend a little extra on gas. My apologies for jumping around with the description stuff, just listed the information as it hit me.
Now for the legal stuff, selling as-is, where-is, how-is, no warranties expressed or implied. All descriptions are my opinion, yours may vary.

2015 Cadillac ATS sedan gets early reveal in making-of video
Mon, 30 Jun 2014Cadillac is apparently preparing to roll out a minor facelift for the ATS sedan - which we know not because General Motors has already revealed it or because we're looking at it in a fresh batch of spy shots (though we've seen that too), but because a behind-the-scenes video from the filming of its commercial has leaked out online. Which may be bad news for Cadillac, and even worse news for the film production company, but good news for us, because we get to see it ahead of schedule.
The revised sports sedan seems to be sporting a new front bumper and less egg-cratey grille with Caddy's new wreath-less badge at its center, all apparently put in place to bring the sedan more in line with the new ATS coupe.
We're sure Cadillac will be revealing the updated 2015 ATS sedan shortly, but you can scope it out right now in the video below. By way of comparison, we've included an image gallery of the current ATS, released back in 2013, as well.
If Cadillac’s smart, the CT5 will be a CTS without baggage
Fri, Jul 28 2017Cadillac is, mercifully, about to rationalize its lineup, something that's been a long time coming. The CTS is one of those cars that gets admiration from reviewers, like us, for a concerted effort from GM to engineer an underlying platform that matches the Germans in terms of raw dynamics. From buyers, it gets not even a shrug as they, oblivious to its existence, walk right into BMW and Mercedes dealerships. The reasons for this have a lot to do with the sheer brand recognition, and the image, of the German competitors. You can't really lay that all at GM's feet, but what you can do is critique the uninspired drivetrain selection. The 3.6-liter V6 is a crude implement, making its 335 horsepower roughly. The BMW's equivalent inline six makes its power smoothly, with modern forced induction. There's no directly comparable E-Class sedan until you get into the V-Sport versus E43 situation, but the turbo four is smooth. And the interior? No question. The Mercedes is jaw-slacking. The story for the CTS's turbo four is largely the same. Some blame also has to be leveled at the first- and second-generation CTS sedans, which adopted an odd strategy: sell a slightly larger sedan to folks looking at 3-Series, A4, and C-Class, but at about the same price. Folks weren't interested in a larger car for the same money. Despite the third-gen CTS's growth into the 5-Series size class, the CTS still seems like an odd in-betweener in the sport luxury segment – psychologically, if not physically. CTS sales are in the toilet in 2017, and GM is smart to shake things up. So with the announcement that Cadillac head honcho Johan de Nysschen has finally been allowed to kill off underperforming models, the CTS is toast. (As is the ATS, and much more importantly, the XTS – a shambling dinosaur of a sedan.) What's next is the CT5, and that's what we're interested in now. Cadillac has until 2019 to figure out what the CT5 actually is. That isn't a lot of time, so our money is on it being a repositioned, rationalized CTS. The platform's not bad; it's heavier than the larger CT6, but it's fairly modern. Sadly, it's unlikely that any of the standard powertrain options will get a revamp, but maybe some additional sound deadening or an active engine mount system to reduce NVH will quell the V6's bad habits. View 32 Photos More importantly, Cadillac will get a chance to work on the interior look, almost certainly aligning it more closely with the much improved CT6. That'll help a lot.
Weekly Recap: 2016 CTS-V gives Cadillac new momentum for the new year
Sat, Dec 27 2014It's been a rough year for Cadillac. The historic luxury carmaker been in the news for all of the wrong reasons: Declining sales, ditching its advertising agency and the relocation of its headquarters from Detroit to New York. But in late December, Cadillac reminded everyone what it does best: Build some of the rawest and most compelling luxury sedans in the world, as evidenced by the 2016 CTS-V. This monster churns out 640 horsepower from a supercharged 6.2-liter V8. Sound familiar? That's the Corvette Z06 engine, and it makes this CTS the most powerful production Cadillac ever. It also puts the sporting divisions of the Germans on notice. The new CTS-V easily overpowers the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S 4Matic and its 5.5-liter biturbo V8 rated at 577 hp, and the BMW M5 (with the competition pack) and its 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 that pushes out 575 hp. The rear-wheel drive Cadillac can sprint to 60 miles per hour in 3.7 seconds, which is close to the 3.5-second time turned in by the 4Matic-driven E63 S, and a bit quicker than the 4.1 seconds posted by the M5. With Magnetic Ride Control, General Motors' stout eight-speed automatic transmission (also used in the Corvette), Brembo brakes and a carbon-fiber option package that pretty much builds your car out of carbon fiber – it's clear this Cadillac means business. Truth be told, we expected this CTS-V to deliver. It's been a serious sports sedan for a decade, and the recent generation and its 556-hp arrogance have been particularly memorable. But notice what we're doing here? We're talking about product. Not who makes Cadillac's ads, or if the brand's headquarters has a mailing address in NYC. Like the 2016 ATS-V that's due in the spring, the debut of the 2016 CTS-V (on sale in late summer) is a shot in the arm for Cadillac, and its arrival comes during time of transition. The brand is trying to reinvent itself as a modern luxury maker. It wants new customers, a different image and obviously more sales. Those things are going to take time, but with a 640-hp sledgehammer of a sports sedan on tap for next year, Cadillac can still maintain some of its swagger through all of the change.
