Blistering fast 2004 Cadillac CTS-V in
knock-out condition with only 52,657 miles. The
cam in the already powerful LS6 gives this Caddy a
menacing idle and with the Volante cold air intake,
Kooks long tube headers and Magnaflow exhaust, this
rocket is good for at least 450 horsepower.
Beautiful body and paint looks especially sinister with
7-spoke high polish 18-inch wheels and with a 6-speed
manual, rear wheel drive and Brembo brakes, this
Cadillac is the highest quality, low mileage CTS-V on
the market - and likely the fastest too . . .

Fog lights, xenon headlamps and stainless
wire mesh grilles are CTS-V exclusive. Front park,
side marker and back-up lenses are smoked . . .
Fenders filled with Dunlop high
performance rubber, the 4-piston Brembo brakes squeeze
enormous 14-inch cross drilled rotors. Dark tint
looks great and keeps things cool inside . . .
No accident history, no hits, no damage,
everything works, nothing is broke. The 5.7 Liter LS6
screams to its 6,500 RPM redline, barking 2nd and chirping
3rd gear, on its way to a rev limited 163 MPH top speed.
This ain't your grandpa's Sedan deVille and with the engine
mods, nothing in its segment from Europe even comes close .
. .
A Getrag 3.73 posi gets it done out back and
FE4 performance, independent front and rear suspension nails
this Cadillac to the tarmac for breathtaking cornering
limits . . .
Rare combination of great service history,
ultra low miles and pricey mods = fast Caddy . . .
Engine fires immediately and as
intimidating as it sounds, the exhaust note is never
annoying. (in fact, I start it sometimes just to hear it
idle - Foy) It is well behaved in traffic and
if unprovoked, is docile as a kitten. But, drop the
hammer at any speed, in any gear and the lion awakes with
alarming ferocity. The power comes on like a fire
hose; seamless and seemingly without end. The Tremec
close ratio 6-speed clicks off shifts with precision while
suede leather inserts grip you snug in a roomy interior.
Besides being faster and better looking than any CTS you can
buy, this V has averaged barely 5,800 miles a year since
new. Bullet proof Corvette drive train, low mileage,
superior condition and functional perfection puts this 2004
Cadillac CTS-V at the top of the market. Intake, cam,
headers and exhaust puts it over the top.
Ebony leather interior is in superb
condition with billet foot pad and pedals. White LED
footwell, map and door puddle lights . . .
DVD navigation, Bose audio with 8-speakers,
8-way power seats with power lumbar, tire pressure
monitoring, Stabilitrak with 4 driver selected modes,
auto-dimming mirrors, 8-airbags and heated seats . . .
Chrome ringed instruments and 6-speed
manual transmission.
With a billet catch can, Volante cold
air intake, Kooks headers and Magnaflow exhaust with
crossover, I estimate this LS6 makes something over 450
horsepower. - Foy
Stainless steel long tube headers, two
Magnaflow front mufflers, X-pipe and two Magnaflow rear
mufflers produce a deep, authoritative note that is
certain to impress . . .
Volante cold air intake and aluminum
catch can . . .
Spotless undercarriage is new car
beautiful . . .

Original owner books.
A note from the owner.
I am a “used car dealer” but before that,
I’m an automobile enthusiast. I love original rare and high
quality modified vintage cars and over the past decade I’ve
been in business, have come to appreciate an expanding
selection of high-demand, high value vehicles. I specialize
in and am always on the lookout for cars and trucks that
were cherished by their previous owners. I have an
experienced eye for quality but I’ve discovered that my
preferred buyer can instantly discern such a vehicle and I
have therefore, built my business and reputation around
finding these kinds of cars for this type of customer.
Super low miles and/or gentle ownership are strict
requirements but a car must do something for me on a
personal level if there is any hope of convincing you, the
bidder, that this is an above average, exceptional
vehicle. If nothing about the car excites me, it probably
won’t do much for you either and I would soon be out of
business.
With just four employees and no sales
people, I realize how unusual a “dealership” like mine may
at first glance appear. It has taken great care and effort
to create such an organization and often, an unusually high
investment in a particular car we are about to list. To
sell the best it is critical to have a trusted expert in my
corner and Chris, owner of
A-Best Auto Repair
in Henderson, Nevada has my back. He and his crew can fix
anything; from a low budget beater to the absolute
most expensive exotic you can name, no job is too big and no
small detail unimportant. They do an exhaustive 130 point
inspection on each and every vehicle and nothing escapes
their methodical investigation. Experience has shown that
everything I spend making a car truly “right” will come back
to me not only with a higher selling price, but a happy
customer that says good things about me. Moreover; it
allows my writer to describe the car with ease and
confidence, something that simply is not possible unless
he thinks it is true. If major issues are found or the
cost of fixing the car the way it should be makes it too
expensive to sell, my choice is an easy one. I simply
absorb a few hundred dollars loss for my trouble and sell it
at auction.
After the vehicle is fully sorted it
arrives at our facility where it encounters the suspicious
eye of Tom, my writer that creates the presentations you see
on eBay. He believes absolutely nothing I or anyone else
tells him about the car as he combs over every inch,
researches its history and documents originality and
authenticity. Historical significance, rarity, special
features, possible modifications and much more are used to
accurately describe the vehicle with integrity and honesty.
Most important for the potential buyer are the 100 to 150
high resolution pictures that I take myself. The pricey
equipment I use would be right at home in the hands of the
very best professional photographers and I’ve developed a
logical format that walks you around the entire vehicle with
close-up shots of every square inch. I provide detailed
views of the interior, under the hood and then put it on a
lift to show the undercarriage and confirm that the beauty
of the car you are considering is not merely skin deep.
Even our detailers are enthusiastic about the cars they so
meticulously clean. This reconditioning can sometimes take
several days and I’ve converted a paint booth, especially
prepared for the professional clay bar and polishing each
car lovingly receives.
Usually, I’ll also include a high
definition video that shows the car doing its thing. If
it’s a fast car, we film it going fast. If it’s a 4x4
you’ll see it crawling up a hill. In every case you will
hear things like a rumbling exhaust, working sound system
and watch the temperature fall on a digital, laser
thermometer pointed at an air conditioning vent. How many
“dealers” will video a Lotus Esprit doing a buck-eighty? We
do.
No “dealer,” on-line or in the real
world, takes it to this level. No other seller or
organization provides you, the buyer, with so much
information. I do this because it is the only way I can
convince a person; often a world away, unable to touch or
feel their purchase, that my vehicle is for real and what I
say is the truth. All the above is necessary for me to stay
in business while keeping integrity intact. I want every
buyer to be happy and I need glowing feedback on
eBay. To accomplish that I need satisfied customers that
are as thrilled with their purchase as I was when I bought
it.
If you have any questions at all, please
call me on my cell at: 702-353-7500. If your inquiry is
sincere and your offer serious, you’ll find me the most
accommodating business partner you’ve ever dealt with. If
you call or e-mail asking for my reserve or “what is my
bottom line” I will be looking for ways to politely end the
conversation. Until you are ready to actually pull the
trigger, I will happily quote you the absolute highest
nationally advertised suggested retail price I can find – a
number we both know will not buy the car so, don’t waste
your time, or mine. I am after all, a “used car dealer.”
Serious buyers know the maximum they can
offer. I then must simply decide if I can sell for that
number.
If you hit the reserve, the decision is no
longer mine. I must sell at that number.
I don't respond to emails
asking for "bottom line, sale price, reserve, or Buy-it-Now"
figures on top line cars.
THE ONLY WAY YOU GET THOSE
FIGURES IS TO CALL ME!
The book values posted below are relevant to "real" selling
figures.
NADA & KBB wouldn't be
in business if they posted nonsense. But they only account
for averages around the nation. If this car is less than or
better than average, bid or offer accordingly.

Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel. Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.
This year's annual Eyes on Design awards were presented at the end of press days for the Detroit Auto Show on Tuesday. Given out for the best production and concept car designs that debuted at the show, and voted on by an esteemed panel of actual car designers, this year's award for best production vehicle design went to the 2014 Cadillac ELR. The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, which was the show favorite among Autoblog editors, apparently did not impress the Eyes on Design judges enough with its all-new vent-festooned design. The award for best concept design was actually split as a tie among the Nissan Resonance and Ford Atlas concepts. Last year's winners were the 2013 Ford Fusion and the Lexus LF-LC concept. The Eyes on Design organization also presented a new honor this year called the Catalyst Award to Bob Lutz, former Vice Chairman of General Motors. Lutz is reported to have given a defense of design in his acceptance speech, arguing that advancements in quality across the industry as a whole have made good design a key differentiator for buyers.
Our first drive of the 2014 Cadillac CTS was just published today... we really liked the Vsport version. And Consumer Reports has some even stronger words of praise for the all-new luxury sedan. We already knew that Cadillac had stepped up its game with the third-gen CTS, but CR bluntly states that the sedan drives better than its German luxury counterparts. While CR shows plenty of love for the new CTS, the outlet still takes issue with some of the in-car technology including the CUE infotainment system - no surprise there. The testers' offer all manner of positive comments where the impressive handling capabilities of the sedan are concerned, with lots of drifting around CR's private test facility in evidence to bear them out. Scroll down to watch the CTS get put through its paces.
