FINALLY got my dream ride. Its a 2005 CTS-V with 51k miles, & in immaculate condition. Needless to say, I'm in love with this beast.
Its already tastefully modded. Has a cam (228/232 duration. 111 LSA, 612 intake/600 exhaust), Full B&B exhaust from the 1 3/4 longtubes to the 3" x pipe & catback, electric cutouts, eibach springs, QA1 adjustable shocks/struts, 3rd gen diff upgrade,anti hop axles, cradle bushings, custom poly motor mounts, LS7 clutch, uuc shifter, & tuned by Newtech. For a 3,800+ Lb car, man this thing scoots, & rides smoothly in the process LOL... Im in love for sure....
I don't have any new pics, becuase my DSLR is down, but here are a few pics & vids the previous owner sent me...

Nice! It sure sounds and looks like its got all the right parts. I bet it hustles pretty good. These GM sedans are no joke. What kind of power did it put down again?

Congrats on getting your dream ride bro! Always a good feeling to get a new car. Looks like it's in great condition. Tastefully modded also.
You think you'll get tired of this one? ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif) [ February 13, 2011, 10:40 PM: Message edited by: 90FoX ]

Thanks guys... Like I said, I'm in love with this car, I already went through a tank & a half of gas in 24 hours LOL. I picked it up for $22k, but after tax & license, I financed $19,500 since I paid some of it in cash. I think its a killer deal & a hell of an upgrade. I doubt I will get tired of this one, the thing rides sooooo damn smooth, & its crazy how many heads it turns because of how gnarly it sounds. People trip out & say "man whats in that thing" because you would never expect a Caddy to sound this way LOL...
The car already has the right mods, I honestly don't think I will do anything to it at this point other than drive the hell out of it.Im sick of having cars that I always have to wrench on, or adjust this, or fix that, I just want a car I can get in & drive, & thats where this fits in the equation. It moves out good, & feels like it would've destroyed the Mach in a race. I can't remember, but I think he said it made around 400rwhp?
Lee, thanks again for the help!!! ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif) [ February 13, 2011, 11:27 PM: Message edited by: *EPIK* ]
