If my business takes off in the next 2 1/2 years, thats on the short list of replacements for my current leased Honduh. Too bad the odds of finding a used one with exactly what I would want will be slim/none.

I don't like the way they look, but I'd still love to own one.

^Agreed wholeheartedly. Figure I don't have to look at the outside from the inside.

From what little I've seen about the ATS, is you're looking at 2 1/2 years out, the ATS may be interesting.

There was a black V coupe parked in front of a Cadillac dealer that I drove by yesterday. I almost crashed the car staring.

The coupe is SICK, to hell with rear visibility.

But sadly this is probably the closest I will ever come to one

ugh...I spent an hour behind the coupe in traffic the other day. All 60 minutes of that hour were spent wondering why such a badass car looks so retarded.

The CTS-V sedan and the wagon, on the other hand, look sweet. I see both of them regularly around this area. Seems that the uber-present E46 M3 owners around here are buying a bit differently in the last year or so.

I've been privileged enough to drive a v coupe....and sit in a v wagon and sedan for a while. On my short drive in the coupe...i had people asking me all kinds of questions at stop lights.

Unfortunately due to wanting to keep my job(at least for a little while longer)....i kept it at a reasonable speed....0-50 was quite exciting though.

The wagon was auto tragic...but still pretty neat.

yes! working in Lansing I routinely see them racked up on a car transporter rolling out of the holding lots from Grand River assembly heading down the road to who knows where.

I don't think they always photograph well, but they're one of those cars that just have an impactful presence in person. Even the "black diamond" which shouldn't work... murdered out dark rims, yellow rotors, on a "classy" car... the CTS-V just pulls off somehow.

mmmm... V wagon. That's my dream ticket... all dark wagon CTS-V. Darth Vader style.

Hennessey will take a wagon and put a blower on it, and it'll make 700 horsepower and I think 750 torques. And they black it all out for you. And call it 'the Battle Wagon.'

Look at even a CTS Sport from behind. The driver and passenger sit between the wheels. By that, I mean that the outside of the driver's seat is to the right of the inside lip of the driver's side wheels. That's pretty cool.

I like the sedan and wagon but for some reason I think the coupe is really ugly.

Right there with ya. Love those 2, not high on the coupe design.

I'd have to go silver with black wheels for the wagon.

One of my neighbors has a black CTS-V sedan. Looks and sounds sweet (I never thought I'd say that about a Cadillac but it's true).

yes, Im feeling the caddy luv, mainly for the wagon, not so much for the coupe, which sucks bad in my book, my original post was for a sedan that I saw in Northern Kentucky, go in peace my friend

oh, and I love the hennesse website but can you get him to work on the car without all the silliness, like logos on the seats, and badges and other crap that you don't need?

That's my dad's new toy, right down to the colors. I got to drive it for a short loop, and even goose the throttle once. It really is amazingly capable - planted, controlled, and immense power reserves.

The best part was watching my dad hem & haw about me actually getting behind the wheel of his baby!

I prefer the CTS-V in sedan form. As far as wagons go, I think Holden really nailed it with the new Commodore.
