Default New ride - '13 CTS-V

Thought I'd share this. Over the past few years I have transitioned from an '09 Z coupe - '10 Z roadster - '14 Murano to a CTS-V. I know of at least one other (ex?)member here who purchased a V wagon and loves it. Lovin' my V also. If you ever get a chance to drive one, go for it.

Congrats dude! I've driven a fair share of CTS-Vs as company cars and they are a blast! I just hope you are ready for the gas guzzling that is to ensue...!

p.s. that thing is SO easy to whip around, very controllable!

Nice! My Dad is on his second regular CTS Coupe. I give him endless grief for it being an automatic, but it's a cool car and fun to drive, even sans the V power and proper transmission.
