Looking to buy a Caddy...

[caddyjack]

i bought my CTS in 2006 and have never had a problem with it, I may be a caddy girl for life, I love that car. Maybe 1 day i will have the V

Avoid that option. Black wheels are played out worse than Cobra R's ever were. lol.

I would if I were able to buy new, I'm not a fan of it. I just didn't understand why I was seeing so many similar ones.

Is that a factory option? I was wondering why so many cars around here had it.

I think that's part of the "Black Diamond" package

Some do not share your opinion. I like the way the car looks...even with the "played out" black wheels.

That's it, I've heard of that.

Of course. It's good to have diversity. If everyone's cars looked the same that would be boring. Do your thing bro, it's still a badass car. It's just my personal opinion that I don't care for a "murdered out" (such a stupid term) car with black everything. I don't see the point of having such a nice car and blacking it all out to take away from the details of such a nice car. Plus, black wheels always look really dirty, that would drive me insane.

[davbrucas]

I hear ya...I am not fond of the juvenile "murdered out" descriptor either. But I do think my car looks perfect with the black wheels...

I have my car detailed once a week.

Yea that's a good idea, I'll do that soon.

Tou should bring the V out to the cruise at Denton on the 20th

hell to the no.

Wont be in town or I would. I've already been a lot of 7.0's without nitrous. I think its a mid 6 second car how it sits when we get some track time, but we'll see.

PM Junkie. He has the blown LS9 CTS-V for his daily. I believe his was 55k used and he loves it. I'm sure he can point you in the right direction.

Yea I will probably talk to him at some point. Not in a hurry. In fact, depending on what I can get a new one for (especially when they start rolling in the 2012 models), we might get a new one.

55k for a used one at say 9% (guessing here) versus 63k for a new one at zero percent , the new one would cost the same in the end be be a better value, IMO.

Hes already seen mine and raced me I think. That was around 180rw ago I'd like to take another swing

He's already got it pullied, headers, exhaust and spray on it. It's fuckin fast! Easily in the 6's in the 1/8th.

Hopefully mid 6's at 108-110mph but we'll see. Thats all speculation. It runs a little over 100mph on boost.

FYI guys the auto cars run pretty well for how heavy they are. I've taken down several 550hp Vettes, Fbodies, 600hp Cobras, came out barely on top of a 6xx RW Supra from a roll, etc... This car continues to amaze me, I love it!

By the time you are ready to mod yours I will have made every mistake in that book so just get at me lol

don't worry, black wheels have always and will always be good looking if done right.

Steve said Mustangs were played out back when he didn't have one. Then he went and bought a fox body!

[scootro]

LoL. I dont have a PhD. And dont hate. You had the same opportunities in life that I did.

And I drive a CTSV. My wife has an Escalade.

haha! just screwing with ya! i could care less

i've always liked the storm trooper look, also!

[Junkie]

Some cars look great with black wheels and some dont, personally I think it depends on the style the owner is going for. I love matte black wheels on a car that is supposed to look race themed or "mean" But its really hard to pull off a classy black wheel combo

700ish, I'm down for doing it this weekend, maybe hit kellers or something? Or we can wait a few weeks and let it cool off. Roll or dig?

I agree that the "murdered out" look is as queer as a three dollar bill. When it's a factory option on a 09+ CTS-V, not so much.
