I had this past Friday off and was just out and about doing some errands. I was driving past the local caddy dealer and noticed a 09 cts-v in the used parking lot. Since I was busy, I kept on driving.
Later on I stopped at my wife's and mother-in-law's company to bring them some lunch. I mentioned the car to the mom-in-law (she loves the V series) and she called them. In 15 minutes they had the car sitting in her parking lot for a demo drive.
The dealer owner, myself and mom-in law took off for a spin.
First he drove, then she drove and finally I drove.
Holy frikin hell that car is a beast. It was WAY more impressive than the previous CTS-V's. The interior is world's beyond the '07. Much more refined and a lot more comfortable. The seats hug you in all of the right places and feel nice. The dash and center console look great as well and the nav screen is nifty, but I really don't like that is has to move up in order for you to use it. It's a moot point considering how much better everything else was.
We took it on some back twisty roads that weren't very crowded and he told us to let it rip. The clutch was smooth and engaged well. It was some serious neck snapping power and it hangs the turns like a champ.
It had 12.5k on the odometer and they were asking $55k for it. Full warranty, etc. Nothing wrong with it. It was a trade in (according to the dealer). Need to carfax it and make sure of the history. They just got it earlier in the week.
She may spring for it. Hell, I would if I had the cash.
