New user saying Hi!

[thesameguy]

Just thought I'd post a Hello message... I picked up an '07 V at the end of December and decided it'd be worthwhile to sign up. I'm the proud second owner of an immaculate black on black CTS-v. It had 17,000 miles on it when I picked it up, and I just turned 18k over the weekend.

Chances are pretty slim I'll ever do anything to do it short of drive the snot of out of it - although that is subject to change if I ever decide to hit a track day with it. My car budget is pretty focused on other projects, and the CTS was about as close as I could get to a practical daily driver, so I really don't think I'll want to do anything that will compromise it.

Anyway, Hi!

Welcome to the Freak show! Where the advice is free and the opinons of most are worthless. As those that can't do, teach... and those that can't teach, teach gym class. Thank the good lord we have another LS2 in this dissfunctional family, as the 04-05ers war with the much better built, 06-07 LS2 clan. Unite the clans!!! Nah, That Wouldn't Be Any Fun!

We will all agree about one thing though..GET A SHIFTER a.s.a.p ( B&M )
hint hint.

Also feel free to pm me for any solid advice pertaining to our ls2 platform.

Ciao' Robero'

You're going to need to mod it to make sure black is still the fastest color!

New shifter is a must. (I found other things that needed mods)

Oh BTW, there are losts of go fast goodies for the LS(2 or 6). Heads, Cams, super chargers, headers, intakes........ What a wonderful motor.

This is a dangerous place, you will get bit by the mod bug if you hang out here too much.

Ill be on stand-by when you start moding the hell out of your 07 V...

Actually, you guys do raise a good point - the stock shifter is terrible. I just finished putting a T5 in my XR4Ti and topped it off with a Steeda Triax. A couple days in the CTS made me forget what a good shifter is like, but I drove the XR around tonight and, yeah, I think I will pretty much have to do something similar in the CTS. Guess I'll put that on my to-do list...
