I doubt it. The new CTS with the 3.6L, the fancy new interior, bigger wheels, more expensive body stamping, LED tails, etc, etc, etc... is going to sticker for less than a base 2007.

Much to my chagrin (as a salesperson), GM is serious about their "Total Value Promise" and continues to build more expensive cars and not raise the price at all, choosing instead to cut the dealers' profit to nothing. It's great as a consumer, but crap for someone trying to hold a reasonable profit. As it is now, you barely make a few hundred (commision) if you sell a CTS at window sticker- and guess how often that happens....

Count on the '09 V coming in under $60k.

As promised, if all this speculation comes true I'll be back. Sick ain't it. V love is like a disease. That damned car failed me more times than I care to remember and I'm still willing to get back in. LOL. Here's what I need:

500+HP / 475TQ(could care less how they get it, just get it)
Bullet proof Trans / Diff.
No wheel hop
5 lug wheels


They've already taken care of the interior issues from what I've seen.

This should be named "The V Spec Spec thread".

[Dave's V]

There was an article about the 09V in one of the recent car mags. They are saying 600hp from a "detuned" SC LS7. I just hope the rear end is rated for 650hp.

Now I have to wait to 08/09 to see the next remodel before I buy another V (had to trade my old one in due to a medical condition). At least I'll be able to afford this one as a weekend driver this time.
