I had one of the first Vs in April, 2004. Had 5 1/2 (mostly) great years with it. Have been on the Cadillacforums since June, 2004.

But I just couldn't pass up a 2009 White Diamond V with everything except Recaro seats. With $12k off sticker (GMS and GM incentive) and a generous trade-in on my 2004 V, it was a no-brainer (although I guess i should have told my wife before doing the deal).

Looking forward to making new friends on this forum.

Welcome and congrats. Your wife will forgive you in time. Just wait for her to calm down before you start modding.

What are your impressions comparing the two cars? As for the wife - let her buy a microwave oven, refrigerator or sewing machine without consulting you. Problem solved :).

Sure glad to see some other guys moving over from the V1 forum.
Owned my V1 nearly 4 yrs and still miss it some days.
With all the time you spend at the track I'm surprised you didn't get the Recaros.

Give me a couple of weeks and I'll give you some detailed impressions.
