Hi everyone! Decided not to wait for an SS Camaro and just picked up my newest toy this Monday past... a sweet 2006 CTS-V w/ under 1000 miles!

Now there are 2 caddy's in the stable.

Looking forward to learning and sharing all there is to know about this amazing car.

Mike

Re: Hello from a New Member

So what are your plans for the CTS-V????

Daily driver? Weekend toy? All out road course car?

I could never buy a car with that type of crazy low mileage and use it daily. I'd be all about keeping it mint and preserving it.

Re: Hello from a New Member

Mike. Thanks for signing up. That's amazing that somebody only put 1000 miles on the clock of that car. You should drive it and enjoy it. Be sure to check out our V forums.

Re: Hello from a New Member

Thanks for the welcomes.

e-bay is a wonderful thing! Just wait until the perfect deal comes along then pounce.

Current plan is to drive it back to Kansas City tomorrow. Not looking forward to 400 miles of summertime bugs in the grille. Then it'll be put into the rotation with my other vehicles. Definitely a "nice day only" car for the forseeable future.

Other vehicles in the mix:
1971 Boattail Riviera (built 455cid - power everything)
1990 Sedan DeVille (Chrome trunk bucklestraps gleeming )
1997 F-250 (ext cab 8' bed 4x4 460cid lifted)
1998 H-D Sportster Sport 1200cc cams, heads, chopped
2008 Chrysler Town & Country Touring (the wife's car)

Future plans:
I'm going to do some performance mods but don't want it to sound like the neighbor kid's ratted out 80's Monte Carlo SS (fat tires, lumpy cam and flowmaster 40's = POS). Not that there's anything wrong with that. I smile everytime he squeals wheels out of the neighborhood. But I've been there done that with a '72 Gran Torino, a hopped up 351 Maverick, a 5.0 Ranger pick-up and a few other "redneck" engineered hot rods. This will be different. It is a Cadillac after all.

So I'm going to do ALOT of research to do it right the first time. I've also got to find out what is and isn't allowed under warranty. It's been awhile since I've owned a car that had a warranty.

Anywho big brother is watching so I've got to get back to work.

Mike
