Mallett Cadillac CTS-V

The Ultimate Performance Sedan
This is what you've been waiting for: a luxury car with the heart and soul of a racecar!

The Mallett CTS-V combines Cadillac styling and refinement with Mallett brute-force power and handling. The package is designed exclusively for all CTS-V sedans.

We start with our custom roller-cam and add our race-proven porting configuration to your cylinder heads to allow the engine to breathe the way it was intended. Finally, our exclusive "D" port stainless headers are port-matched to the free-flowing heads. Dyno-tuned and putting 400 REAR WHEEL horsepower to the ground, this is a true sports-luxury sedan capable of outperforming anything in its class.

Included with every Mallett CTS-V conversion is the famous Mallett billet shifter, which gives you the confidence and feel you need for precise gear changes. Available Mallett double-adjustable, or non-adjustable Indy-style shocks give your car additional stability and grip without sacrificing ride quality. Rounding-out this package are the exclusive Mallett exterior graphics and tastefully embroidered logos on your headrests.

As an added bonus, we assign your vehicle one of our archival serial numbers. Our commitment to quality and innovation has earned all Mallett "serialized" conversion packages an exclusive listing in the N.A.D.A. appraisal guide.

Its probably not gonna handle the wheel hop at all, there will have to be some upgrades to that drivetrain for sure, I've had the feeling like I was going to break it once I turned the TCS off on a stock one........

I can't see it lasting long with a turbo charged 7.0L motor.....

Those rims look like the ones that are going to be an option soon for the V's

They look very similar to the ones pictured above, we had a book at my work that showed all the options that are soon to come, like the carbon fiber engine cover, STB, cross drilled rotors, and the rims.....

Very nice, That CTS-V grows on me a little more every day

*sigh* why can't the GTO be optioned with all the cool details. I tell you for the price difference and what you get the CTS-V is almost a bargain. If they slap an LS2 in there.....*ooh chills*....

LS2 should go in there later on this year after the vette comes out I would think.....they might just switch it over to being the standard motor w/the same HP, then later on bring out the motor which will appear in the new Z06

Yea I really wasn't too fond of the styling at first but it is really starting to grow on me. If I got one though I'd likely feel obligated to put Chrome Spinna Dubs on it though

Maybe maybe not, I think they're targeting a different demographic and trying to make Cadillac a name used in conjunction with BMW.... not entirely a bad thing I guess.
