Default Some pics of my 07.

I decided to take the car out for a drive today, I got the car about 6 months ago with 26k miles and have put a little under 3k miles on it. I love how many heads turn when they hear the exhaust then see its a caddy

Looking great, what's your suspension setup?

I have to agree, the best part about owning a V series is how it mind ***** everyone when cruising around town.

It has the Corsa exhaust option from the factory with Magnaflow mufflers.

No issues on the current setup, I did have TD wheels with 275 tires and they did rub until I rolled the lip behind the fender.

H&R Springs with the FG2 shock option from the factory.

Looks good, especially with those sidemarker lenses and fogs.

Nice!

Those shocks allow for a further drop? Hmmmm. I am on H&R's and would like the rear to be quite a bit lower.

I had FE4's and now I have FG2's with the same H&R Springs. It didn't make a difference in the rear. I actually raised mine up a bit in the back with a spacer under the spring because it rode way to low.

Mine is definitely too high in the rear. You must have the MM spacers...?
