New Stable Mate ;-) Well, not new, but new to us. I've always been a fan of the CTS-V's but never really pulled the trigger on one. My wife has been wanting a CTS for a while now and just yesterday I spotted this one on craigslist about 1.5 hours south of us. It was kinda late but we tried calling anyways. We talked about the car for a little and I told him I wanted to check it out. We drove down to Fresno this morning (ironically that's where we bought our Z06) to check it out. We looked it over then took it for a spin. It's a nice car, I love the fact that it shares the same drivetrain with the Z 
For the price we couldn't pass it up. We paid $13K, and it has 71K miles on it and it's in really nice shape. Here's a few pix :thumbs:

Lol, yea not bad. I called him at almost 10 PM, he listed it at 7:30 yesterday. I hope it works out as well. My Escalade has been running forever so I hope this one will be just as good.

Thanks guy's! Yep bone stock, only way I really wanted it. I wasn't actually even planning on buying a car, just happened to be looking around. I was thinking it's too good to be true, because I was just looking at an 05 at a dealer for $20K. I know the dealers are a ripoff, but still. It will remain mostly stock, later on I might throw some true forged wheels on it, but that's it.

Wheels and mounts... After u change all the oils of course.. But deff change out the motor, trans and diff mounts.
It's one of those things that really tighten up all te loose ends and make the car feel 100x better. Plus they will go no matter how nice u drive it.
