Default CTS-V in houston

Thinking about getting a CTS-V and stumbled across a pretty clean one at MTI motorsports. I was wondering if this caddy belonged to anyone on the forum and if so any input on it?
-Thanks.

Thats a pretty sick looking caddy! I bought my Vette from David and he sold my GTO. Cool guy. He should be able to set you up with a test drive if you are really interested.

That is a KILLER deal for all the parts on the car. CTS-V parts are as, or more, expensive than 'vette parts. The UUC shifter (best you can get) is $400 just for the stick lol.

I'd say go for it. I've been driving the pants off of my CTS-V since I bought it.

I've been around. Been to a few meets, mostly ottos. We haven't had any meets in Katy in a while. I see you got a few new mods! Have any pics of your car?
