My newest addition, let the modding begin!!
I have always wanted a CTS-V Caddy since they came out but seemed to be very expensive even for a high mileage one. Always thought it would be badass to hear one with a nasty lope, just plain nasty.
Well my friends, thats what I am planning to do. Keep and eye out in DFW area for a nasty caddy in the next month.
All I have done in 24hrs of ownership is K&N Filter and fabbed up my own 2.5" to 3.5" to 4" exhaust and 285/40-18 rubber. Figured I could build a turbo kit, I could fab up my own exhaust. Sounds great now!!
Details, 2004 CTS-V, LS6, M12 6Speed, Loaded to the max.

Dang Cole, underneath yours is pure sex. What headers did you use?
Thanks everyone for the compliments. I love this car, crazy to think of what it is going to sound like with a cam coming from a sedan.

i am running Kooks 1 7/8" with Magnaflow cat back. the sound is absolutely amazing, and VERY quite at idle and cruise. the only problem i ran into was Kooks doesnt have mid pipes for Magnaflow, they X pipe had to be custom cut in there. well worth it though. if you will be at North Star tonight, i will be up that way...and you can here Betty first hand . but i am working a before and after video for the exhaust note right now.

MPG: i can get 25 to 26 @ 75mph with about 28 to 30 @ 60. since i have to LS2 (06-07 Vs), i cant speak for the LS6 (04-05 Vs) for sure. but i think they get a tick or 2 more then me. but my average combined is 14 to 15 .
