Default 2005 Cadillac CTS-V

2005 Cadillac CTSV
Mileage: 126xxx

Redline Red w/Sunroof
Chrome rims, NO CURB RASH

I replace ALL the radio buttons.
Corsa Cat-Back
K@N Intake
UUC Motor & Transmission mounts
UUC Shifter Bushings
BMR Pinion Support Brace
Nice Spare painted style, but same style as current chrome rims
Previous owner had DVD/TV screens intalled in both headrests. I've never used them, and really don't add any value to the car IMO. They work though.

Paint is great, but external of the car would be rated at about a 6/10. There is very little damage from a hale storm I had to go through a few years ago. (10-15 dings) There is clear coat cracking on the drivers side between the A and B-Pillars. There are a few scratches/dings, but nothing out of the ordinary for a car with the mileage.
Tires are still pretty good as well. I replaced the brakes on the car about 20k miles ago.

Interior is great. There are a few cracks on a few interior components. One is the bezel around the shifter has two broken tabs. The plastic bezel under the drivers seat is also cracked. Everything is still functional though. Other than that, the interior looks great. All interior electronics work as expected. No issues whatsoever.

I looked at the maintenance records, and to the best of my knowledge, this is still the stock Dual-Mass flywheel clutch setup. I have not changed it, it works well but there is the known "clunk" from this factory setup. I feel that this car is very dependable and have loved it. I bought the car with 72xxx miles on it.

Needs to be fixed
OBDII CEL Emissions Code: ???? This is probably a gas cap
Rear Right TPMS malfunctions when cold.
Check Coolant Sensor needs to be replaced. Giving false reading when cold.


Looking for input on when I could expect for private sale, and trade in.

Thanks,
Chris

there is a guy trying to sell one in the classifieds with similar miles and maybe condition also for $13k and its still for sale so maybe that gives you an idea and another one with 116k for 12k.
