    The CTS coupe is still one of the most beautiful cars ever made. I had one, and traded in. Biggest mistake of my life. For the past two years I regretted it until two days ago when I saw my car (THE SAME CAR I LET GO TWO YEARS AGO) Go back up for sale on auto trader. I couldn't believe it. My CAR THE CAR I drove. I went and bought her back, and I'll never let her go again. I've owned MANY high end cars since her and I'd choose her again (which I did) everytime :)

    Note on the transmission. When in manual mode just hold the upshift paddle up a few seconds to put it back into auto mode. No need to take it back from the sport setting.

    Well I’ve always wanted to upgrade from my 3.0 CTS to a V. Yesterday I found one that I actually knew. Unfortunately an elderly veteran passed away that I met at a gas station months prior. When I heard he passed, I told myself I’d give it some time and approach the family with a fair offer.
    Turns out they gave it back to a bank. A bank I’ve done business with for decades. So today I’m picking up my 2012 V for 18k. It’s a little rough but still a heck of a deal. I can’t wait.

    I have a 14 coupe... looks just like yours except mine's white. I quickly developed the habit of putting my foot on the lower door edge when opening it to give it an extra push wide open. I absolutely love mine though. I call it a "Werewolf in a Tuxedo". Powerful, fast but comfortable and luxurious. One thing many people don't mention though (although you did) is the ride system. The car handles like a dream at high speed. I have had mine to 165 and still felt in total control of it (although curves can get a bit scary at that speed in ANY vehicle).
    I love my V...

    I Also own a 2011 CTS-V coupe and your on point with all three issues that I also share with owning one. However- It's got such a great base in the engineering that a few after market upgrades can take you to a ridiculous level of performance. I'm gonna add a fourth issue you didn't address. Getting someone in the back seats!!The motor that moves the seats is so slow you are in a minimum 2-3 minutes waiting on the seat to move up, release the backrest button, let whomever contort their body to fall in to a very small area and then return the seat too the needed driving position. For such a fast car the seat motors are SLOOOOW. Overall minor complaints for what I noticed in your video, Its is the SMILE you can't avoid when you dump that gas pedal! Awesome Car!

    I never owned a vehicle over 3 & 1/2 years until I bought my V in 2013. In July I will have owned mine for 7 years. I have fallen in love with it. I’ve never had any issue with it except the front tires I had to get 500’s as the 250’s were too soft & wore in the inside within 8,000 miles & I had to have my super charger replaced thru a recall. I can’t imagine life without my car. I have never seen another one around like my diamond black 2 door. Most have 4 doors. I think I’m going to need therapy some day if I ever decide to sell it. I just rolled 40,000 miles last month. I have a short commute & I don’t drive it every day. I ❤️ your flat black!

    As a CTSV coupe owner, I have to agree with everything Rob is mentioning 😂.
    Rear visibility is garbage and throttle response is slightly delayed when you stab it, but a ported or bigger TB fixes that.
    Would have been nice if he touched on the adjustable suspension and how the sunroof doesn’t slide back.. just tilts up an inch lol.

    Rob great car, I had a 2011 CTS-V that I sent down to Hennessey for their V700 package. Parted with it late 2014, I miss it! This video reminds me of what I loved about it. Real quick, you made a comment @ 7:50 about once you're in sports mode and have shifted manually, you're unable to get back to sports mode with automatic shifting without going to normal D and then back to Sports mode. I learned while having my car you can actually hold one of the tabs on the back of the steering wheel and it will return to automatic shifting. Same with if you hold forward on the gear selector while in sports mode, that will put it back into automatic shifting mode as well. Hope this helps you as it did me when I had the car! - Chris from Grand Rapids

      Scott Ciabattoni maybe not but my car shifts when I tell it not when a computer thinks it’s OK LOL fuck outta here . Automatic can maybe shave 10th of a second off on a track that doesn’t make up for the fun of actually driving around on the street

    That car is bad ass. Especially in that flat black.
    Always loved caddys sport versions of their cars.
    XLR-V yum!
    Mid 90's RX7 was also my dream car.
    I was just a kid in my 20's when my buddy was buying a mid 90's Mazda 6.
    I went with him when he was purchasing it. I wanted to test drive the RX7 so bad so I played it off to his salesman like I had a toon of money and was
    interested in the RX7. No shit he let me take it out, alone! lol . I'll never forget that drive, it was awesome.

      I just wish they put the LS engine in the XLR-V instead of that Northstar v8. Then I would consider buying it over a cts-v. Still, it is one of the coolest cars for the money.

    What you said about the paddle shifting and how once you do it the car wont go back to shifting for itself, next time youre driving it try holding down the upshift paddle. I work at a rental agency so im just driving new cars around all day, and i do my fair share of driving in whatever sport modes the cars offer (track mode with traction control off in the mustang gts, dont tell my boss) and every one that has paddle shifters will allow the car to go back to shifting on its own if you hold the upshift button for 3 seconds i believe. Idk if you even still have the car but if you do might as well give it a try

The ELR (specifically the 2016s) were truly the antithesis of the CTS-V - but so good (and so similar in certain ways).

    @k.r.v.4219 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hell yea! Guardian of the high performance Coupe! You never mentioned the one thing the car mags are always harping on, that would be the CUE system and your thoughts in it! I rented a beautiful 2015, new at the time XTS, the regular AWD V6 all black Cadillac, that I thought was amazing! But being a rental without any owners manual or guide to the CUE system, it did take me a couple days to figure out how to use the radio and Nav. Plus the CUE system is what is called haptic, meaning all the switches do not move in the regular sense, but kind of have a dealing, a pulse of sorts when you've used it correctly. But I'm sure if I had the manual I would have made total sense of it and been pleased. Cause the car itself? Was great! Now they have the new CT6, with three different engines and two different drives, priced from the mid 40's around my area to the high 80's!!! But they say the best driver is the 4 cyl! RWD! With us moving from the New England states, to Fla by the winter and have no longer a need for AWD, I am considering buying a sedan, with a 50k budget. So it's going to be either a Chevy SS a Charger SRT or the CT6, 4 or 6 cyl in my future. It all depends on the local deals and dealers and what is available at the time!
