The CTS-V when it first came out in the early 2000’s was the coolest mob villain car ever. You think of Cadillacs as being quiet, supple, and comfortable. Then you see this bad girl and you’re immediately intrigued

[@AutotopiaLA]

I’ve always been a fan of the V family and this one is a bit extra cool

[@Justin-bz1dp]

[@Albert-nb7zg]

I will take you for a ride in Hon hi MANOA VALLEY BIG AL ALOHA FROM Honolulu

[@pumpkinface8151]

Yup and those first generation CTS V's would have been even bigger monsters at bone stock if they didn't wheel hop and their rear ends didn't explode like grenades. GM made a huge flaw by putting the rear diff's from the V6 models into the V's at the time. Too much power, too much torque for them to handle.

[@joeymccullough2716]

I’m 58 years, old. I grew up with 442’s, Buick GSs & IROCs. I would absolutely love a CTS-V, in my “old” age

[@SidViscious]

I have been a CTS-V fan since day one. A few (well maybe more) years ago I was a the San Diego Auto Show and got there early when it was slow. The guy at Cadillac asked me if I wanted to drive one and I said Oh Hell yeah!!!! When he asked me "which one?" I asked if he had a manual wagon and bwahahahahah, he did. It was so amazing. I have become a Tesla Guy since, but I would buy a "V" up in a minute if given the chance. Thanks for the episode......

[@AutotopiaLA]

The V’s are badass. We shot 2 wagons a while back…one manual and one auto. Both built and both are insanely cool

[@EteonEteon-fs1iz]

I've always been a fan of Cadillac, which began back in 2004 when GM brought a New designer in to reinvigorate the Brand! The engineer they brought in was Wayne Cherry, and it was Wayne Cherry that introduced the Diamond faceted and bevelled body panels look...! And when the 2004 Cadillac CTS-V was released in factory trim with the LS6 5.7L V8 mated to a Tremec 6-speed manuel transmission -- it was a force to be reckoned with! Today I'm turbocharging a Cadillac that has never been done before and it's being built as a reliable, daily driven car! So to see this episode showcasing a 2017 Cadillac CTS-V was surprisingly refreshing...✨! As a long time fan of Cadillac and it's performance breed-line of car's! This by far was one of the most exciting and anticipated episodes to date...💪!
