Cadillac’s CTS nameplate entered the scene in 2002 as the replacement for the Catera in the mid-sized luxury car, or executive car segment. Running through three generations and produced as a sedan, sport wagon and coupe, the CTS nameplate saw the sunset in 2019. What we have here is a 2011 Cadillac CTS V Coupe of the second generation. The second generation premiered at the 2007 North American Auto Show, and debuted a year later. It was the only generation to offer all three body styles. This example comes from Indiana with 59,500 miles on the clock, and a host of upgrades under the skin.
The second-generation CTS saw a sharpening of the angular lines, and this 2011 Cadillac CTS V Coupe highlights that in its Pearl White exterior, complemented by 19-inch black alloys. Recessed door handles, a deck lid spoiler, smoked rear lighting clusters and purposeful twin chrome exhaust pipes differentiate it from lesser models, if the ‘V’ badges weren’t enough. The interior presents itself in black, with black leather seating for four occupants. The front powered, heated, and ventilated seats have the ‘V’ emblem on them. The ‘Air Force’ gauge sits proud center on the dash. You also get an entertainment system with radio and CD player. Cruise control is present on the steering wheel buttons as well.
The stock second generation CTS-V has a 376ci (6.2L) Chevrolet LSA supercharged V8 under the hood, that kicks out 556hp and 551lb.ft of torque to the rear wheels via a 6L-90 six-speed automatic transmission. This example has been fettled and is reported to be running 17 psi of boost, with reported power and torque figures at 776hp and 710lb.ft. There’s a host of upgrades under the hood, including 1,000cc injectors, a 10% over harmonic balancer, D3 Pro Speed front intercooler, stage LSA head porting, BTR Supercharged stage-2 cam, valve springs with retainers and pushrods, C5R timing chain, ARP balancer bolt, Nick Williams boosted throttle body, PNR ice tank, DSX flex fuel kit and auxiliary pump, Kong ported blower, Stainless Works exhaust, DDP cold air intake, brand-new NGK spark plugs that were recently installed, Mighty Mouse oil catch can and a brand-new battery installed in 2021. Factory parts include the J56 big brake kit that includes 6-piston calipers at the front. The CTS-V also comes with Cadillac’s adjustable Magneride technology for the adaptive dampers. A stock CTS-V is rated at 4.0 seconds flat for the zero to sixty sprint and the top speed of automatic variants is limited to 175mph, so this boosted example should better the factory figures.

Cadillac has been around for decades, and throughout its time, it was exclusively known as a luxury car manufacturer with some of the best options you could get on an American car. It was a no-brainer when Cadillac introduced the expensive-looking Cadillac CTS in 2002, replacing the outgoing Cadillac Catera model. What was a surprise was the introduction of the Cadillac CTS-V variant of the regular CTS. The V in the CTS-V stands for "Victory," a direct competitor of the likes of the "M Division," Mercedes-Benz AMG, and the likes. In fact, the CTS-V was created to compete in the luxury high-performance market against the BMW M3/M5, thus giving the American crowd an all-American option compared to the Europeans available at that time. While the CTS-V ended production in 2019, it is still a highly sought-after car, as with this 2012 Cadillac CTS-V Coupe, with only 19,000 miles on the odometer and has a few aftermarket upgrades.
Cadillac is considered the luxury arm of General Motors, and for good reason. This American brand is renowned for making land yachts to eat up the endless highways sprawling throughout the states. The Cadillac CTS-V sedan was born with the introduction of the high-performance V-Series sub-brand in 2004, which was an attempt to create a luxury sports sedan to compete with the BMW M5 and the C63 AMG. This makes the year 2019 its 15th anniversary, and Cadillac released the Pedestal Edition, which is limited to 300 units. This gorgeous example of the 2019 Cadillac CTS-V Pedestal Edition holds only 24,900 miles on the odometer and is available for sale in Florida.
The term "wolf in sheep's clothing" is reserved for a subtle machine on the outside but a demon waiting to let loose on the inside. Present today is the true definition of a wolf in sheep's clothing and looks like this 2012 Cadillac CTS V Coupe. This subtle performance powerhouse has a reported 57,000 miles on the clock and is a firecracker in disguise.

Cadillac is considered one of the first automotive brands in the world. Founded in 1902 by the founder of Motor City – Detroit, Antoine de la Mothe, Cadillac, whose coat of arms is used as the brand's crest. From its inception, Cadillac's main focus has been on luxury builds, and this continued when General Motors took over the brand in 1909. One of Cadillac's memorable models is the Cadillac Fleetwood, which has its roots all the way back to 1916; while the Fleetwood is currently discontinued, it is still a much sought-after vehicle. The Fleetwood's status as a premier luxury vehicle made it aptly suitable for a myriad of uses. Take this 1988 Cadillac Fleetwood that has undergone a custom funeral car conversion custom built by The S & S Coach Company to give loved ones a last ride in luxury. The conversion has been done with excellent workmanship and is host to the original engine with 75,000 miles on the odometer.
Cadillac is a brand with a rich history dating back to the early 1900s. It cemented its reputation as a luxury carmaker in the United States of America by catering to the auto needs of the rich and famous. Nevertheless, Cadillacs weren’t a one-trick pony. They made sure that their cars had the grunt to match their weight. Cadillac was considered “the standard of the world” after they introduced the V8, V12, and V16 engines in the early 1930s. This heritage has been carried through to the new century when Cadillac introduced its CT line, which is considered a luxury executive saloon. For those executives who were looking for a speed thrill, they came up with the CT5-V Blackwing, the fastest Cadillac ever made. This stunning example is a 2022 model year CT5-V Blackwing with just 4,000 miles on the clock.
