Sure, it's a luxury sedan, but it's a luxury sedan like no other.
Don't let this 2012 Cadillac CTS-V's stylishly dignified appearance
fool you. This car is an absolute rocket. It features a drivetrain
that's anchored by the most powerful engine Cadillac ever created
and even some of its styling cues pull double duty as performance
enhancers. It has only logged about 26,000 miles, so it's in its
absolute mechanical prime and stands ready to provide its next
lucky owner with many future miles of smile-inducing driving.
With its graceful curvature and robust stance, this powerful luxury
cruiser makes a strong impression right off the bat. This is just a
flat out great looking car. It wears very distinctive Crystal Red
Metallic paint that's in top form, showing a deep shine and a
consistently smooth finish. That aggressive front grille you see
isn't just a fashion statement - its expansive shape is designed to
create maximum airflow to the engine compartment. Special edition
fascias at both ends, as well as a tastefully contoured rear
spoiler that houses a substantial brake light, give notice that
this is no ordinary Cadillac. Everything about its appearance
suggests that this car has been well-cared for - its chrome accents
are unpitted and nicely polished, clear glass surrounds the cabin,
and both the headlights and taillights still have a showroom fresh
appearance.
The Light Titanium interior's condition matches what's on display
outside the doors. This is a very clean driving environment, with
only the very slightest of wear on the upholstery. Even the carbon
fiber accents on the door panels have their original luster. Glance
between the two plushily padded front bucket seats and you'll
notice that the low-profile shift lever on the center console looks
a bit different from what you're accustomed to seeing on a car in
this class. This Caddy is sporting a manual transmission! As you'd
expect, there are plenty of comfort and convenience features on
board, including a navigation system and backup camera that display
their findings on a sizable display at the center of the dash,
heated power seats, power windows, door locks and mirrors, and a
premium AM/FM/CD stereo with satellite connectivity and an
auxiliary port.
The distinctive shape of this Cadillac's hood is more than just an
aesthetic feature - its elevation provides the needed clearance for
the enhanced engine just below. That engine happens to be a fuel
injected 6.2-liter supercharged V8 that delivers an impressive 556
horsepower to go along with 551 pound-feet of torque - enough to
produce a 0-60 time in the low-4 second range. This elite
powerplant teams with a 6-speed Tremec manual transmission - again,
a rare feature in a sedan of any kind - to provide an exhilarating,
hands-on driving experience. That experience is further enhanced by
an independent rear suspension that equips this sedan with
outstanding agility on turns and uneven surfaces. The featured
Magnetic Ride Control continually adjusts the shocks to accommodate
road conditions, providing you with the best ride possible. If you
look closely, you can see the polished aluminum calipers of the
Brembo brakes peeking out behind this CTS-V's 19" stock chrome
wheels that are wrapped with Michelin tires.
With its elite curb appeal and otherworldly power, this 2012
Cadillac CTS-V would be the perfect match for the discriminating
driver who craves both performance and style. Call today!
