Meet the unicorn of modern muscle wagons: a low-mile,
manual-transmission CTS-V finished in Thunder Gray ChromaFlair over
Ebony leather/microsuede Recaro seats. With only ~7k original
miles, this V-Wagon pairs Cadillac luxury with supercharged punch
and rare enthusiast specs-Tremec TR-6060 6-speed, Magnetic Ride
Control, Brembo brakes, and the 556 hp LSA under the hood. It
presents beautifully throughout and carries a clean California
title. Freshly California Smog passed (July 2025).
Exterior
Factory Thunder Gray ChromaFlair paint highlights sharp body lines
with a subtle color-flip metallic in direct light.
CTS-V specific fascias with mesh grilles, deeper front air dam, and
polished dual exhaust.
Panoramic sunroof, adaptive HID headlamps, LED tails, rear spoiler,
and rear wiper.
19" Satin Graphite Y-spoke wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport
tires; behind them sit yellow V-branded Brembo calipers that
telegraph the intent.
Panels show straight gaps and a deep gloss consistent with the low
mileage.
Interior
Ebony leather & microsuede Recaro sport buckets (heated &
ventilated, multi-way power with adjustable bolsters) deliver
long-trip comfort and track-day grip.
Microsuede-wrapped steering wheel and shifter, black upper dash,
and contrasting stitching add a purposeful, premium feel.
Tech and conveniences include navigation, Bose premium audio,
dual-zone automatic climate control, keyless access with
push-button start, cruise control, rear camera with parking
sensors, and OnStar-ready hardware.
Cabin, touch points, and switchgear present cleanly-exactly what
you expect from a 7k-mile car.
Powertrain & Chassis
Supercharged 6.2L LSA V8 - factory rated at 556 hp / 551 lb-ft.
Smooth idle, strong boost, and the signature CTS-V soundtrack under
throttle.
Tremec TR-6060 6-speed manual sends power to a limited-slip
differential-the most sought-after configuration for CTS-V
wagons.
Magnetic Ride Control adaptive dampers balance daily usability with
remarkable body control.
The underbody, suspension hardware, and exhaust appear tidy and
well-kept (see underside photos).
History, Mileage & Documentation
Odometer shows ~7,0xx miles.
CARFAX: no accidents or damage reported; 8 service history records;
prior lease/personal ownership history; last reported mileage
6,517; California registration.
Passed California Smog in July 2025.
Offered with manufacturer's literature and spare parts (see trunk

Why We Like It
Manual V-Wagons were built in tiny numbers and have become
blue-chip modern collectibles. This one checks every box-color,
Recaros, manual, Mag Ride, Brembos, low miles, and clean California
pedigree. It's equal parts family hauler, canyon carver, and future
classic.
