CTS-V

in lsx_sarge's garage

I bought the V in April of 2016 and it was pre-owned with 40k miles on it. I’m the second owner. The V was my daily driver for about three years, until I was finally able to get a second car. The car has been to many car shows, events, and the track. The original color of the car was Crystal Red Tintcoat, but I had an opportunity to change up the color a little bit so I went with the c7/c8 dark red. Dark reds have always been my favorite and the vision I had for the car four years ago was finally realized. With only a throttle body, intake, tune and stock all season tires the ran 11.5 at 122 mph. Hoping to get it back to the track this fall.
