The 2009 Cadillac CTS-V One Bad Mother U Know What!
Cadillac has come up with a recipe for success with the new 2009 CTS-V. Take Grandpa’s nice Luxury Sedan, mix in some bling bling rims, and add Corvette Firepower! What do you get? The fastest factory sedan in history. Oh yes! Chew on that Mercedes and BMW. The head hanchos over at Cadillac decided that while their stocks may be falling; their cool factor could use a boost. Enter the new CTS-V.
With over 550 horsepower hitting the ground through Corvettes’ Tremec Six-Speed short shifting transmission, this monster can rocket to 60 mph in 4 seconds. Also borrowed from the Corvette is the same LSA V-8 engine, crazy magnetic shocks, and huge Brembo brakes. This Cadillac also come with some sticky Michelin tires and sweet recaro seats to hold the driver in place. The CTS-V is the fastest car Cadillac has ever produced and the fastest sedan in the world; beating out the BMW M5 and Mercedes E63 AMG. Both of these cars cost over $20k more! Priced at $60k, the 2009 Cadillac CTS-V offers Ferrari speed and Bentley luxury at half the price.

Bling is a girl’s best friend… and this Cadillac seems like a worthy charriot! Not a Ferrari girl (too squished- not comfy at all) and Bentleys are so fuddy-duddy, you know? Cads have that understated “I-could-drive-a-Bentley-but-they’re-a-pain-to-park” cache (accent egu- how do you add that online???). Plus, I’ve had it with other countries beating us in cool design although I forgive the Brits & the Italians- at least they haven’t chunkified all their lines yet like Mercedes has. Plus, Italy has the Riviera: That’s where this Caddy is meant to ride! (OK, up the PCH, San Diego to Monterey will do too).
