After many fun years of owning 2 Fs I have decided that I missed the 6 speed manual and wanted a little more power. I finally found what I was hunting for awhile. I am getting this 2012 CTS-V Black Diamond sedan with the 6 speed manual transmission. Car is a CPO with warranty good till 2018 so if something breaks I'm ok. Gonna still check in here cause it's the best forum and the F was my first nice car I ever owned so this forum is like my 1st car family.

Congratulations! Would love to read a post on your overall opinion/comparison between the two cars. I know they are different animals.

You're going to love that car! I've had 4 of them now, all ranging from 600whp to 1300whp and they are amazing cars.

Yea I will be just adding exhaust and intake to keep CPO warranty intact. I'm in Florida and found car in Indiana. Caddy dealer was awesome there, they are shipping car to me and picking up my F as a trade in so I get nice tax savings. Couldn't believe nobody wanted to buy my F, tried forever to sell it.

Nice. How do you get a tax savings on a trade-in? Don't they deduct the trade-in, post-tax total?

Or is this because I'm in Commifornia?

Btw, nice pick up.

On the tax savings with a trade in for Florida is u only pay 7% taxes on the difference. Caddy was $45k and they gave me $35k for my F so I pay taxes on the $10k difference. This is what I was told but I'm gonna verify it with my DMV tomorrow before officially signing the deal.

Beautiful car! I was looking at a CTS-V wagon with a manual. Loved it but out of my price range.

I was on the exact same search, but wagons in my price range was 10k more than I wanted to spend.

One day I'll own an all black CTS-V Wagon w/ 6 speed.

Should have got a wagon...

I respect the V wagons but not my style , originally wanted a V coupe but tried to get my daughter's child seat in the back and it was a nightmare.

Congrats on the nice pick up

A definitely unique pick up. I don't see too many CTS-Vs around, but when I do, the looks is so aggressive and the power capabilities on those can be highly extensive. Even in stock form, it's a great looker and a speed demon at that. Enjoy her to the fullest!
