I have the same exact vehicle, 12’ ctsv coupe in thunder grey chromaflair. It’s a head turner, everywhere I go. Sexy and aggressive body lines loaded with one of the best LS engines ever built

I love my 2014 CTS-V I've finally got to be able to afford to get one. I've had my CTS-V for 5 months now....Stupid fast car! I drove my car from Florida to New Orleans and back! Cruising at a 90 miles an hour I punched.. it a couple of times Hit 150 like it was nothing.. the car took off like a bad outta hell... Cannot wait to make upgrades to see what it can do. Very happy with my dream car.

Got a 12' CTS V coupe in black diamond tricot, manual shift (yep it's a unicorn!), Ricardo seats, yellow calipers, corsa cat back exhaust, cold air intake...it's SO fast and sounds amazing. different than a C6 Vette, which I also have and love. When I first saw this car back in 2011 in mall parking lot, I fell in love with the rear end...so sexy looking. I looked the car up on Google only to see it was $77K, but finally bought my '12 5 yrs ago with only 9K miles for a good price. The price will only go up on these cars. You got to drive one to believe how amazing it is!

As fast as it drives in a straight line, I love how it handles corners and windy roads. I always take mine up to the mountain roads where I live, and it just stays planted and handles every corner with no problem. It doesn't feel heavy when driving, either. Best car I ever had.

I have a 2011 CTS-V sedan I love it. I have owned a 1988 Z51 Corvette and a 1991 ZR-1 Corvette. I loved them all, but love the V the most. I may get a C8 Z06 but I will keep my V. Thanks for the video!

Damm I glad I found this channel got all the cars I need in my dream garage

Great video, thank you Exhaust Sports Auto!! Personally I love the car inside and out!! The exterior styling is awesome and the interior styling with the dark real wood trim is nice!!! The good thing about fake wood trim is that it doesn't crack though!!😢

Interesting how it is better than the Corvette. I think these Cadillac coupes kinda fly under the radar. I like what they did with that brake light spoiler.

I haven't even finished the video yet and it already got a like. 💛 I really love this video so far and I always liked the way this car looks, it's so cool. Thanks for doing it, I personally think it looks at least a little better than the Corvette

I wish we got these cars in Australia.

I have a 3.6 V6 CTS Coupe. It’s been a decent car for almost a decade now but I’m debating on upgrading to this lol

Dude, you actually made a wicked video about this car. I have a Hennessey v650 coupe, and theres so many details people dont know about, and they legit quit doin such a sexy body coupe becuase who'd want a corvette vs this beauty

Dude, this is an amazing car ! And your comparison to the C6 Z06 is spot on and I’m really re-thinking my “retirement” car purchase. For the last year ive been reviewing everything C6 & C7 Corvette related and until NOW after watching your review and ironically That dude Bill from Auto Europa Naples who posted his review today on a 2013 black CTS-V with an extra 80 hp. WOW 😳 this might be my car to go for... more refinement than a C6 Z06 .. I love the exterior of this Coupe, amazing lines and the interior with those Ricaro type seats is amazing. Great to see that the quality after nearly 80k miles is excellent... Ill see what options are out there when the time is right for me, but looks like a CTS-V gets the nod !!

Another review of a car I freaking love! Was a dream car of my wife and I when it first came out.

Thanks for the review. I think this is my next car. Looking at some manuals. Price isn't that bad and seems to be a lot more reliable than the M3.

I love my 14 coupe! Sounds even better with AR headers, cat delete, 3" pipes and Corsa Sport mufflers. Power and luxury. That 551 HP is flywheel but with a few bolt on mods, like mine has, you can easily get that at the wheels. Mine just dyno'd at 540 WHP. The only complaint... the infotainment system is crap, especially when using it with a phone. Oh and the rear end will come out but it is all in the tires. Put some real soft, sticky tires on it and it stick really well.

That Alcantara steering wheel and shifter both need some care and restoration to bring them back to life. This is an easy job. The Recaro seats are fantastic. I can see this one has some mods and appears to have had a little rough life. The trim and window issues are more specific to this particular car. Nice review!

Hey Kevin, too bad it wasn’t a manual transmission! Ive seen a few of those and they look so sleek and FAST ! Great review

Although you did a great review, I’m surprised you reviewed a ragged out V. That V was obviously not taken care of too well

Quick correction for that intro: *Please raise volume* ; )

I have a 2018 sedan, and my only disappointment is that it doesn't have a clutch. Before that, I owned the 05 CTS V and loved it. Thee coupe is a nice-looking ride

Way better looking than a Vette with the same power :)

Although this car isn't my cup of tea, I gotta shout out to Cary Imports for these review samples it's really good of them, and they seriously deserve some business!

I LOVE my Sedan.... The under the radar Beast. Nice Review!

This is on of my Fav ever i love this Version from 2011

Nothing like a funeral going on when you're in a Cadillac that's 556 Horsepower Supercharged

Ok this coming from a tarnished Cadillac owner for 35 years and the last two certified NYS lemons. However from what I read this vehicles engine is hand built so this HAS the edge in quality over their other cars . The V is the only way to enter a Cadillac dealer . My heart is with them and it WAS sad I had to leave. For the record the CUE system ( not in this car) installed is so flawed . The top technicians couldn’t figure out how the Radio volume would go full blast when I put the heated seat on. The car had to be restarted . Try that on the HIGHWAY .

I've got one 2012 Radiant silver, black rims yellow calipers, Recaro safran/black 6 speed manual with 16000 miles. It's a euro version with cristal tail lights.

I wasn't crazy about these when they came out even with all the performance. The look really is subjective. I was in love with the wagon though. I'd take the Vetter or ZL1 over this.

Damn!! Cadillac's new design style is awesome.

I have a 13 V coupe. The factory All Season tires are the weakest part of this car in regards to handling.

What an awesome vehicle...

It really is awesome to say that Ferrari asked for our technology that's a major achievement

I been trying to decide between one of these or the c6zo6. The ls7 valve issues worry me tho

Have liked the look of Cadillacs since the 1980s, a big fan of the CTS-V, wished for years Cadillac would export to Australia, anyway, awesome review, if you can get hold of some more modern versions, I would enjoy to watch the reviews, an Australian fan from your Kia Stinger days, I still own a Deep Chroma Blue Stinger GT here in Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺.

One thing this proves, it may not be perfect but Cadillac is trying!

The auto 2011 cts v coupe vs a 10 speed auto 5.0 mustang or a 2021 Supra gr 3.0 would be a good ass roll race

I couldn’t help but notice (bc mine is the same) one exhaust tip is lower than the other 🤣

I will ask how many owners and how many were not women? You mentioned the interior condition. Maybe the Recaro Pleather or what ever it may be. Mine a 2013 Premium had and is better cared for. I am second owner. I listen to the shifting times and it is a lot like my own, I have the 3.6L. The only down fall of mine. She still is a great daily.

You didn’t even put it on sport mode bro 😎

Beautiful car

From quiet little hybrid, to neighborhood-waking V8s. Yes sir. Two ugly cars in a row though huh? I don't think I watched the Sonata yet but other reviews made sure to pay attention to that ugly chrome bar across the front. Definitely worse looking than the gas one. I've finally found somebody around my age who likes this style of Cadillac... I've never been a fan- much bigger of a fan since the new styles have come up. Less... Space ship. Leave that to Lexus, the greatest

Absolutely beautiful lines, sexy doesn't begin to describe how the car looks. Christ, I just wish it had the reliability of a Lexus because I would purchase this Cadillac over any other vehicle in a heart beat and twice on Sunday, Ravi Peiris M.D.

Those Scorpion tires are crap--Michelin Pilot Sport 4S should be on all four corners, at the very least.

I have a corvette and they’re different cars. Corvette is pretty much a race car.. this one is not. i do agree this is a refined version. If i do want something low key and better interior this would be it.

I would look over a vette to see one on the street, not anything against Vettes just far more common.

ONe of My dreams

2011 amc javelin, only better

This generation of CTS-V has hydraulic steering.

Interesting review (as usual), thanx! This has the most interesting GM design so far (en vogue since one of the Terminator movie I believe). Looks like it's been chopped with an axe by a classy lumberjack.

What mufflers are those

I just bought a 2011 cts v coupe 😁

Sedan is much better and nicer in my opinion. Especially 6spd

NC state Pride!!!

I WANT ONE 💪🏾💪🏾❗❗❗

The dude in the Mini Cooper never had a chance 😄👌💨... At 6:30...

3,9 seconds???

I want one of these so bad I own a 370Z that's in storage right now that I plan to build up someday I want to build the fastest 370Z the world's ever seen all in due time but in the meantime I want one of these once I get one I'm never selling it just like my 370 I only buy cars that I know are going to be iconic and that you don't see driving down the road every 5 minutes like Challengers Camaros Chargers and Mustangs I work for Ford the Mustangs are beautiful car but you see too many of them I like to stand out

That's quiet an intro.

My second car was a 1990 Cadillac Eldorado be a Ritz that an old lady owned in garage most the time the interior was impeccable I bought this car and 2003 it was a 1990 Eldorado beaverettes and this lady was so kind to this car she even wore leather gloves when she drove it to the grocery store so there was no where on the steering wheel or the shifter it's what made me fall in love with Cadillacs it may have been the smallest Eldorado production year but it was beautiful and it was a beer Ritz and all the kids that drove BMWs at my richest preppy High School we're looking at my 1990 Cadillac Eldorado be a Ritz and shock that day out in the parking lot and at first me being a car guy when I walked out in the parking lot I'm like why are all these f****** standing around my car they're too close to it so I walked up to them all Macho like because I'm a pretty big guy for five four I'm stocky and I thought they were f****** with my car so I asked him I'm like what are you guys doing in the stern voice they're like we're just checking out your car I thought it was so cool that a bunch of BMW guys for looking at my 1990 Cadillac Eldorado little history lesson did you know that Eldorado stands for the golden one in Spanish another little history of lesson did you know that BMW originally started off making airplanes and that the emblem on the BMW is supposed to represent a spinning airplane propeller

lol that fukn exhaust note

Hot car
