Hey guys, I'm eye'ing a V3 CTS-V and the Cadillac dealer has made me a pretty good trade-in offer, but with the list of mods the car has, I'd rather let it go to a forum member. Asking $19,250 OBO (do not hesitate to send me an offer). Car has a valid CA emissions certificate in hand (stock exhaust reinstalled). Clean and clear California title in my name (no back fees or lien).
I bought this car bone stock in Feb of 2014 with the intentions of making it primarily a street, secondarily an HPDE car. Life has a way of altering plans, and I never made it to the track with the new motor/ trans/ diff. Front to back, only the best parts have been used. The car itself has 79,xxx miles. The motor, trans, and diff have ~8,000 miles. I would rate the exterior as a 7/10 and the interior as an 8/10. It is a nice driver that would also make a great foundation for a Corvette Challenge/ track car. Tuned by Cunningham Motorsports and made 471/442 on his Mustang Dyno (with longtube headers and Fast intake. Car drives fantastically will need to be retuned for optimum power if you intend to run the stock manifolds and hpipe). Ice cold a/c. Car was inspected at A&A Corvette for a buyer's who's financing fell through, and has a clean bill of health.

I would be very interested in buying your car if you were closer to NC. I wish you the best in recovery from surgery, and hope you sell it soon!
Thank you! I would not wish jaw surgery on anyone, but then again...no surgery is fun.

Thanks! Best part of the state IMO.
As an update, car has a current and valid CA emissions certificate. The stock manifolds and hpipe were reinstalled. If it can pass emissions in CA, then it would pass anywhere.

I have seen the car in person. It's a very nice build. Being in the automotive hobby for 20+yrs, I've never met anyone that puts more attention to detail into their builds than Chris.
TTT for you man, best of luck with the sale. That's a hell of a lot of car for the price.
