Default stablemate

Picked up the stablemate for my C6 Grandsport on Saturday. 2012 Caddy CTS-V. This will be my wife's daily driver. God help us all!

CTS-V's are da' poo!

My wife originally wanted one but we could never find a pre-owned one in the right combination of options and condition for her so she got a 2012 CE AT Grandsport instead to park next to mey 2011 White MT6 Grandsport.

If you look closely, you can see my POS daily driver (03 VW Jetta) in the background. That makes for the perfect tri-fecta of vehicles!
