Holder Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 So I gave I up 2000 Firehawk Trans Am (sold in less then 24hrs) and my 2007 Trailblazer SS ( sold in less than a week but still awaiting transport). Once these were 100% sold I went on the hunt for my next dream car. I decided to go all out and stretch my wallet for this one after giving up 2 of my favorites. It's a 2014 Cadillac Black Raven CTS V Sport Wagon. M6 with Recaro Seats, optional black grill and panoramic sun roof. After a long search for the perfect V with the right options we found this one in Maryland. i signed all the papers and we're waiting for transport. I can't wait to get it home and give here the full treatment. Here are some dealer photo's.

Team Adam's Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I think you did well on the deal! A vehicle that still offers the utility of the TBSS, but will run circles around the Firehawk?!? Sounds like a no-brainer to me! Holder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtnbiker326 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I bet you still miss the Firehawk though. That is such a fun car. Great choice as a replacement though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holder Posted April 29, 2014 Author Share Posted April 29, 2014 I bet you still miss the Firehawk though. That is such a fun car. Great choice as a replacement though. Thanks, the Firehawk was very special and hard to give up. I took pictures of that exact car in 2001 at Daytona while it was in the Pontiac booth. 11 years later I ended up buying that exact car, after doing a little research and help from SLP.

Marylander Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 ugh, so jealous... I love those wagons. in a few years they're going to be quite rare/collectable, too, I think -- more so than the cars you sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is dedication my friend. Well done. I am glad to see that even in spite of that, you are still going to enjoy the power of that wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 NICE! I have just a CTS coupe and love it. Got it because it was all wheel drive. Rear wheel only won't cut it in my neck of the woods. But I sure would have opted for a V if I had a choice. Very nice ride. Congrats! Holder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Periodic Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Ugh so jealous, my wife and I are currently shopping for a used 3.6 AWD CTS Wagon. That V is so sexy, would love to get in one, but the wallet is too thin for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PacificNWBuckeye Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 I scared one of those on the highway in my Crown Vic, rolled down the window to show I wasn't an officer and he took off like I was in reverse. I love those wagons! Redbeard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b_pappy Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Thanks. Have her go drive one, that might change her mind. We were down at the dealer and everything, both drove it. She's not quite as addicted to horsepower as her husband. I think she likes her TBSS being paid off too. Anyhow, congrats on yours. Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redbeard Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Very nice! Now your kids will never be late to anything! I can only imagine how hard it is to find a CTS-V wagon with the M6. You can probably count on your fingers how many they made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Slow Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I'm as green as the Hulk with envy. Congratulations on the perfect wagon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
