2005 Cadillac CTS-V Test Drive
We first took this CTS-V out to check the power and how it handled. This car has great power. It doesn’t matter what gear you are in it has power. The braking is great we were hard on them for awhile and never felt ANY brake fade. The car we tested had Bridgestone Potenza’s on it and they gripped very well. The shifter felt some what messy. I would change this ASAP. Also when under hard Acceleration this car wheel hops BAD. I think they could have done something about this from the factory but there has to be a fix for it. Overall this Cadillac is loaded inside with everything from leather/suede, navigation, DVD player, great Bose Stereo System, heated seats etc. So if you are looking for comfort, power and handling this is a great car. You can pick one up now for about 20,000 to 25,000. This Cadillac CTS-V gets a overall score of 7 out of 10.
Here are some Factory Specs.
