Nice, talk about finding a unicorn.
I would think finding a manual CTS almost as hard. |

I didn't realize they even made manual trans Caddys. Is that the same trans as the Corvette or SS Camaros?

My neighbor has that in an auto, and it's pretty peppy. Nice find with the manual transmission!

Nice car. A friend has one. Same color although his is AT. It's like riding on a cloud with a Vette in the trunk.

Man, I love the CTS. The best car we've ever owned was an '05 CTS...had 140k on it when the transmission died and we traded it in. If I'd had my way, we'd have rebuilt the tranny and would still be driving it, but the wife had new car fever. The new Malibu she chose was loaded- and not half the car the CTS was, imho, but she has to drive it not me.
We've been considering buying another, but the wife doesn't know if she wants another CTS or the SUV version, the SRX...Looked at an '11 CTS with 60k on it yesterday and may be able to make a deal on it. The manual versions are rare as hen's teeth here, unless you find the CTS-V. If I ever find one in my price range, the 'vette will go away in favor of it.. |

Yup. Love my '11 perf coupe with 33k. Mileage sucks balls, but it handles great and rides awesome. If you want to add the driving lights, Rockauto has everything you need. They use the same H11bulb as the headlights and are bright as shit. Really light up the road down low. Shagster and I wired the relay to the parking lights.
