The Cadillac CTS-V when it came fully redesigned in 2009 was extolled by enthusiasts for its spine-tingling acceleration, engaging handling, and reasonable pricing. It produced 500+ horses in stock condition and catapulted to 60 mph in just around 4.3 seconds. However, this particular 2009 Cadillac CTS-V is a different beast with a myriad of cosmetic, functional, and performance enhancements. It looks menacing and is reported to produce 800+ horses, thanks to the upgraded components. With 32,000 miles on the odo, this CTS-V is a beast that should be cherished by the right owner. If you hanker a spacious sedan that can send chills down your spine every single time you venture out in it, this monstrous creation would be the perfect fit.

Exterior and Interior

The 2009 Cadillac CTS-V in its stock condition itself is a distinctively attractive sedan. This particular car, however, has been heavily modified to visually complement its superior underpinnings. The car, finished in Raven Black, has been given a Stage 6 paint correction and accented by blacked out badging to complete the murdered out look. The exterior has been augmented with custom headlights with demon eyes and custom-painted upper & lower grills from Big Tundra Enterprises. The stock 19-inch aluminum 10-spoke alloys and exhaust tips have been powder-coated in black. Other cosmetic additions include carbon fiber vents and license plate holders that accent the stealthy, blacked-out appeal of the car. The interior remains mostly stock. Even so, the 2009 CTS-V is a well-equipped machine, flaunting heated, 10-way adjustable leather-shrouded front bucket seats and premium interior elements. Other significant interior features include dual-zone automatic climate control and a 10-speaker Bose 5.1 surround sound system.

Engine

The blazing heart of the matter is the upgraded motor of this 2009 Cadillac CTS-V. Under the hood, it gets a 6.2-liter supercharged V8, which outputs 556 horsepower in its stock form. This CTS-V however, is far from stock. It has been heavily upgraded with components including a 5.3 hotrod camshaft with 660-inch Lift LS dual valve spring kit and titanium retainers from Brian Tooley Racing. This setup has been coupled with upgraded push rods from Mighty Mouse and an LS3 timing chain dampener. The supercharger has been upgraded with a CNC-ported LT4 supercharger & snout kit from Kong Performance. The wiring kit has also been upgraded with extreme wire sets from ACCEL. The current owner reports a slew of new mods including a GM reinforced intercooler brick by Dedicated Motorsports, a new Vadder Performance heat exchanger belt, and new 127lb FIC Bosch injectors and auxiliary pump by DSX Tuning. The car is also tuned for E-85 fuel, equipped with a new 5-inch air intake with a Green filter and a Speed Engineering X-pipe exhaust setup. With all of these enhancements, the current owner reports a whopping output of 844 horsepower. As evident from the specs, this 2009 CTS-V isn’t a regular machine. It is a ferocious beast, waiting to be savored by a speed-seeking enthusiast.
