Ordered my New CTS Coupe!

**Mr. Hyde** · 01-28-2011, 12:19 PM

While not a CTS-V, I did just place my order for a Thunder Gray Premium CTS Coupe with a manual 6 speed.
It should be built during the week of Feb. 21-27.
Very excited to be buying a new Caddie!

Congrats! Sounds like it is going to be a blast with the 6 speed. What are they pushing for hp/tq in that trim these days?

**Mr. Hyde** · 01-28-2011, 02:32 PM

The V6 is only good for 304HP and about 276TQ, but it's not power I'm after.
The interior is light years ahead of the C6Z.

Nice choice. I think you're really gonna enjoy that car!

Only? That is way impressive for 6 slugs. Is it the same engine configuration as the V6 5th gens?

I'm not as up on the car as I should be, but I do know it's the 3.6 liter. There is also a 3.0 available with the CTS Sedan, but in the Coupe, they are only offering the higher output 3.6

YES

I tried to order a CTS-V but my creditors felt I wasn't financially sound enough to make the purchase.
So now I'm selling my Mustang on Ebay...LOL

You'll get yours soon enough, then you'll have your license in jeopardy everytime you get behind the wheel!

Thanks...I've found that people either love em or hate em. I just found out today that my car is Code 3000. I guess that means that it's almost ready to roll down the assembly line.

I prefered the Sedan over the Coupe's, till i saw one in person.

Hello, I have a 2004 3.6 cts. Works awesome, never had a problem with it. I am not too sure about the back end of the new coupes tho, might grow on me.
