The red Brembo calipers are a nice touch, as are the stock graphite forged 19" CTS-V wheels. It took a long time to find a Cali 2014 CTS-V Wagon, it was the last year they were made, and super hard to find. I found this one at a Mercedes Dealership. They reattached the front drivers lip where I bought it, but I'm going to replace the drivers side front lower lip this week.

Now that I'm retired, my DD duties include carrying SUP surfboards (which easily fit inside the CTS-V), and shleping around mountain bikes, etc. I put factory Caddie roof racks on the V, so it's ready for anything I can throw at it

It is stupid fast! I've surprised more than a few unsuspecting red light racers, who think it's just a regular stupid Caddie wagon with aftermarket wheels and painted calipers!
I've read a review that the 2014 CTS-V's had a slight bump in HP, guesstimated to be around 580HP. Unconfirmed by Cadillac of course. Whatever, it doesn't really matter. I'll probably change the supercharger pulley at some point, that's good for higher boast, and more HP. Not that this wagon needs it!

I think the head light and tail lights in the caddie might need a bit of getting use to, enjoy the Porsche cheers.

Personally, I've always liked the look of this V wagon. I know some people don't like the Caddie look, I can understand why, it is a very unique look.

the red calipers is what i was going to do the F, but i put it on hold. might get it done now that i see the contrast on a dark gray vehicle. I'm going to try and match my lug nut color to the calipers and maybe Plasti dip wheels(not sure of color). you can pick me up to go mouton biking , then when my Lightning is back on the road, i'll pick you up.
