Ah, my GM vs Chrysler nemesis. Hot car man!

 

Ive got the same car. Im blacking out as well. where did you get the srt emblem for the grill?
What spring did you go with?
Looks great!

 

Nice slushbox, wanna race? lol.

Check out my 4 door V's pics posted in this section. Our cars would make for a nice competitior hemi vs lsx photoshoot.

 

you try and sell them. The resale is horrific. Theres a reason for that. Reliability and shop cost.
I had an Escalade. Always in the shop at $125.00 per hr. traction control light stayed on. $1500 later......still on. 2 broken window motors, and on and on.
I had an STS. Always in the shop. Fuel pump. starter on a northstar $800.00. on and on.
I do like the XLR-V. Just scared of the cost involved.

 

glad I dont have a cadillac powertrain.....

and I dont buy a car thinking about the resale....this isnt an investment....its a cost that should be minimized to your personal preference.

but i hear ya, loud and clear.

The V is the worst and best car Ive ever owned for a variety of reasons. Whens shes working properly, I have never felt so excited behind the wheel of a car...and Ive driven some damn nice vehicles...lambos, ferraris, maseratis, porsches etc etc....

this one puts more of a grin on my face.

 

Actually, I bought my '05 CTS-V for $45k. Dropped about $15 in mods into it. Sold it after driving it for almost 4 years for $30k. That's not too bad on the depreciation. About 35% loss on the original price or 50% if you include full price of the mods.

The '05 Cayenne Turbo I drive now came with at least $25k in mods. Cost over $105k new. You can buy 'em for about $40k on eBay right now! That's about a 60% loss or a 70% loss including the mods. Now THAT is depreciation!

 

Are the rear calipers typically at the 4 and 8 o'clock position?

 

sweet! what are you using for wax ?

 

very clean!
