Picked up a 04' CTS-V with 140k today. Came with a B&B exhaust (Installed), Eibach lowering springs, Spare driveshaft and differential, and a complete set of Btrake Motive Drilled/Slotted rotors/pads. Everything works and it runs great. Going to get it cleaned up tomorrow.

Nice score! One of these is on my list of possibilities when it comes time to put the Grand Prix out to pasture.

Thanks, I love it already. Haven't had a manual for a few years so I'm still getting used to that haha

Nice! I remember one being on the dealer floor when my parents bought the 05 2500 HD and I was sitting in it shifting it, drooling over it, lol.

Thanks everyone. I appreciate it. Spent the day washing/clay bar/waxing the car. Also got the carperts/floor mats shampooed. It started raining so I couldn't get better pictures, but nonetheless.

LoL, thats funny. Appreciate it.

Spent today cleaning up the backend. PO tinted the tails, 3rd brake, and reverse lights. Looked pretty rough so I gave it some love. Also removed the "CTS" badge from the rear end and buffed a few panels while I was at it.

Thanks!

Waiting on the rest of my LEDs for the interior to arrive then I'll grab some more pics. Also going to get the brakes and lowering springs installed when time allows. The bonneville just went down today with a fuel pump I believe. So priorities first lol

Got a few things done this weekend. Replaced my differential bushing, installed a Lingenfelter air filter, and got the rear Eibach springs and mighty mouse spacers installed (Ran out of time for the front springs). Planning on installing my front springs and stainless brake lines next weekend (Hopefully).

Thanks, I appreciate it. The tan is growing on me the more I have it. Wasn't a fan at first but I couldn't turn down the deal.
