Default New CTS-V Owner

Hello all - I recently picked up a car I have wanted for several years now, a 2005 Cadillac CTS-V. While I am new to the CTS-V community this is the 3rd LS-powered car I have owned - the best being this cool piece of machinery - a 2002 Pontiac Trans-Am WS6 - full bolt on car with a cam.

The Caddy I picked up is very clean and has a few mods that I have noted so far: muffler delete, K&N Filter, aftermarket shifter. I am not sure what brand the shifter is but will figure that out. I am looking forward to learning more about this car. Here are a few crappy pics:

I picked this car up in Fremont, OH - if anyone knows who may have owned it before let me know. I am assuming he would have been active on at least a forum or two.

If your car does not already have it, a must have is the CAGS interrupter. You can find it for approx $20 and it means you can avoid being forced to shift from 1st to 4th gear. It works great and is as easy to install as long as you can get under your car.
