The 2011 CTS V-coupe is equipped with an immense 556 HP at 6100 rpm and 551 lb feet of torque at 3800 rpm. The engine is a super strong 6.l Liter V8 LSA engine and is available in both manual and automatic transmissions. In order to provide a balance against so much power, Cadillac has installed super strong Bremo brakes. The coupe comes with a magnetic ride control suspension and you can also purchase Remco racing seats to fit the car at an additional price. Thanks to this incredible powertrain, this car will be able to be on the same playing field with other high end sports coupes such as the world renowned BMW M3. The CTS V-coupe is truly a high performance car; this car travels from 0-60mph in 4.2 seconds, so incredibly fast! And on top of that it finishes a quarter mile in just 12.2 seconds. Accelerating is super fast in this car, merging onto the freeway is a breeze!

The engine does serious duty and is bold and ferocious as the car's stance. Nineteen inch performance wheels complete the whole look. The Magnetic Ride suspension helps to adjust shock pressure on the road. There are two modes for the suspension; Sport and Tour. The Sport mode is more suitable for a sporty drive whereas Tour is perfect for an easy and smooth drive around town.

There are a few minor exterior changes for the V edition bit the gist remains the same; the V edition has a sharper grille, different lights and a bigger hood. The interior is pretty much exactly the same. The vehicle also comes equipped with a navigation system, an incredible Bose audio system and Bluetooth compatibility. This is a car that can be suited for every driver due to the adjustable seats and telescopic steering wheel. Listening to your favorite artists is a breeze due to the music hard drive.

This car is equipped with the latest safety advances including an air bag system, an On Star Communications System, parking assist, remote keyless entry, an alarm system, four wheel ABS and four wheel disc brakes.

A good looking car is just not sufficient anymore, car fans want a coupe that can go fast, hard and accelerate like a dream. Cadillac has proven that it can design a beautiful car that can play on the same field as BMW and Mercedes sport coupes. Fuel economy isn't too great with this car but this car was not mean to be a gas saver. It's meant for the car enthusiast, for the frugal shopper. At 62k it may be a bit steep but when you consider how fast this car goes and how it's completely different looking from anything else on the road, it really isn't so bad. Finally there's an American sports coupe that can run with the Germans.

Car audio has been a hot topic in electronics for a while now. Learning a little more will allow you to get what you need to replace your factory system.

Some vehicles may have 6 speakers or more. In most cases, you'll only find a total of four. Two speakers may be in the front doors and the other two could be found on the rear deck, or rear doors.

You'll then need to make a decision on whether or not you want 2-way, 3-way or components speakers. Component speakers have separate tweeters.

If you're looking for the ultimate sound, go with component speakers. You be able to position the tweeter directly towards your ears.

Do you want your speakers just to be loud upfront, or both front and rear? If you want all of your speakers to be loud, buy a 4 channel amplifier and power all of them.

Remember, if you usually drive by yourself or only have one passenger in front, a 2 channel amp for the front speakers will be fine. The rear speakers can run off the CD player.

Everyone wants bass and true bass will only come from subwoofers. You need to buy at least one decent subwoofer to gain bass levels in your vehicle.

If you want a lot of bass, you should buy two 10" or 12" subs. Or, one 15" subwoofer that can handle 3-4 hundred watts or so.

No matter what subs you get, they will need an amplifier. If your sub handles 300 watts RMS, make sure to team it up with an amplifier that can deliver it, without going over.

A 2 channel amp is a lot less expensive and can still really pack a punch. You can also bridge a 2 channel amplifier into single channel operation mode and generally create more watts than the two separate channels combined.

It's always a good idea to upgrade your CD player. Your new CD player may add a front panel 3.5mm connection. This will allow you to plug and play your iPod or MP3 player.

Once you feel like you're ready, purchasing cheap car CD players won't take too long at all. Save big on cheap car audio after you decided if you want a better system.
