The Cadillac CTS-V has long been a unique expression of American performance. Combining American muscle V8 power with a sophisticated and elegant luxury sedan made it a unique approach to performance, competing with European performance luxury models with a distinctly muscle car approach. However, what was even more unique than the CTS-V sedan was the CTS-V wagon, which, in the car’s second generation, offered drivers a luxury performance wagon with a V8 engine under the hood, and even a manual transmission if the owner chose that.
Today, any Cadillac CTS-V Wagon with a 6-speed manual transmission is a collector-worthy masterpiece and a unique statement of American performance, and despite examples being just over a decade old, the manual CTS-V Wagon is already well on its way towards becoming a classic. Listed now on duPont REGISTRY Live, the new luxury online auction platform that is changing the landscape for enthusiasts with a 14-day return policy and a 100% sell-through rate, is not just any 2013 Cadillac CTS-V Wagon, and not even any example with a 6-speed manual.
With a Glacier Blue Metallic exterior color, along with a Light Titanium leather and suede interior, this example is reportedly one of just 15 cars like it. Originally delivered in Ontario, Canada, it was imported into the United States in 2024. Its 6.2-liter LSA V8 engine is shared with the contemporary Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, with 556 horsepower, and a 0-60 time of approximately 3.9 seconds after sending that power to the rear wheels. With a top speed of 190 mph, the CTS-V Wagon is still one of the fastest station wagons to ever be conceived.
