I test drove a CTSV

DCNISMO · 12-03-2012, 05:17 PM

I just brought it home this evening. It's a monster but very smooth and quiet. Dynamatt not needed. I'll post pics later. I paid 44k for it and bought a warranty from GM. I got 29k on the Nismo for trade. So I'm happy.

Hate to tell you this , but looking at the deal you made, it seems you may have over paid.

Wholesale price on your 2011 Z $26,500 and $29,000 trade in and the CTS-V is $31,500 wholesale and $36,500 trade in. So a better deal would have been your Z and $7000 -$7500.
When buying a used car you should never pay more than $1000 more than trade in price, because in most cases dealers never pay more than wholesale for a car, they took in trade.

If you can get that kind of deal, I'll take two.
