New ride for Trainman

Hopefully this works. I included pictures of my truck so you could see it looks stock in street trim (mirrors and interior) and not all stripped down. Also a group shot with my son's 650i.....all the red cars.

My son just got the 2012 650i coupe last month, it was the only year (in the current body style) that was made with the twin turbo V-8 and 6-speed manual. I did a search on Autotrader for him, the entire US for a 6-speed and this was the only 1, and it was 100 miles away in Alhambra, Ca. He got lucky. I think my (future) Grandson-in-law is buying the GTO in 3 weeks, otherwise it will be for sale ($18,000, LS2, 400hp, 400 ftlbs, 6-speed, completely stock except the wheels, and 52,500 miles).
 
The other CTS-V coupe in Red that I was working on is at Suttle Cadillac in Newport News , VA. It is a 2012 with 212 miles, never titled, but was a GM showcar at Disneyworld, so it has an "In Service Date" of 9-1-2011. The window sticker is $72,205, same options as mine , but it also has Polished wheels. They will sell it for $56,600!
 
Congrats, was it hard to find a stick? All the ones I've seen around here have been auto

The 6-speeds are a lot rarer than the Automatics, thats for sure, but they are around. Most dealers don't order them for normal stock, most I would suspect are special order,.....most old Grampas don't want to shift....after all it is a Cadillac.
 
Great choice! We apparently have very similar taste in cars. I had an 04 GTO prior to my first 10, and well we both have SRT-10s! :D
