I've been looking for a daily driver for a while on and off. I was thinking of a used Porsche for the fun-factor, but as a DD grocery getter, it wont do. After riding in a new Escalade with all the bells and whistles, It started growing on me, but I don't want a SUV, and I need a tad more get-up-and-went. So, that brings me to the 06 CTS-V, anyone have any opinions on them? (I would consider buying a used one in a year or two, not new, so msrp shouldnt be a factor.)

local f-body guy has one and it's a fun drive.
very confy/quite and has the hoomph when needed.
It's not a cheap car when new, but since you are looking for a 2 yr old one, if you are able to find one in good shape, i'd say go for it.
only problems I heard from them was the fact of some rear-ends failing on them... and there is a bulletin on them for putting the 2006 diff that is beafier.
Apart from that, there was another bulletin on wheel-hop under hard acceleration and not so nice roads, something that GM has addressed.
great car.
I'd love to have a beater like that.
btw, my friend is actually thinking on selling it since he has already 3 cars and wants to get a Vette... something to consider... PM me if you want his email.
