Behind the Wheel: Real V Series Stories
My ups and downs of V ownership.
Love at first launch
A few short months with my Cadillac ATS-V was all it took to spark something deeper. The aggressive styling, the sound, the drive—it was everything I ever wanted in a performance car. I didn’t know it then, but this V was just the beginning.
Valentine’s Day, Chick-fil-A… and a Missing ATS-V.

That test drive sealed the deal. The CT4-V Blackwing wasn’t just a replacement—it was a rebirth. Now I’m building this site to share that passion with other Cadillac V Series enthusiasts across every generation and model.
