Hey All!

I have always been a V lover, ever since they released back in the early 2000's. After getting a better job and more serious searching for the past 3 or so years, I've finally found the exact V I was looking for...

A Black Raven 2012 CTS-V Sedan, 6MT, Slick-top, Non-Recaro's and I couldn't be happier. Always wanted black on black on black and my patience has paid off.

All I have done so far was get it ceramic coated, replace coolant reservoir, and add a UPR Catch Can after pulling the lid and finding some lovely oil roasting in there... Currently saving up for the fun parts . Not planning on going too crazy, but isn't that what we all say when we first get it? Haha.


Anyways, thanks for the acceptance and hope to be well involved in the V community for a LONG time.

There is a lot of V activity in Florida. Enjoy!

Yessir! After looking at a few sunroof V's, of which all had that lovely smell and staining, I wanted no part of that.

Southeast Coast, Palm Beach County. About 3 or so hours from Tampa. Crazy enough, I have some family up there in the Weeki Wachee area, which should be right around an hour north of Tampa.

Welcome! I haven't been here long but I have received tons of help and advice from the guys here. Your car looks sweet!

Looks great and an excellent pic! I have family around that area so would it be possible for me to use the V when I visit? 😁
