There isn't an AWD in the CTS-V.

Possibly in the next generation. Would have been cool though. THis thing is severely traction limited. But, I like it. Easy to take a tight corner and hang the tail out to put it back in line if need be.

I did the swap for a few reasons.
1. Fuel Mileage
2. Gas is cheaper than Diesel currently.
3. IT makes a good addidtion for the Performance shop. I work on quite a few Vettes, camaros, mustangs, etc... So the car is good advertisement.
4. The 09 Dodge Ram pics came out and the price on the current bodystyle took a little price hit.

Mine is not as nice as yours by any means but it was only $1000 and only has 32k on the rebuilt Jasper.
