I wish these came in awd!

The extra traction would be nice, but I think it would hurt the dynamics of the car.

You could very well be right. Us up here in Canada have to be ready for the snow unfortunately. That’s why I always prefer AWD.

I'm in Florida so I can get away without it. I have had a ct5 with RWD and AWD at different times and could notice a difference. Both had the 2.0t though.

Must be nice out there eh! Ive heard the same and that RWD feels much better from a drivers perspective. I always wanted the V sport but opted for the 3.6 AWD instead 7 years ago. My next car I’m hoping to scoop a CT5 V AWD.

But that's why I would put any of the V class in the similar class as a Corvette, for nice weather driving car and have second one for the day to day heavy lifting, mine isn't a V but my 2011 CTS Coupe Performance Package is my personal and 2nd deary car and my wife's 2021 Explorer for everything else and I don't know if it's look at as a boomer vehicle or not but I'm at the very end of boomer so it doesn't matter

My old man had the same car. 2011 CTS coupe dressed as a V. He does what you do and has an Armada platinum for the winter. He just traded the CTS in for a fully loaded Genesis G90 5.0L.

You mean that it's a 2015-2021 because they stopped the 5.0 in 2021

I believe his is a 2020. This is the car he scooped with the 5.0L. He found one used with only 17k km on it.

If you can stomach being a little bit slower the 2.0 and 3.6 both come in awd if you want.

I have a 2.0 and it honestly does fine in traffic and merging and everything. Not as fast as my camaro but much more comfy

I had an ATS 2.0T and now have a CTS 3.6 AWD as stated in the comments. I find the 2.0T was fun to shotgun off red lights but otherwise was too weak.
