Somebody bought one of Cadillac’s wildest performance cars, ordered it with three pedals, and then barely drove it. Eleven years later, its odometer still hasn’t reached 700 miles.
The car is a 2015 Cadillac CTS-V Coupe, complete with a supercharged V8 and six-speed manual. It’s also a one-owner example that has apparently spent most of its life tucked away rather than shredding rear tires.
Its current selling dealer acquired the Cadillac in June and recently put it up for auction. With mileage this low, you’d expect collectors to take notice.
They did, but not enough to close the deal. According to the Cars & Bids listing, 59 bids pushed the CTS-V to $56,500 before the auction ended without a sale.
It Has Averaged Around 60 Miles A Year
The CTS-V’s digital odometer shows approximately 675 miles, an almost absurdly low figure for an 11-year-old car. The selling dealer says it has added very little mileage since acquiring it.
A clean Carfax accompanies the Cadillac, and the car is reported to have been registered to one owner from new. It’s finished in Phantom Gray Metallic over an Ebony interior and is said to be unmodified.
The equipment list includes heated and ventilated Recaro seats, 19-inch wheels, Magnetic Ride Control, a limited-slip differential, navigation, and a Bose sound system.
There’s A Supercharged V8 Up Front
Cadillac’s second-generation CTS-V wasn’t lacking firepower. Its supercharged 6.2-liter V8 produces 556 horsepower and 551 lb-ft of torque, all sent to the rear wheels.
This example also has a six-speed manual, the transmission choice that’s most popular among driving enthusiasts. The combination of a supercharged V8, rear-wheel drive, three pedals, and the CTS-V Coupe’s angular bodywork isn’t something Cadillac has repeated since.
There’s evidence the car hasn’t simply been forgotten mechanically. Its battery was replaced in 2022, the A/C condenser was changed in July 2025, and the engine oil and filter were replaced in June 2026.
$56,500 Still Couldn’t Buy It
There is one age-related item a future owner should probably address immediately. Cars & Bids notes that the tires carry 2014 date codes, making replacement sensible regardless of their tread depth.
The bigger question is what the dealer believes this CTS-V is worth. Cars & Bids doesn’t disclose reserve prices, so we don’t know exactly how far the $56,500 high bid fell short.
That leaves this remarkably preserved Cadillac in an unusual position. Its tiny mileage makes it collector material, yet the supercharged V8 and manual gearbox are precisely what make it difficult to imagine continuing to park it.
Someone preserved this CTS-V for 11 years. Judging by the first auction attempt, finding the person willing to pay enough for that restraint may take a little longer.
