2010 Cadillac CTS-V: Second Year, First Coupe

This record's own dek states that 2010 was the 556-hp CTS-V sedan's second model year, with manual and automatic configurations, and that a single early coupe appears in the production list. This record's own overview states that Cadillac's 2010 CTS-V specification documents manual and automatic sedan configurations with the supercharged LSA 6.2-liter V8 at 556 hp and 551 lb-ft, and that the V-Series production list gives 1,745 CTS-V sedans for the model year and a single 2010 CTS-V Coupe (6DN47), the coupe going on sale as a 2011 model after Cadillac announced it at the 2010 Detroit auto show with production to begin that summer.^1,2

This record's own key facts restate CTS-V sedan production at 1,745, with one CTS-V Coupe listed under model year 2010. This record's own production rows carry that single coupe with a note that the source gives no explanation for the lone car, distinct from and not added to the 1,745-car sedan total, and this record's own overview attributes the single early coupe to Cadillac beginning coupe production ahead of the car's 2011 on-sale date.²

This record's own prices section documents an MSRP of $60,720 excluding destination and a dealer invoice of $56,773. This record's own engines section documents the LSA 6.2-liter supercharged V8 at 556 hp and 551 lb-ft as factory-advertised output, the rating standard not stated on the cited page, and this record's own transmissions section documents both a six-speed manual and a six-speed automatic as available on the sedan.^3,1

This record's own options section documents W2E Recaro performance seats, requiring AFF Ebony or AFH Light Titanium interior trim, the new 53F sueded steering wheel and shift knob requiring W2E in turn, C3U double-sized UltraView power sunroof, the new 3AS Wood Trim Package in real Midnight Sapele wood, and P80 polished 19-inch wheels offered alongside Q32 painted aluminum wheels of the same size. It also documents MX0, the six-speed automatic transmission offered at no charge since the MN6 six-speed manual was already included in the base MSRP.^4,4

This record's own options section further documents VK3 front license plate bracket, S08 Highway Safety Kit as a dealer-installed LPO, K05 engine block heater, and a set of federal and state emissions RPOs. This record's own identification section documents model codes 6DN69 for the CTS-V sedan and 6DN47 for the CTS-V Coupe, the coupe identified in the source as the Cadillac CTS 226 Coupe V-Series.^4,2

This record's own paint section documents five colors: GAN Radiant Silver and GBA Black Raven at no extra charge, alongside GBE Crystal Red Tintcoat, GBN White Diamond Tricoat, and GLH Thunder Gray ChromaFlair, all three available at extra charge though the amount is not stated; it notes that other CTS colors are either excluded from the CTS-V by footnote or marked "only available on CTS Sedan" without saying whether the CTS-V qualifies, so Black Cherry is not listed here. This record's own interiors section documents AFF Ebony and AFH Light Titanium, both available with standard AQ9 buckets or the W2E Recaro seats, and AFG Ebony with Cashmere inserts, available only with the AQ9 buckets and not with the Recaro option.^4,4
