Cadillac's Affordable High-Performance Sleepers: Used V-Sport Models Offer Luxury and Power for the Price of an Accord
-
Cadillac created the V-Sport trim as a middle ground between standard luxury models and high-performance V models. V-Sports were actually performance models unlike similar trims from other brands.
-
Two V-Sport models were made the XTS V-Sport sedan with 410 hp turbo V6 and the 420 hp turbo V6 RWD CTS V-Sport, which could match the first gen CTS-V.
-
Fully loaded, the XTS V-Sport cost over $73K and the CTS V-Sport nearly $76K. But now used prices have dropped to as low as $20-23K.
-
For example, a 2014 CTS V-Sport with 62K miles is selling for $22,998. An 85K mile XTS V-Sport is only $20,995.

These now affordable V-Sports offer lots of performance and luxury for less than a new Honda Accord, making them appealing used performance sleepers.
