Cadillac is celebrating just how far it has come in the last few years by releasing special “Crystal White Frost” editions of the CTS-V sedan and the ATS-V sedan and coupe. In addition to the crystal white frost paint, the ATS-V gets 18" aluminum wheels and a carbon-fiber package that adds a front splitter, hood vent, rear diffuser, and an extra aerodynamic rear spoiler. A luxury package spoils the buyer with sport alloy pedals, HID headlamps, a universal remote, enhanced CUE system with Apple CarPlay, and rear folding seats.
The CTS-V gets 19” aluminum wheels and the same carbon fiber goodies as the ATS-V. The luxury package features a tri-zone climate system, a power rear window sunshade and manually-operated rear side window shades, heated rear outboard seating positions, and a split folding rear seat with an armrest. The ATS-V variants will start at $10,995 extra over the base price ($60,465 for the sedan and $62,665 for the coupe) to total $71,640 for the sedan and $73,660 for the coupe. The Crystal White Frost CTS-V will have the same $10,995 premium over the $83,995 base sedan, which brings the total to an eye-watering $94,990.
Before you go ranting about the cost being more than the company's usual markup for special editions, keep in mind that Cadillac will only make 39 versions of the ATS-V coupes, 31 ATS-V sedans, and 29 CTS-V sedans for a total of 99 Crystal White Frost examples. These should fetch a substantial markup at an auction in the future.
