Cadillac CTS-V black diamond edition

Cadillac has just announced an addition to the CTS-V range, with a new version called the Black Diamond Edition. The Black Diamond edition comes with a special black paint finish that is embedded with aluminum flakes. Imagine the old hot rods with candy apple red flake paint, except it is black.
The paint scheme is intended to look like tiny diamonds are embedded in the Cadillac's surface. The engine remains at 556 HP, which may disappoint some, but you'll get black-graphite 19-inch wheels, black wood trim, yellow-painted brake calipers and Recaro leather seats with suede inserts
You can order the CTS-V black diamond edition in wagon, sedan and coupe as of next month. Price for this beast start at $69,190 with a six-speed manual and $70,490 for cars equipped with an automatic transmission. This increases the base by $4850 over the CTS-V base models. 
I'd like the sedan or the wagon. Not over the moon with the coupes styling and yellow interior option. You could always order the "standard" CTS-V and take it to D3 Cadillac or Hennessy and for the extra $4,850 you could most likely take the HP to over 600. Yee HAA.
