Despite its German location, Geiger Cars shows a great passion for tuning American cars. Instead of getting even more power and torque out of neighbouring brands like the Audi RS6, the BMW M5, or the Mercedes-Benz E63, Geiger chose to cross the Atlantic and create a monster out of a beast.
The Cadillac CTS-V already comes packed to the hilt with a supercharged 6,2-litre LSA V8 based on the LS9 V8 from the Corvette ZR1. In its raw form it makes 415 kW at 5 900 rpm and 747 N.m of torque. Not content, Geiger engineers upped the charge pressure releasing 455 kW and 850 N.m of torque, and called it Brute Force. Drive is still thrust upon the 6-speed gearbox and the rear wheels, although fifth and sixth gears are shortened. Top speed is rated at over 330 km/h.
Geiger gives assurances that the car is a good compromise between a long-distance cruiser and a sharp, agile cornering machine. It can be had for EUR84 900, just EUR10 500 more than what Cadillac charges for the standard vehicle in Europe.
