Purchased by the current seller in May 2024 and driven 19,000 miles since, it carries Recaro front seats, Magnetic Ride Control, a performance data recorder, and 73,500 total miles. Bidding stands at $2,100 with five days remaining and four bids placed.2016 Cadillac ATS-VCars & BidsWhat it's worth right nowData from Kelley Blue Book sets the 2016 ATS-V Coupe Fair Purchase Price at $27,010, with private party values from $22,710 to $26,510 and a current resale value of $24,300. Classic.com records a low of $19,800 for a 2016 in January 2026 against a high of $77,776 for a 2018 sedan.AdvertisementAdvertisementThe manual gearbox is the variable that matters most here. Cadillac sold few of them and enthusiasts pay for the privilege, which pushes this car above the published coupe figures, while 73,500 miles, a disclosed throwout bearing noise, and interior tears push back. Fair value lands between $22,000 and $30,000, with $26,000 most likely. The current bid of $2,100 is an opening formality with five days to run against a reserve.2016 Cadillac ATS-VCars & BidsCondition and detailsEquipment is the right specification. The build sheet lists 18-inch wheels, Magnetic Ride Control, leather and sueded microfiber upholstery, power-adjustable Recaro front seats, carbon fiber interior trim, a performance data recorder, and Bose audio. Modifications are light and mostly reversible, covering Creative Steel shifter bushings, a Street Driven Performance carbon fiber hood vent, a Maverick Man Carbon rear spoiler, and an OEM Camaro 1LE short-throw shifter, with the factory shifter assembly and heat extractor included in the sale.2016 Cadillac ATS-VCars & BidsThe throwout bearing is the item to price. The seller reports an intermittent noise from it, and replacing a throwout bearing means removing the transmission, so the labor arrives whether or not the clutch itself needs attention, which makes doing both together the sensible approach. Budget accordingly rather than hoping the noise resolves itself. Other disclosed flaws cover exterior chips and scuffs, windshield chips shown in the video, and tears in both the driver's seat upholstery and the trunk lining.2016 Cadillac ATS-VCars & BidsDocumentation is thinner than the mileage warrants. Carfax records front and rear brake pads plus an oil change in April 2024 at 54,545 miles, after which the seller reports four tires in July 2025 and struts in October 2024, supported by parts receipts and a service spreadsheet in the gallery. That covers 19,000 miles of ownership lightly. A loan also remains outstanding, so the title follows the payoff. A pre-purchase inspection from a General Motors performance specialist is essential.2016 Cadillac ATS-VCars & BidsAdvertisementAdvertisementThe offerSpecificationDetailMakeCadillacModelATS-V CoupeYear2016Mileage73,500 milesEngineTwin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V6Power464 horsepower and 445 lb-ft of torqueTransmissionSix-speed manualDrive typeRear wheel driveExterior colorRadiant Silver MetallicInterior colorLight Platinum and Jet BlackCurrent bid$2,100 with five days remainingInterested in this car? View the listing here.What makes the ATS-V uniqueNobody expected Cadillac to build a credible M4 rival, which is part of why the ATS-V landed as hard as it did. Arriving for 2016 with a twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V6 making 464 horsepower, Magnetic Ride Control, an electronic limited-slip differential, and a chassis reworked well beyond the standard ATS, it drew comparisons Cadillac had not earned in decades. Offering it as a coupe and a sedan with a manual gearbox sealed the argument.2016 Cadillac ATS-VCars & BidsRarity now shapes the values. Production ended after 2019 and the CT4-V Blackwing replaced it, a better car by most measures but a different one, and the manual take rate on the ATS-V was low enough that three-pedal examples surface infrequently. Cadillac has since confirmed the Blackwings are the last of the combustion V-Series, which places the ATS-V at the start of a lineage that is now closing.My takeAt $2,100 with five days of bidding still ahead, this has barely begun, and my call is $26,000, with $30,000 possible if two buyers want a three-pedal ATS-V coupe badly enough. The specification is close to ideal, with the manual, the Recaros, Magnetic Ride Control, and a performance data recorder, and the modifications are light enough to reverse using the factory parts included in the sale. What holds it back is the disclosed throwout bearing noise, which means a transmission-out job and makes replacing the clutch at the same time the sensible move, plus a service record covering 19,000 miles of ownership thinly and a lien that delays the title. Price in the clutch work, then bid.AdvertisementAdvertisementDisclaimer: This post is for informational purposes only. We are not a dealership or broker.
