On paper the CTS-V is Cadillac's answer to the German super saloons: a supercharged V8 in a sensible four door suit. Legendary Cars took that recipe somewhere much stranger, bolting on a widebody kit with animated elements and a lighting job that turns the whole car into a rolling neon sign. DimoSerb converted the build to GTA V Enhanced so it runs as its own add-on in the current version of the game.
The screenshots show a black saloon outlined in glowing red: illuminated striping runs over the bonnet vents, around the grille, along the side skirts and across the rear diffuser, the CTS badge and the plate surrounds light up, and the red five spoke wheels sit over drilled brake discs. The show continues inside with red piping around the seat frames, red and blue strips at the top of the windscreen and an illuminated dashboard, and when the doors open the car beams C WING projections onto the tarmac. The animated widebody elements that give the mod its name top it off, and every panel opens, doors, bonnet and boot included.
The car installs as its own dlcpack, so it replaces nothing in the stock garage. Copy the folder into dlcpacks, register the animctswideels package in dlclist.xml with OpenIV or the onigiri loader, and spawn it with the model name animctswideels, the same as the folder.
The download comes in two variants: one with a custom engine sound and one that keeps the stock GTA engine audio, useful when another sound add-on conflicts with it, an issue the author notes has existed since the Legacy days. The mod was developed and tested on a clean copy of GTA V Enhanced, so performance will depend on the rest of your mod list.

Frequently asked questions
How do I spawn the CTS-V Widebody in game?
Use any trainer and spawn it by the model name animctswideels, which matches the dlcpack folder name.
I can't hear the engine sound. What's wrong?
Engine sound add-ons can conflict with each other, an issue that has existed since the Legacy scene. If it happens to you, install the variant that keeps the stock GTA engine sound.
Does it work on GTA V Legacy?
No. This port targets GTA V Enhanced only, so Legacy players should look for the original release by Legendary Cars instead.
What exactly is animated on this CTS-V?
The widebody kit elements are animated, which is the build's party trick, and it pairs them with the light show seen in the screenshots: red illuminated striping, glowing badges, a lit dashboard and C WING projections under the open doors.
