About Us - Cadillac V-Club of North America

“To provide Cadillac V-Series owners with opportunities to connect with Cadillac headquarters and Cadillac dealers via an organized community of like-minded V-Performance enthusiasts who have a desire to take their ownership experience to the next level.

Members of the Cadillac V-Club are committed to the Cadillac brand and frequently share their experiences as proud owners of a “V” at localized events.  As a result, our members serve as an effective channel for Cadillac bringing more V-Performance awareness in the marketplace at the grassroots level.

While our mission and vision remain to promote networking and collaboration among our members and sponsors, we are committed to select worthwhile local and national charitable non-profit organizations to support financially."

Advisory Council

Members assigned to the Advisory Council are appointed by the Executive Operational Leadership Team. They attend board meetings like any other board member, provide input, and are considered as “Members at Large” with voting rights on key decisions. Their independence allows them to have a broader perspective, which prepares and shields the organization from risks they cannot foresee from a narrower viewpoint. Advisory Council members also serve on special committees that are convened to oversee and implement key initiatives.

The Cadillac V-Club is a North America organization operating under a General Motors "LOA" that offers multiple levels or "classes" of membership to provide enhanced ownership experiences to Cadillac V-Series owners.  The organization was founded and launched in 2013 as the Texas V-Club with an initial membership comprised of 10 Cadillac V-Series owners spread among 3 local chapters in Texas.  By 2014 membership exceed 300 members and in 2016, with the endorsement and support of General Motors/Cadillac, the Texas V-Club was re-branded and launched as the Cadillac V-Club.  Today, membership exceeds 1,100 active members spread among 6 regions and 22 local chapters.  The headquarters is located in Austin, Texas.

We are a 100% volunteer non-profit organization with no full time or part-time employees who receive compensation or a salary.  Revenue derived from membership fees and sponsorships is disbursed to cover organization expenses, member activities and support our charities.   As membership increases within each region, once there a minimum of 15 individual V-Series owners who are active "regional" members exist within a local 150 mile radius, a Local Chapter will be chartered and launched.  From the local chapter membership, a Chapter Director will be selected and approved by the Board of Directors.  Local Chapters host quarterly meet 'n greet/cruise events where a meal or the cost of venue entry fee is covered or subsidized for members.  There are also special national, regional and local chapter events scheduled throughout each year such as Cadillac Racing V-Corral/Suites at IMSA, WEC and F1 events.

Regional vs Local Chapter Membership vs Sponsorship (USA Only)

The Cadillac V-Club offers multiple levels or "classes" of membership.  Prospective members may choose to submit either a "Regional Solo" or a "Local Chapter" membership application. The primary difference between regional vs local chapter membership is that local chapters host formal events per year where the Cadillac V-Club either covers the full cost of a meal or subsidizes the cost of an event such as a track day or other activity.  Regional Solo members do not automatically receive official V-Club logo apparel and have the option during the application process to purchase either a V-Club logo crew shirt (non-colllared) or polo shirt (collared) for an additional fee.  Regional Solo members may attend any local chapter event as long as they pay a guest fee for themselves and their guests.  Regional members receive invitations to attend national and regional events as long as they do not unsubscribe from Cadillac V-Club email notifications.

Regional members of the Cadillac V-Club who are interested in being considered for a leadership role to serve as a local Chapter Director, may submit our Leadership Application form byclicking here. Once a minimum of 15 regional V-Series owners (family members do not count towards the requirement unless they also own a 2nd personal V-Series vehicle) reside with 150 miles of the proposed local chapter, a new local chapter will be chartered and launched. 

An introductory level "month-to-month" Regional Solo membership level is also available. This membership level provides an opportunity for Cadillac V-Series owners who are not ready to commit to a full annual membership payable in advance to join our community of V-Series enthusiasts for a nominal monthly fee.  The membership automatically renews and is charged to the member's credit card on file.  All benefits are identical to the annual Regional Solo membership and before the renewal date the member may upgrade to an annual membership level or cancel.

If you are a Cadillac V-Series Owner who resides in Canada, one level of membership is available in Canada as an "international" Regional Solo member.  Prospective Canadian Regional Solo members in Canada have the option to purchase either an official V-Club logo crew shirt or polo shirt during the membership application process.
