Damn that looks 100000 times better as a 2 door :tup:

CTS-V Coupe would be even better…

Considering this is a concept I bet the rear will get changed.  
I’m guessing this is targeted towards the G37 coupe customers.

From a Cadillac Forum:  
"That’s been sitting under a cover in a corner at GM’s design studio for a long time. Take note of the headlights, steering wheel and shift knob- they’re straight out of the pre-production design exercises (like shown on 60 minutes).

If this had been recently built for the show, it would have final production interior and fender vent placement. Amazing that they were able to sit on that for as long as they have."

To much 318TI in the rear for me. I love the new CTS though, was driving with one south of Cleveland on Sunday and couldnt keep my eyes off it.

I love it. Nearly identical to what the production version will look like.

Did you guys see the interior yet? [http://www.autoblog.com/photos/detroit-2008-cadillac-cts-coupe-concept/](http://www.autoblog.com/photos/detroit-2008-cadillac-cts-coupe-concept/)

14 way adjustable seats  
I saw the interview on TV

I still like the recaros from the V better

Also they put little fins on the tails as a “throw back”.

I think it would be a CTC. pretty sure the S stands for sedan.

Wow I’m in love. I actually like the rear being pointed, it gives it character. In an age where no one (or company) has the balls to do anything different it would be cool to see it come out threw a production car.

I love what GM has been doing lately.
