Cadillac CTS Coupe 2011

We first witnessed the new Cadillac CTS Coupe at the 2008 North America International Auto Show in Detroit last year. Remaining true to the concept revealed there, the ready for prime time CTS Coupe is as stunning in person as it is in front of the camera lens.

“CTS Coupe is the new focal point of Cadillac, expressing both our technical and design capabilities,” said Bryan Nesbitt, Cadillac general manager. “It is intended to appeal to a new generation of car enthusiasts.”

Available in both rear-wheel and All-wheel drive format; the CTS Coupe is intended as a classic 2+2 layout. Power comes in the form of a direct injection 3.6L V6 engine mated to a 6-speed manual transmission. A 6-speed automatic transmission with Driver Shift Control (and available steering wheel mounted shift buttons) is optional. Performance is rated at a stellar 304 horsepower while still achieving a respectable 27 mpg highway.

Inside, features include integrated iPod/MP3 compatibility, a 40 gig hard drive, pop-up navigation system and BOSE 5.1 sound. Front seats are supremely comfortable with back seats providing adequate space for small to medium-sized occupants. Sales of the new CTS Coupe are expected to begin in spring 2010 with a “V” model making its debut later in the year.

Anything that could be shed to aid in performance was eliminated. Upgrades for the 305 horsepower WRX STi include JDMI STI Spec wheels and a Nürburgring-tuned JDMI STI suspension.

Improvements for the Impreza WRX Limited add High-intensity Discharge (HID) headlights, leather-trimmed seats and SIRIUS satellite radio. Driving fast, while maintaining complete control of your sport sedan, just became a little more fun.

The Coupe Concept rides has the same wheelbase and width as the standard Mini hatch, but is slightly longer overall while standing a full 2 inches lower. Mini is coy about whether or not the coupe will be built, but hints that the vehicle is capable of using the most powerful engine available in a Mini — the 208-horsepower turbocharged 1.6-liter four in the John Cooper Works edition.
