THE
V-SERIES >>
CADILLAC CTS-V
Details on the new Cadillac CTS-V are
pending. Scheduled release dates slated
for sometime in 2008 - 2009. Check back
soon as information will be posted here
within 48hrs. on this much anticipated
V-series edition.
Cadillac's 2008 CTS comes with an available
3.6L Direct Injection V6 Varible Valve
Timing engine. With DI technology, fuel
is atomized and injected straight into
the combustion chamber - resulting in
cleaner emissions, better fuel economy,
and an increase in output to the tune
of 304 horsepower. (Cadillac touts a
500hp V8 endowed CTS-V for 2008-2009)
Enhancing CTS performance is the 6-speed
Hydra-Matic transmission with Driver
Shift Control, all-speed traction control,
four wheel independent suspension StabiliTrak
control system (throw it into a quick
turn and the suspension immediately
stiffens in response, keeping the body
in firm control) ZF Servotronic II steering
gear, 17" aluminum wheels and oversized
high-performance brake rotors.
The exterior of CTS is subtle in it's
sleek new design, with a slightly wider
and lower overall stance, refined body
styling that combines curves with angular
edging, and a level of fit and finish
unseen in any American car, easily rivaling
the best of the European's. Super tight
gap tolerances of less than 3mm are
solid indications of the new level of
craftsmanship GM has attained.

PERFORMANCE
AND TECHNOLOGY
But it's what's on the inside of the All
New CTS that is even more remarkable. Everywhere
you look within the CTS's gorgeously sculpted
interior you find unparalleled comfort,
style, technology and craftsmanship. At
night, interior ambient lighting creates
a gentle glow from under the wood trim and
compartments that enhances spacial cognition
and lends an air of elegance and sophistication
thoughout the jetstream-style cabin.
To add legroom for rear passengers, the
new CTS's thinner, curved front seats with
heating and cooling are ergonomic designed
to add to driver comfort as well as the
futuristic look of the interior. Passengers
are also treated to an ultra-view double
sunroof.
Complimenting the feel on the inside is
Bose® 5.1 8-speaker sound system, which
has an equally remarkable set of new features.
An internal 40GB hard drive offers Tivo-like
capability, so if your favorite radio show
gets interrupted - just press Pause. When
you get back to the car, you can pick up
right where you left off. The optional HD
also allows you put a CD into the drive
and hit "Record" to have all the
songs instantly copied and stored. The in-dash
screen rises to full size so you can see
all the information about the music you're
listening to, view GPS navigation, or local
traffic and weather forecast information.
You also have an i-Pod cradle which allows
you to sync in your music to the CTS's surround
sound system or listen to MP3s straight
off a flash drive plugged into a USB port
hidden inside the CTS's center storage bin.
