Cadillac posted that on their Facebook. I like the non-mesh grille. That's the V-series.

Re: Big Al LIVE From Monticello Motor Club!

I am looking forward to the results of this.

Hope there will be lots of videos available.

That coupe makes me tingle.

Wait, I'm not so sure that's the "V". No bulge on the hood, and judging by the sedan's engine bay that bulge is extremely necessary. I don't see how the coupe could have that different a front end to accomodate all that engine.

I've seen the V coupe near the plant where they'll be built.... that ain't it. The wheels are wrong, V coupe's are the same as the sedan.

I figured they'd have it there though.

Cadillac themselves said it was the V-series.

Of course, it could just be the concept. They can call it whatever they want, then.

Interesting.... maybe they're just trying to fool us with the test mules they're using around here

They can call it whatever they want, but it is the CTS Coupe Concept. The wheels are a dead giveaway.

That looks like it must be the Platinum series CTS Coupe, too.... looks to have the LED headlamps like the Escalade Platinum.
