2009 CADILLAC CTS WAGON: SPIED (kind of)!

**Rex Raider** · 10-10-2007, 08:20 PM

From the Car Connection: http://www.thecarconnection.com/

Cadillac's CTS is new for the 2008 model year, and according to TheCarConnection.com's editorial braintrust, the new version is an enthusiast hit.

Will enthusiasts cotton to a new wagon version of the edgy CTS? Cadillac hopes they will as it plans for a wagon version of the CTS, likely to bow at the 2008 North American International Auto Show in Detroit . The wagon CTS hasn't been shown publicly-and Cadillac hasn't confirmed its existence-but spy photographers and illustrators have come up with this computer-generated take on what the CTS wagon will look like when it bows next year.

If only I could justify today Cadillac money on a car instead of paying off my home loan....this would be mine!

RamJet502 · 10-10-2007, 08:24 PM

Are they replacing the SRX?

drew630 · 10-10-2007, 08:24 PM

Thats a BADDDD chop.... With that said, the overall look is pretty good IMO.

Caddyguy57 · 10-10-2007, 08:28 PM

Ok..now show me the coupe!

dindak · 10-10-2007, 08:28 PM

WOW.. that would be nice. I would almost drool for a wagon, how scary.

A Cadillac CTS wagon would be a nice car but the one in the picture looks like a photoshop. I think it is but regardless of if the car in the photo is a photoshop, a Cadillac CTS wagon would be a good addition to the CTS's lineup as well as the coupe but those are coming in the next year or next few years. Either way the I'm expecting the actual Cadillac CTS wagon and coupe to be very nice looking cars in their respective segments and they should prove very sucessful for GM.

Looks OK but needs the black window frame to continue back and wrap around the top and rear of the rear side window.

Does it need a roof rack? Something else just seems to be missing. (Yes, I know it's a chop.)

Greg Burr · 10-10-2007, 09:07 PM

Maybe if the make this they don't need the SRX (which is a CTS derivative). But I like the SRX.

My thoughts exactly. The title ought to have been, "CTS wagon Photoshopped!"

The rear end looks oddly truncated and boxy, doesn't match the rest of the car at all.

For GM's sake I hope this isn't a good approximation.

Hoosier Red · 10-10-2007, 09:09 PM

Yep - I want that. I think the rear end will be a little more edgy......this looks too rounded for the Caddy look. But I like it a lot.
