But I do agree with you, the GXP Coupe does look like this, now, you know, I would not be caught in one...
But, I like the Normal coupe better than Altima, Sorala or Accord.. they are too bloated for my liking..

That's what I thought at first too, that he was mixing up Sigma with Zeta. But then I realized he was talking about the GM corporate line on in the two coupes. GM said that the CTS Coupe was only a concept and would not confirm production when it debuted at Detroit. They basically said the same thing about the Coupe 60, namely that it must remain a concept for now.

While I hope the Coupe 60 does become the next Monaro, I really would rather see a more daring, less conservative coupe if it came across as a Pontiac. A proper GTO would be nice. That's 3 very big "ifs" at this point though (if it makes production in Australia, if it makes it to the US, and if it gets unique sheet metal). Probably will never make it that far.

Re: 2010 Cadillac CTS Coupe - Spied

That car is going to be so sweet when it hits the road. Hopefully they will shove a HO V8 in and call it CTC-V! I see at least one 08 CTS on my way to Grand Rapids when I go to class. They are just so sweet looking, especially at night time when the light pipes are on. I let them pass me on the freeway so I can see all the lighting at dusk. So sweet!

Re: 2010 Cadillac CTS Coupe - Spied

I cant believe they hung onto to the center mounted dual exhaust. Cadillac design is really waving a great big f**k you to the rest of the industry right now, and rightfully so.

GM (alone) is starting a renaissance in the auto business. What will the other US makers do? Get on or get off?

Re: 2010 Cadillac CTS Coupe - Spied

I am very susprised they kept the center exhaust! I would guess they are kepping the overtly angular rear end of the Coupe Concept! This will have almost as much impact as the new CTS when it was released last year! Now all we can hope for is a Turbo HF3.6 with 400ish hp for us who want a V, but dont have the $60,000 for it!

others will just steal Gm's designs IE: Chery,Ford with Verve (Chevy Wtcc), VW Ircco including Saab's turbine style rims (Saab Aero X).

Re: 2010 Cadillac CTS Coupe - Spied

I hope GM has used Aero concept themselves with 9-1X.

i like the CTS Couple but Caddy normally goes overboard with HP and doesn't use 'right placement'.Which is why I prefer Saab's.Interior is unique and great wonder if saab would use it also as a Viggen trim?it fits with the yellow and black of the lighting theme.

Have a one two three punch with the G8, GTO, and Solstice. I'm going to pretend I've never seen or heard of the ridiculous G6 GXP

I don't think we'll see that in our life time.unless Buick is allowed to move downscale.BPG dealers need that FWD car for people that want a G8 but can't afford it.
