Re: 2007 Cadillac CTS

go to that car spy shot website (google for "Car spy shots")

They have a thread with working pics in there somewhere.
Basically the renders are obvious chops/modified drawings.

The one from R&T looks like they took the current CTS and applied some acid to it so it melted some of the sharp edges and it looks a little more curved. that and it was given the STS pull style door handles.

the Popular mechanics pic looks like they flattened the CTSv and made it wider....

kind of like how they drew the CTS in that simpsons episode. (in other words, not proportional).

That is one of the worst chops I have ever seen in my life, I hope the new one doesn't look like that...yuk!

Re: 2007 Cadillac CTS

That is proabably not even close to what it will really look like. I think it would be a mistake if they use a cab-forward design on the next-gen. CTS.

The CTS has an edgy, radical look, they just need to evolve that look to hit it in with the rest of the upcoming Cadillac lineup.

As an owner of the current CTS, I disagree, I think it is a rather nice evolution from the current design, although I do agree this is just a digital rendition, and more than likely not what it will turn out to look like.

Re: 2007 Cadillac CTS

I'm more interested in the sidebar. That V plan seems too conservative. Why not take on AMG and M with insane power numbers and real luxo rockets?

Re: 2007 Cadillac CTS

What do I say? We can't make a judgement until the real car comes out with pictures and such. Chops and renderings aren't exactly accurate. Many automakers are actually off with their predictions of how a car's going to look...so I can't believe this yet or make any 'true' assumptions...until the car comes out, of course.

Saving up to buy one.
