Spy Shots: Cadillac CTS-V Plus
Even more horses for the CTS? Bet on it.

As if the 400-horsepower CTS-V Series isn't enough, we photographed General Motors' Performance Division engineers testing an even higher performance version.

Referred to as the CTS-V Series Plus by spectators at the Nürburgring, this CTS mule is said to be powered by a 6.0-liter V-8, and sources are estimating the horsepower to be in the 475-500 range. General Motors is aggressively testing this more powerful CTS, but production plans have not yet been confirmed.

The vehicle show here is actually an older CTS-V mule. The higher-performance CTS-V Plus uses a larger-displacement pushrod small-block engine, so the hood hump should disappear in production

I think the "Vette people" need to get off their ****** high horse and quit ruining things for everyone else.

That stupid assed corporate edict has killed more than a few bad assed performance cars and I'm sick and tired of it.

And like others said... Caddy kinda outclasses Chevy by a long ways, and I don't think people shopping for an M3/M5 are going to have a vette in mind.
