Spy Shots of the 2007 STS
March 24, 2006 - 11:13 am
The Car Connection is running a set of 4 spy photos of the 2007 Cadillac STS.
It looks like a mild freshening to bring the STS more in line with the softer look debuted, in part, on the 2007 Escalade.
Also, it looks like LED tail lights are going to be a more pronounced brand styling trait with this new STS sporting smoked lense tail lights with rows of amber and red LEDs that will be eye-catching if not exactly as stylish as the jeweled red lenses currently used.
We’d also bet on a mild interior upgrade as well to bring the STS more in-line with interior fit and finish as well as style seen in competing vehicles (not that the current STS is shabby at all).

Cadillac eyeing performance beyond the V-Series
March 23, 2006 - 2:19 am
Inside Line is reporting, from an interview with Cadillac product director John Howell, that Cadillac is eyeing a line of performance Cadillacs that would slot in above the V-Series.
With further styling and performance upgrades, these would likely be developed in conjunction with a 3rd party, euro-flavored tuning shop (like Alpina, Brabus, or Dinan).
If such a partnership comes to pass, expect these ‘super-V-series’ cars to debut by some time in 2007-2008 and to be powered by engines even more impressive than those already used by the V-Series (perhaps this will finally see that GM V-12 from the Cien concept in production).
