Preview of 08 STS interior
February 15, 2007 - 9:27 amBusiness Week is running a great piece about the design resurgence at GM. As part of this are a photo gallery of some of the things GM is looking into.
One picture, that is possibly an unintentional leak, is this picture of an interior that we know and love from the Chinese-only SLS but sporting a new steering wheel straight from the 08 CTS. As you can see on the nav screen, this interior is actually an STS – confirming that the STS will very soon get the upgraded interior that Cadillac put in the SLS but wouldn’t confirm as being destined for a mid-cycle refresh of the STS.
Expect the refresh of the STS to appear as a 2008 model.
Also shown is this concept rendering of a possible key fob that Cadillac might use to help enhance the image of the brand as well as to serve as advertising to those who might see your keys. No word on when we might see the new fobs, if ever.
It is wonderful to see how seriously GM is taking design and it looks like Cadillac is to be one of the prime beneficiaries, as it should be.

Winding Road rendering of CTS Coupe (CTC?)
November 10, 2006 - 12:28 pm
Winding Road, David E. Davis Jr’s latest car mag (this one an online only offering) has a rendering of what the CTS coupe might look like.
Unfortunately, it appears that they (meaning Winding Road) has stayed a bit too close to the current CTS rather than the upcoming CTS which we’ve seen in spy photos for months. The rear view of this rendering is especially far off, in our estimation.

Spy photos of the CTS-V
October 18, 2006 - 9:11 amLeftlane News is running a great set of the new CTS-V getting its groove on at the Nurburgring in Germany.
Unlike previous CTS-V spy shots, these give us a pretty clear view of the unique grill and lower bumper that will differentiate this CTS from lesser examples.
It appears that the mesh grill will return along with an agressive lower air intake…now if we could only get some definitive info on what that air is feeding and cooling…
Expect the CTS-V to arrive a year after the new CTS (likely as a 2009).
