2008 CTS Sneak-Peek
December 19, 2006 - 1:33 pm
GM, true to their word, put out this preview photo of the new 2008 CTS today.
Note the similarity (as in practically identical) to the styling buck Bob Lutz previewed on 60 Minutes. You can also see here a nod given to that appearance (pulling a similar blue tarp back in much the same way as in that preview).
Read on for the whole press release.
Ed Welburn, GM Vice President, Global Design (left) and Bob Lutz, GM Vice Chairman, Global Product Development, provide a sneak peek of the all-new 2008 Cadillac CTS, which will be fully revealed at Detroit’s North American International Auto Show in January. The performance luxury sedan is scheduled to begin production in late-summer of 2007, with worldwide sales to follow in the fall.
Cadillac’s first-generation CTS built a strong record of success on many levels since its inception in 2002. Cadillac sold more than 60,000 copies in the U.S. in 2005, compared to roughly 38,000 in 2002, an increase of more than 50% over that period. There are roughly 275,000 CTS owners worldwide, and industry researchers say they are among the most satisfied in the automotive market. AutoPacific rated CTS as the top Entry Luxury Car in its annual Vehicle Satisfaction Awards in 2006.

I have seen the new CTS and it will be worth the wait it is an awesome car. It will live up to the hype. More people know about the new Camero but this is the GM car people should be waiting for.
Talk about a tease! At first glance it looks lower to the ground to me than previous models.
Care to comment?
I want to see more of it!
The CTS is a great car, but I cant’ wait to drive the 2008 model.
