Actually, I think it has more to do with Europe and Saab

Looks like spy shots have shown up for the 2012 Cadillac ATS sedan at http://www.gminsidenews.com.

Fake.

Dash-to-axle ratio is wrong for a RWD car, license plate is off-center when compared to the taillights, and the other rear tire would've been visible at that angle.

And the rounded roofline looks suspect. But timing-wise ATS mules showing up would be about right if the car is scheduled for Q2 or Q3 2011 production, as is rumored.

For the record, Burlappcars is NOT a reputable site, especially for spy photos.

Uh, no.

If you read the comments on that thread, you can see that the vast majority of our members called BS the minute the link to BurlappCars was posted. In no way are we affiliated with that site.

Stuff the TT 2.8 in an AWD Terrain, bump the horse power to 350 and call it a Typhoon.

Yeah, I pulled the image off of GMI. That is where I saw the image and the original post which is why I put the link to GMI.

And what Fen is trying to tell you is that the discussion thread on GMI where that picture was posted (and where you pulled it from) was saying that it most likely a fake. In these situations, its handy to post a direct link so that others who want more info can get it directly
