The photographs appearing above are of the concept version of the CTS coupe revealed at the Detroit auto show in January 2008. The production version will not be introduced until next summer at the earliest. I have no clue what the actual steering wheel and the other interior features will look like but if the CTS sedan, the new SRX crossover and even the new Buick LaCrosse are any indication, the CTS coupe interior will be first rate.

I have waited this long and I have a decent vehicle to drive so as of now I am leaning toward suspending my decision for a while until I can see the Cadillac. The CTS sedan interior is one of the best ever in an American vehicle and in a two-door sport coupe, that could be my perfect car.
Why would someone post such a statement on a Camaro Forum? What's wrong, isn't there a Cadillac CTS forum? Or (God forbid) an Audi Forum?

to me the outside suffers from a case of the "2010 mustangs":( the front and side profile is very nice, but the back end is pretty horrible. Id have to give it a loot in person, but if the interior is similar to the sedan then its going to be 100% top notch.

i dont really like the back side of the cts coupe, i dont know how they could make the tail lights any better if they would change the shape idk it would look out of place

the cts coupes rear looks like a g35s rear the front is nice but the back is just plain imo

I can't wait to see the final version...released and out on the roads. I'll give it Caddy...that's one bad @ss ride.

And, if you do decide to go with a CTS coupe, more power to you.....BEAUTIFUL ride.

For the poster "Windy City", this is a "Camaro versus ..." forum and the Cadillac CTS coupe and Audi A5 are 2-door enthusiast-oriented sport coupes like the Camaro.

It is my understanding that this site is open to prospective Camaro purchasers who may also be considering other sport coupe competitors and is not restricted to participation by folks who already purchased a new Camaro. Am I wrong?

I own an 05 cts now (for sale!) and love the newer styles (08+) but for some reason i think the cts coupe is a ugly car, and a terrible idea....its competition is so far ahead of it performance wise, unless they up the ante it won't sell well.


Again, just my opinion, best of luck to you if you buy it, but if you're too tall i heard the challengers were bigger, tho it seems like nothing can touch a camaro right now.

The back end is the only part I don't like, but I am guessing it will change some production. Now if they make a CTS-V coupe, Um HUH!

GM as a whole is turning around as far as interior quality, more so than ford and chrysler cars and SUVs. and ill admit the camaro may not be the one that it is most evident in, but it is very hard to make a classy, modern, interior have the retro styling the camaro does, and i love it.

as far as CTS coupe, i say wait. im sure you can get it with the LTT, and possible a V series to come

I'm not sure how I feel about the new coupe. I have seen it on the new Cadillac commercial, and it might just be the commercial, but it just doesn't do it for me. Are they planning on having a coupe model with the CTS-V engine in it? A coupe with that engine in it would be very nasty. Although it just seems to like that aggressive styling that even the CTS-V sedan has.

This I somewhat disagree with have you seen the interior on the new Taurus or the 11 Grand Cherokee? everybit as good or better than GM mainstream interiors. Even their other cars have gotten way better and Chrysler's next gens of every car should be more than comparable. I don't think GM is nywhere near there yet on every car. Friend had an 09 G8 GT, great interior design, materials and craftsmanship, could've used some work. IMHO, the 08 and up cCharger (with it's minor interior refresh), had better materials, but the G8, had a better design.
