OMG! That is a very nice looking car. That is unbelievable for a luxury car with a V6 to be that damn fast. I've now got to go convince my wife we need a new grocery getter.

Is this the same platform that the 6th Gen. Camaro will be on? If so it gives a good perspective on size and wheelbase.

I know I will be in the minority here, but once again I think the sedan version blows away the styling of the coupe. Thought that about the last gen CTS as well.

Would it seem reasonable to use the performance of this car as a benchmark as to where the 6th Gen Camaro will fall performance wise since it is on the same platform? Does anyone know how much the twin turbo V6 in this car weighs fully dressed? I think it might be a wash weight wise if both the V6 in this and the planned V8 for the Camaro are close enough in weight. Regardless this is an impressive car I can't wait until they supply us with more performance numbers.

Disappointed, but not surprising there is no mention of weight. The increased rigidity says "more weight" to me, but then again there is the use of a carbon fiber hood to help remove weight.

Then there is the Carbon Fiber, and Track packs that can be optionally added to save weight even further.

I'd love to know what the weight is with, AND without these packages added.

Love the very aggressive hood and front end. That kind of hard edged, modern styling is what I hope we get with the 6th gen Camaro.

Wow I am guessing more like $70K loaded after I priced a standard ATS coupe loaded.

The LF3 weighs 20 lbs more than the LT1

After the embargo was lifted, the only number I've seen is from Autoblog who quotes a Cadillac spokesman as claiming the base curb weight is "about 3700 lbs"

60k starting would be my guess. Look at the M3/M4 prices, GM will almost certainly be within a couple grand.

Another gorgeous blue on a GM vehicle that's not a Camaro. They really are mocking us at this point.
