Auto Show PICS Lots of CTS-V Coupe pics

Well I looked all over and didn't see where anyone had started a thread for the recent auto show in Detroit so I just thought I would post some pics I took from it. Hope you enjoy.

I understand exactly what you are saying thats how I felt when I was seeing it in person. It just didn't do anything for me. Funny thing is they had the little spokeman talking about the car and bragging how it had 4 more HP then the Lexus LFA that I got pictures of also and how it cost 210,000 less then that car. Man people who didn't know anything about how cars work were acting like it could hang with the LFA. Little did they know the LFA is a supercar and weight like 2500 lbs while that CTS-V is coming in at like 4100 lbs. I wanted to smack the shit out of their rep for acting like it was a better and faster car.

Awesome pics, what was that 3rd car in the photos (with the rear engine)? Says somethings like 'RS Spyder somethin' on the floor beside it, but who makes it?

~3300 and massively short on torque. Still gonna be faster than a CTS-V, it will probably have similar performance to a Z06.

Logo on the motor is the Audi rings.

The Saleen Mustang looks nice except for the hood. They might as well just build a pyramid on the hood with how many layers they have on that thing... You have the outer body line, the actual hood line, the raised cowl line, then the ram air line? They forgot the twin intakes on the side, and the reverse cowl on top of the ram air intake...

Nice pics! The auto show just came to Houston and I can't wait to see some of those cars in person.

CTS-V couple looks very plain from the side view pics. The pic from the rear looks nice, and the front looks just like the sedan V.

The mustang looked very plain too. The Saleen version did look pretty good though.

the mustang is just sooo vanilla, styling wise there is nothing exciting about it.

I thought it was just me. It's too hatchback-y; I think it needs more of a trunk

Worst part of the cts coupe is the back end. How could they make a hatchback?? It looks horrible.

The CTC's awkward proportions stem from the fact that they kept the sedan's wheelbase while shortening the overall length, then chopped the top. I would rather have seen them make it a 2 door CTS rather than something ... unique.
