2008 CTS revealed today at the NAIAS

One of the big debuts today at the NAIAS was the 2008 Cadillac CTS. Chances are, if you have access to the Internet, you've probably already seen spy shots of this car, but it was still well received. GM is obviously taking direct aim at the European sport sedan market, and changes in the new CTS reflect that. The first big change, and the most obvious is the more athletic styling. Not drastically different, but still striking. You can easily see how this car has been used as the styling reference for the entire Cadillac line.
The CTS has grown too. It's now 2 inches wider and slightly longer too. Plus, the interior has had a thorough going through as well. New counsel, new steering wheel, and various interior trim pieces. Probably the coolest change for 'o8 though has to be the AWD option which is a first for the Caddy. Some good things have not changed though. You can still get the CTS in a 6-speed automatic, or a 6-speed manual which is always a good thing in our book as sticks become more and more rare.
It all looks good so far. Let's all wait patiently to find out when the V-Series is coming out.
