2008 Cadillac CTS Sport Concept

Cts1

  • Looks like: A beefier Cadillac CTS
  • Defining characteristics: Hood scoops and a mesh grille
  • Ridiculous features: The idea that the new CTS’ grille needed more-radical styling
  • Chance of being mass-produced: The Sport itself might not become a model, but it could serve as a precursor to the next CTS-V

Cadillac has added very little to enhance the performance of the new Cadillac CTS in this Sport concept, but interestingly enough it could be an early look at the next seriously beefed-up CTS-V. Since the V line came to the new generation of Caddies, they’ve brought bright grillwork. That’s definitely the trademark styling here, as well.

The Sport concept also gets 20-inch polished wheels, stronger brakes and a Corsa cat-back exhaust with modified tips that integrate into the rear bumper, which is a look we actually like. That can’t be said for the hood scoops, which get decked out in wire mesh as well. That’s just too much mesh for our mesh-meter. A few more photos are below.

Aren't hood scoops reserved for Pontiac?

I don't know if anyone from Caddy corporate reads this but, GET YER BUTTS BACK INTO GT Racing in 09.

They won this season, they take a year off because of the new model, but if they aren't there in '09 then the whole effort till now has been a waste of time.
