Cadillac had a surprise up its sleeve when it showed off the very slick new Cadillac CTS Coupe at the 2008 Detroit International Auto Show. Not simply a slapped together two-door version of the CTS sedan, this coupe has been re-styled from the ground up as a coupe. With a stunning rear quarter, aggressive interior styling and all around more aggressive look, this is the first Cadi I have actually seriously considered trading in my current car for. Back are the glory days of Cadillac being a car American’s can be proud of. Cadillac even borrowed a cue from their rich heritage when designing the coupe, fitting what design head Ed Welburn described as a “hint of Cadillac fin” in the arrangement of the taillamps.
