All Couped Up

There's no doubt that the Cadillac CTS is one of the top cars on the market. It's a great looking car, its well built and the ride is extraordinary. If you like a larger car, this is a great vehicle.
Yesterday GM unveiled the latest addition to the CTS family, the long-await CTS sports coupe, a car with sleek lines and a little more get up and go than the CTS sedan or wagon.
The coupe, which will officially be unveiled next week at the Los Angeles Auto Show, is expected to be in showrooms in the middle of next year.
While the price of the coupe is planned to be the same as the sedan – somewhere in the neighborhood of 40 grand – customers will be getting a little less metal for their money. The couple – which has that same sleek design we're seeing the vehicles like the Buick LaCrosse and the new Jaguar XJ – is about 2 inches lower and two inches shorter than its sister but size doesn't matter when it comes to power. The coupe comes with a 304 horsepower V6 and a mileage rating of about 27 mpg on the highway.
While this car is billed as a sports luxury vehicle, it might not be the car you want to drive on the family trip to New Jersey. Sure you can show it off when you get to Aunt Mary's but your passengers may be feeling a little couped up if their stuck in the back seat of this coupe for too long.
On the other hand, this is a great car to have if you want to make a great impression.
