Jalopnik managed to snag a shot of the upcoming 2009 Cadillac XLR-V.  If you’re not up on Cadillac-speak, “V” means really farking fast.  The current XLR-V makes do with a 443 HP 4.4 liter Northstar V8.  The big question on the 09 XLR-V is this - will it stick with the blown Northstar, or [...]

The fine car blog that is Jalopnik got their hands on the first shots of the  2009 Cadillac XLR - Caddy’s Corvette-based roadster.  The current XLR is a re-worked C5 Corvette, so the 2009 XLR is going to be based on the new C6.  Better chassis, more power, same sexed-up body.  Buyers of the [...]

Cadillac CTS-V.  That name is just a few years old, but already has the kind of bone-chilling effect that some other, much older names have.  You hear those letters and you know you’re talking about a fast car.  The previous generation was powered by a 400 HP LS6 - The Corvette Z06 engine.  For [...]

  The Cadillac CTS is good - in fact, it’s the best car in Cadillac’s lineup.  A Cadillac CTS Coupe is even better.  This is a classic example of two doors being better than four doors, at least in the looks department.  Don’t get me started on functionality.
Though it’s just a concept, I can’t think [...]

With the announcement that the upcoming Lincoln MKS sedan would only offer a V6 instead of a V8, one had to wonder what the folks over at Ford were thinking.  It seems they *may* have been on track, what with President Bush signing the new CAFE bill into law.  With more strict fuel economy standards [...]

These aren’t the first time the 2009 CTS-V has been caught on film.  It is, however, the first time that it’s been caught without any funky camouflage going on.  Inside Line managed to snag a few shots of GM’s new super sedan in the buff, for all of our enjoyment.
So, what makes the CTS-V [...]

A newer, greener, more environmentally friendly Cadillac Escalade Hybrid is on the way.  Photographers caught this massive hybrid out and about in the Nevada desert.  The first thing you’ll notice about the Escalade Hybrid is that it looks exactly like an Escalade - only small Hybrid badges will reveal the green nature of this beast.

Just the other day I posted some spy shots of the 2009 Cadillac CTS-V, with the early reports that HP would be somewhere in the 520 HP range.  Well, I was wrong.  Way wrong.  This car will be the fastest Cadillac ever produced by an even wider margin - I’m talking about 600 HP from [...]

Meet the 2009 Cadillac CTS-V - soon to be the fastest Cadillac ever.  Though the test mule is camouflaged pretty well, there are a couple key things that you can take away from this spy shot.All eyes first go to that big ol’ bulge in the hood - any guesses on what that means?  [...]

Though GM may be backing off many of the RWD cars that they promised, it looks like they’re still going to deliver on the Cadillac side.  The next generation Cadillac CTS-V is due to make it’s debut fall of 2008, and it’s not messing around.
The 2009 Cadillac CTS-V is expected to have 500 horsepower - [...]

The 2007 Cadillac Escalade is the first Escalade built on GM’s new full-size SUV platform. You can’t help but notice the massively upgraded engine - 403 HP speaks pretty loudly, in my book. Of course, the ‘bling’ factor has gone up overall - with available 22″ chrome rims, no less.
Design-wise, the 07 [...]
