![]() When the summer of 2010 rolls around, Cadillac will have seriously fast two-door sports cars roaming the streets: the CTSv Coupe. Testing is under way, and we've spied this very production-looking prototype cruising the rural roads of Michigan. Compared to the prototypes we saw last year, the new one has a very finished look, right down to the two massive center-mount exhaust outlets; larger, sportier wheels; and V-series badging. We can also see that this new prototype is not sporting cross-drilled rotors as the first prototypes were. Additionally, pieces of black tape cover the V-series badges just behind the front wheels. Other V-series parts include the wire mesh grilles, power dome hood, wider tires and large brake calipers. Under that power dome hood sits the 6.2-liter supercharged V-8 known as the LSA. Good for 556 horsepower and 551 pound-feet torque in the CTS-V sedan, we expect the Coupe V ratings to be very similar. Expect the V-series coupe to start production in the summer, at the same time the regular coupe starts rolling down the line at Lansing Grand River.
