2006 Cadillac Escalade -V

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: Joeychgo

Here's a tip for you I just got out of Detroit.

I spoke to a Cadillac rep there who confirmed that the Escalade-V is just around the corner. They didn't discuss pricing, but admitted that the Escalade V-Series prototypes have been testing with supercharged-V8, V-12, and one V-16 engines.

They said the V-12 is nearly certain. Soon thereafter, the XLR-V will be produced, with a supercharged version of the Northstar V-8, which will also underpin the STS-V in due course. Horsepower should be at least 400bhp.

Thought you might want to know. I'll keep my ear open for more.

This is what I heard. Cadillac had called a meeting a while back, where it is rumored Snoop Dogg, Shaq, and Kobe Bryant had met to design the 2006 Escalades. It should be hott.

The meeting was to make a version of the 2007 or 08 escalades.

The Escalade V series is inevitable, Caddy seems to be going towards the V series to capture the younger performance minded crowd.

I have a 2003 EXT and it is a great truck but I would rather have a CTS V over the Escalade V unless of course they are putting a 6 speed in the Escalade V

If you want a sports car buy a sports car- not a tahoe with 7000 hp and a caddy grille!

I'd like to see them continue the "Under 5 Second" standard with the Escalade-V.. it'd be a challenge, but we're due for something to take out the Typhoon as the fastest production SUV

Can't say that I'd buy one over a Lightning or a CTS-V when it comes to Caddy's, but I'd still like to see it!
