    Cadillac CTS Suspension Question

    The shocks are different in the Base and Sport version CTS. The Sport version is much stiffer and feels much more stable at high speeds. It uses a Nivomat self-leveling shock in the rear for load leveling too. From what I have read, there isn't a problem with lowering the car using the stock...

    Supercharged 3.2L V6

    I would much rather have a V too. :D But upgrading the CTS I have is much cheaper than trading up at the moment (that and I want to see the STS-V before buying a new car).

    Supercharged 3.2L V6

    Now that your 320hp VVT Northstar is shared with the SRX and STS, I bet you will begin to see some more aftermarket interest. :)

    Five Hundred may spawn Town Car; Ford considering awd, V8 sedan

    Welcome to the dark side. The 2008 DeVille will be on the Sigma platform (meaning it will have RWD and AWD). Rumors even have it being based off the Sixteen concept.

    Supercharged 3.2L V6

    Wait, there is hope for you yet. I found this posted on the forums at www.caddyedge.com : Also, wasn't RSM going to become a sponsoring vendor here at LVC?

    Venturi - Car Fetish

    It looks like a Bugatti Veyron. Except not as well designed. Or powerful. Or interesting.

    When 400hp just isn't enough... ;)

    Lingenfelter is talking about releasing a twin turbo system for the CTS-V. 600-700hp from the LS6? They say it fits under the hood and is undetectable from stock unless you're at WOT. Early pic:
