admin — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 02:06:29 +0000

Cadillac adds more power to its top of the line roadster. Using a supercharged Northstar V8 putting out 440 HP and 425 lbs. of torque, 90% of which is available at just 2200 rpm, the XLR-V will be capable of a 0-60 time of under 5 seconds. Besides the power increase, the XLR-V also features larger brakes; recalibrated Magnetic Ride Control (MR); larger front stabilizer bar and the addition of a rear stabilizer bar; stiffer rear lower control arm bushings, and larger wheels and tires.

Cadillac STS-V Pictures and Specifications

Remember the days when Cadillac only made cushy, boring cars for people over the age of 75? You should cause it was only a couple of years ago. All that has changed since the introduction of Cadillac's V lineup. The 440 HP Supercharged V8 in the new STS-V isn't designed to get Grandma to church as quickly as possible. It's for the enthuasiast driver who wants the performance of a sports car with the luxury and comfort of a Cadillac.

Unlike the CTS-V, the STS-V's V8 isn't just a Corvette motor stuck into a Cadillac. It's a 4.4 liter Northstar V8 with an Eaton Roots-type supercharger integrated with the intake manifold. Combined with a 6 speed automatic transmission with a manual shift option, the STS-V will be good for a 0-60 under 5 seconds and a 1/4 mile in the very low 13s. Also unlike Grandma's Cadillac, the STS-V won't exhibit excessive body roll driving around a parking lot.

The STS-V has been tuned for performance on virtually every road condition and environment including GM’s all-new Milford Road Course facility and the Nordschleiffe (North Course) at Nürburgring. As a result of this extensive development, the vehicle has track-capable acceleration, braking and cornering abilities. This is due, in part, to increased tire sizes (P255/45R18 front, P275/40R19 rear); increased brake rotor diameters, larger pad areas, and larger calipers; increased stiffness stabilizer bars and suspension springs; a faster steering ratio; and chassis tuning aimed at delivering high performance without punishing the driver. So don't expect to see Grandma pull up to your driveway in a new STS-V. Unless of course you happen to have a really cool Grandma.

What I would give to be Jay Leno right now. Not just because hes a famous celebrity but because when he talks to the GM Vice President of design Ed Welburn about creating a mid-engine supercar, not only does he listen, he actually produces the car. "EcoJet's esthetics were driven by aeronautical and jet-age influences," said Welburn. "It's a purpose-driven design that conveys power, capability and even danger, with a hint of Cadillac's sophisticated design vocabulary." The 650-horsepower (400 lb-ft of torque) Leno original is powered by a Honeywell LT-101 turbine engine that runs on bio-diesel fuel. The engine sits in a modified Corvette Z06 hydroformed aluminum frame with aluminum and magnesium structural and chassis components.

2011 Cadillac CTS-V Coupe

The CTS-V was already a beautiful car, but substracting 2 doors makes it even better. Powered by a 556-hp supercharged 6.2L V-8, the CTS-V Coupe rips to 60mph from a standstill in just 3.9 seconds. Though most will opt for the automatic, the CTS-V Coupe is available with a Tremec TR6060 six-speed manual, making it a true driver's car.

Like the previous CTS-V, the second generation features a V8 derived from the top of the line Corvette. Only this time it's not the Z06 as the introduction of the ZR1 a few months before means the second generation features a derivation of the ZR1's supercharged LS9 putting out 550 HP (from 620HP).
