Looking to get your hands on the new 2011 CTS Coupe? Start putting away your pennies…nickels, dimes, quarters and plenty of folding money, as well. The well-reviewed 2-door will start at $38,990 when it goes on sale in the weeks ahead.
That will cover the standard-issue 3.6-liter, Direct Injection V6, which will make 304 horsepower. Not enough? Start a second piggy bank. The supercharged, 556-horsepower, 6.2-liter CTS V-Series Coupe will set you back $62,990, GM reveals. (All figures here include destination charges.)
Caddy has been steadily expanding its “base” model line-up, starting with the econd-generation CTS sedan, then 4-door V-Series and the CTS wagon. But the Coupe version has been generating buzz ever since its debut, several years ago, in concept form at the Detroit Auto Show.
It features an even more edgy take on the so-called Art & Science design language that Caddy introduced on the first CTS sedan, with just a hint of the division’s XLR 2-seat sports car. While the front end is largely the same sheet metal as the CTS 4-door, everything back of the A-pillar is unique to the coupe.
The 2011 CTS Coupe shares the same Sigma platform as the sedan, and has the same wheelbase, but it’s lower, wider and a bit shorter in overall length.
