2008 Cadillac CTS V6 DI

This week on Wheel Talk Coast to Coast – we’re checking out the new Cadillac CTS V6 DI – a 4-door midsize sedan that lives up to the Cadillac brand.

And let me tell you: this very capable sports sedan will keep up with any competitor in its class!

The new Cadillac CTS power plant is a 3.6-liter V-6 pumping-out 304-horsepower with the aid of direct-fuel-injection that is coupled with a 6-speed automatic transmission and all-speed traction control

This road-worthy performance sedan also features “Stabilitrack” – General Motors’ electronic-stabilization control, sports suspension and anti-lock disc brakes.

The luxury of this CTS DI performance sedan is reflected throughout the cabin with leather seats featuring 10-way memory adjustments, dual climate control, AM/FM radio, satellite radio, CD player and mp3 player driven through an 8-speaker Bose speaker system.

The new generation styling of this sporty Cadillac has a distinct horizontal marquee grill, allowing the low-slung front air dam to appear even lower and moving while it’s parked in your driveway.

The overall lines of this 5-passenger luxury sedan – complete with 17-inch wheels and chrome front fender-vents – give a futuristic speedster-look to the entire vehicle.

Gas mileage for this American performance sedan is surprising with and estimated 17-miles per gallon in the city and an amazing 26-miles per gallon on the highway.
