There are no plans for a 'vert, something about the chassis not set up for it, or too expensive too develop. Maybe a wagon version of the V, though.

The ATS might be shown at the Detroit show next week and it will/can come in sedan,coupe and convertible variants.

No, it does not - not quite anyway. The CTS-V uses the same LSA from the CTS-V sedan. A supercharged 6.2L.

Something looks off with the rear quarter, too smooth for my liking, like it's not been finished yet. Props to them for doing something like that.

I like the look from the front and back, the side look doesnt really work out for me, looks like some sort of hatchback or dodge caliber looking thing.

the inspiring and reassuring aspect of this car, imo, is the design... the powertrain, as impressive as it is, is nothing new for Detroit. take a huge displacement engine, perhaps even add a s/c, and viola.
but the design, gives hope for USA

I must admit I love the CTS-v sedan and coupe. Performing with much more expensive cars and still having luxury. If I was only a rich old man haha.
