I actually like the lines much better on the CTS than the Accord (with the exception of the C-pillars). Wait til the CTS-V Coupe is out though. That's gonna be a mean car (IMO).

And isn't the 305 hp motor the base model? I thought there were a couple of options available (or will be available).

It seems like only the V6 and possible turbo diesel option will be available. The sedan weighs in at 3,861 lbs, MT I cannot see the coupe weighing much less, really let down, I would rather have cts-v sedan. 6.0l V8

I think that thing looks ugly as hell! Way to many flat body panels on it. Makes it look like a tank, IMHO

The CTS sedan starts around $33,000 so the coupe should be pretty close to that.

definitely too many flat body panels... even the windows seems to have no curvature (especially the rear). i gotta give it to the honda as far as looks go

but the cts may look good in a camo paint scheme and some artillery...

The cts coupe will arrive around the end of 2009. the v6 model will put out around 300 horse and cost around 40,000. Cadillac is also making a cts-v coupe putting out around 550 hp for around 50,000.

i think the fender vents look good only on a certain cars.. e.g. BMW M3

but i agree with you on the cts.. fender vents are a no no
