Vehicle Type Mid-size Performance Sedan / Coupe / Wagon The CTS-V is said to be something of a luxurious and comfortable rocket thruster on wheels. History/Description Packed with a 556-horsepower engine, track-validated chassis upgrades and engineering tweaks from the motorsport world, the second-generation Cadillac CTS-V is an A

It's the thunderous applause after a Pavarotti encore. It's the foot-stomps and hand-claps from the chorus of 'We Will Rock You.' It's a Delta V rocket slipping the surly bounds of Earth's gravity embrace. A frontal assault on the laws of physics. It's the sound of the 2016 Cadillac CTS-V's 640-hp supercharged V8 with the throttle pinne

Three generations into its V Series family of high performance sedans, the all-new 2016 Cadillac CTS-V pushes the boundaries of what's possible for a modern luxury car. Longer and leaner than the vehicle it replaces, the CTS-V has also matured, as evidenced by the removal of its manual transmission option and the newly opulent interior that is st

A frantic orange light on the dashboard catches my attention briefly, milliseconds later, I hear the brrrz of the tires touching ripple strip and find my attention thrust sharply back to where it belongs… the circuit. Electronics, they tell us, make better catch fences than Mosport’s concrete barriers. Not just any circuit, either, Ca

Faro, Portugal – The decree of “4MATIC for all” for the Mercedes-AMG lineup of luxury performance machines a few years back was not met with universal enthusiast cheers, even though Mercedes-Benz’s long-time all-wheel-drive system was a very popular option across Canada in pretty much every market and vehicle line. The fact that Mercedes-AMG has si

The following is a list of things us single guys like about Valentine’s day: 1) 2) 3) 4) That’s right. Nothing. Up yours, Valentine’s Day: you’re just the worst. I have to spend your entirety looking at happy couples, pictures of happy couples, selfies of happy couples, and watching happy selfie-couples do happy-couple things whil

The rich and snobbish often say that new money is the worst type. They say that rapidly acquiring wealth commonly ends in fashion disaster. Taste, they opine, is earned over generations. I'm a little less classist than this and reject the bourgeois elitism apparent in such attitudes – then I looked through a bunch of celebrity car photos and dec

ESTORIL, Portugal – Being fast was never a problem for BMW’s M5 super sport sedan. And with more power and (slightly) less weight, eye-watering speed isn’t an issue now either.

Cadillac Live is a websi

Gas prices are at a record low. So low in fact that all the people who sold their Hummers are being checked into support centres right across this Great White North of ours. We’ve seen no shortage of articles helping you save fuel and help the planet (including just yesterday on this very site – 5 Ways to Save Fuel NOW! ). Some people, however,

I guess you could say that right off the bat, I like the idea of the Mercedes E43 sedan; a mid-size car with a highly tuned, but downsized engine compared to others in the line-up. It reminds me of great Benz classics like the 190E, whose ultra-high-strung four-cylinder put many other cars with much bigger engines to shame on the race track and e
