The 2011 Cadillac CTS Coupe is powered by a 3.6L direct-injected V6 engine making 304-hp and 273 lb-ft of torque. Buyers can opt for a 6-speed manual transmission or a Hydra-Matic 6L50 6-speed automatic transmission with Driver Shift Control. A 556-hp CTS-V Coupe will join the lineup in the later part of 2010.

The CTS Coupe will share engine choices with the current Cadillac CTS sedan. Both vehicles use a 304 horsepower (227 kW) 3.6-liter V6 (the base 3.0-liter V6 won’t be offered in the Coupe – at least initially), and are available with either rear- or all-wheel drive.

For all you two-door addicts that have longed for a CTS but couldn’t handle the family-friendly nature of the sedan, feast your eyes on the 2011 Cadillac CTS Coupe ($TBA). Coming standard with a 3.6L V-6 and six-speed manual transmission — a six-speed automatic with Driver Shift Control is an option — this stylish Caddy also offers either 18- or 19-inch rims, integrated iPod connectivity, a pop-up navigation system, Bluetooth, remote start, a rear camera system, a 5.1-channel Bose audio system, LED vertical lighting, touch-pad operated doors, and a RWD powertrain. If that isn’t enough to entice you, simply wait til later in 2010, when the beastly 556hp V-Series arrives.
