That, good sir, is not funny. Not funny at all.

And do not confuse this car with the CTS-V. That will be a different animal all together and likely see the LT4.

And I reserve judgment that what is under the hood of the car in these photos is not an LT1. There is a bit of room under the hood of our ATS and the LT1 would certainly make this a car to choose over the M3/M4. And that would be even less funny than the LF3.
LT1 is more powerful. For marketing, this turbo 6 makes more sense than the LT1 I agree. Would have been great to have a Caddy version of the Camaro

Great car but I really dont think the hp will go up. I like when GM is ahead of the game on HP numbers but thats me.
