The only downside? Unlike the previous CTS-V, the 2016 won't offer a manual transmission. Instead, an eight-speed automatic is the only transmission. Thankfully, it sends all that power to the rear wheels. No all-wheel-drive requirement here.

Cadillac isn’t offering a stick shift for American enthusiasts. The only transmission will be General Motors’ new eight-speed automatic with paddle shifters. It’s 28 pounds lighter than the six-speed automatic it replaces, it shifts faster, and it fits into the same space behind the longitudinal V-8. Overall weight is 4,145 pounds, about 135 pounds lighter than the previous CTS-V. Want a manual performance Cadillac? Then you’ll have to downshift and downsize to the 2016 Cadillac ATS-V, with its six-speed manual option. The ATS-V goes on sale by early summer of 2015.
