Awesome looking machine. They did a great job on this one. Don't understand the complaint in the article about how the rear looks, looks fine to me. Can we change the title so the v-sport doesn't confuse any more than it has?

Next we should start naming cars by trim levels. Like a Chevrolet SS or something like that.

So no CTS-V exists yet, correct? Maybe that will get the LT1.
Just wait till Cadillac throws numbers in there. Introducing the 2020 Cadillac CT5 VSport and CT5 V Series .....

back to the topic at hand, the ATS-V looks awesome except for the ass end. that spoiler looks awful on there IMO. It looks like an after thought, like "hey we need to emphasize even more that this is a sporty model...lets tack on a duck tail spoiler"

That assumes it serves no aerodynamic function and is there simply for looks. I would be very surprised if that were the case.

Im sure it serves plenty of purpose, but that was my first reaction when I saw it was that it looks like a tacked on after thought

Looks good all the way to the B-pillar. From there back its kind of plain. Kind of always been the issue with the ATS and CTS though. That B Pillar window is way to big. It looks ridiculous.

It looks like a souped up Prius, Jetta to me. If this is what they are doing to American Muscle I will be going old school !

The ATS isn't a muscle car.

Although I said earlier I thought it looked nice, and i stand by that statement, I have to agree with this as well.

One of my complaints about the ATS coupe is that from the side it was kind of boring, and does looks like a sporty civic coupe. Coming at you, it looks awesome, but going by you...not so much.

I'd rather have this in the sedan model b/c I think it looks better.

All that aside, I still think this car is bad@ss

That's why they are forgoing putting a v8 in it. It won't be a M3 killer with a v8

The M3 was recently a V8, so I don't see how a V8 ATS-V wouldn't be an M3/M4 killer.
