Must be American week in Autocar, A feature on the Excellent new CTS-V Coupe with the ZR-1 engine now for sale along with the wagon for £69k not cheap but cheaper than a new ZR-1!!!!

I saw this at the Paris Motor show and it really looked nice smile

Autocar also have said GM looking at a dealer in London as well as Manchester. Not sure if that means Corvette sale in London too??

Isn't the engine an LFA not an LS9?

Designation is LSA, it's essentially an LS9 with a reduced pulley and modified valve gear. Power is just over 550Bhp as opposed to 640.

I'm just getting up off the floor having been struck down by pages 32 and 33 from this week's Autocar.

The CTS-V coupe is almost £70,000.

The CTS Sport Wagon (3.5 litre V6) is £47,500.

I should think the first year depreciation on either of these will make a Maserati GT look like a sensible purchase!

I would love one but at that price they will be lucky to sell the odd one! The wagon is as expensive as Bmw but you are getting something far nicer looking. The real killer is the price of one in 3 years I would think £18-23K if you are lucky.
