Cadillac is no stranger to coupes, but the idea of an edgy, wedgy race-bred performance machine with one of the most high-tech, powerful powertrains under its long hood is the sort of thing that would make company founder Henry Leland roll over in his grave. Perhaps a few dozen times. But this is the Cadillac of the 21st century, a reborn brand under a reborn (or at least reshaped) General Motors. Cadillac, in many ways, might be the most remarkably turned-around automaker to ever live, even if its transformation is far from complete. Its showpiece is this aggressive two-door, the Cadillac CTS-V Coupe, for it represents nearly everything that Cadillac forgot about 30 years ago when it, and the rest of GM, stopped producing relevant and groundbreaking cars. Both barely survived.
