General Motors redesigned the popular Cadillac CTS for 2008. On January 13, 2008, at the North American International Auto Show, General Motors unveiled a Coupe version of the CTS. It offers sporting performance and unique styling.

The Cadillac CTS's success has been credited to its appearance in “The Matrix Reloaded”. It was featured extensively in the car chase sequence. This is the first time Cadillac has featured its products in a major film.

“The 3.6L SFI is equipped with a standard 3.6-liter, V6, 263-horsepower engine that achieves 16-mpg in the city and 25-mpg on the highway. A 6-speed manual transmission with overdrive is standard, and a 6-speed automatic transmission with overdrive is optional. The 3.6L SIDI is equipped with a standard 3.6-liter, V6, 304-horsepower engine that achieves 18-mpg in the city and 26-mpg on the highway. A 6-speed automatic transmission with overdrive is standard, and a 6-speed manual transmission with overdrive is optional.”

The exterior of the CTS receives a fine makeover for 2008. It’s become a bit rounder and certainly more elegant from its chrome trim. It actually looks bigger than before. The overall suspension design is unchanged, with aluminum upper and lower control arms up front. The design of the grille was pulled straight from Cadillac's sixteen concept cars some describes it as “there's a hint of forward movement throughout the design even while the car is standing still.”

The interior feels completely fresh yet still like a conventional Cadillac.

Overall, the success of the CTS is not only due to the exposure on a famous film. It delivers good performance, handsome styling and a luxurious interior, and that’s another reason for being successful. Exterior repair and modifications such as then there are problems of dents, paint, wheel alignment, changing of engine oil and their likes.
