Looking at the both of them, the CTS front suspension seems to be easily adaptable to the V chassis without a clean paper reengineering (much like the 4th gen Camaro's running front suspension change).

Overall it seems the V & sigma are very very close afterall. I need to get a detailed underside look of a Catera (fuel tank in the same place as Sigma) to be sure.

Any input from the engineering and tecnical side?

 

Hope this helps GuionM

btw here are some close up pics of the CTS

No, I need to either crawl under one or get a picture of one. I want to check out the floorpan on a model with the forward fueltank. The only other "V" cars with this is the Holden UTE and Statesman.

Unfortunately, my next trip down under is at least a few months away, so Catera will have to do.
