CTS-V question

Is the CTS-V a one year deal or will they continue to produce them over the next few years. I assume the LS1 will continue to be produced for the GTO and if they are going to continue producing the CTS-V I assume the LS6 will also continue to be produced.

Not a one-year deal for sure... however, the engine could be upgraded from the LS6 (scary proposition, eh?) if and when they switch to the Gen IV.

You mean LS7, right? I thought the LS6 was in there now.

Well, I think I worded it right....

If they goto another engine (Gen IV derivitive) it (the CTS-V) would be upgraded from the LS6 (which it currently has)....

I thought the word was that GTO, CTS-V, and maybe even SSR were getting the LS2?

Edit: I mean for '05 or '06 of course.

GTO = LS2
CTS-v = LS7
SSR = truck 6.0L (next Silverado SS engine)???

I have a question too!!

Is the CTS possible to be manufactured in RHD? Reason being the new CEO of Holden worked for Caddy as an engineer as was recently spotted driving a RHD CTS-V around.
