CTSv engine shots from NYC auto show

Link to 3 CTSv pics

These are from the NYC auto show this past week.

CTSv looks pretty cool under the hood, I like how its says LS6 on the strut tower brace

IMO (of course) it looks terrible from those pictures. **** looks like it was randomly placed for no reason and that whole fuel rail cover thing is hideous. Although those pictures arnt the best, I probably wont have as negative of an opinion if I saw it in person, but I do hope they clean it up a lil.

Cool

The hose next to the intake looks like a total bottleneck. Could be just the angle though.

Looks schweet.

personally, the clutter doesn't really bother me too to much, but I'm have a feeling most people wold be more impressed if they covered the bay in plastic to cover all that stuff..

heh, thats about as bad as the 4th gen engine bay..

Looks good to me. A domestic 4door car with this kind of performance potential from RWD and V8 power hasn't ever been seen. I hope GM prices it well to compete with M3's, S4's and, X-Type S's because thats whare it would stack up the best!

If the 400HP LS6 isn't enough power I'm sure there will some Lingenfelter 427 CTS cars out soon enough.

I havnt kept up with the CTSv that much. THose are RWD arent they. That would be a shame to have an LS6 in a FWD car.

Yes they are RWD with a 400HP LS6, 6 speed manual, IRS, and 3.73 rear
