CTS V Coupe?

Interesting that this release would use this model designation.

Does this really reference the "Vsport" coupe it are they really talking about a "V-series" coupe?

Back when this was posted, I didn't know that the CTS V series cars for 2014 would be carry over of the second generation CTS and not V series versions of the new third generation CTS.

While the Vsport is based on the new third generation CTS for 2014, the V series 2014 CTS's are second generation CTS's.

The other new threads here seem to say that the third generation CTS will not get a full blow V series version until 2016. I hope they really mean 2015. I think the supercharged LT4 in the new ZO6 would be a good motor for a new V.
