2011 Cadillac CTS-V Coupe Review
Disregarding the tony black slacks he’s wearing and the wet garage floor, Dave Leone is on his knees. “Look at this,” he says, shoving his hand between the top of a Cadillac CTS Coupe’s rear tire and the upper fender lip. “I call this the ‘Leone Finger Test.’ If three fingers fit, the gap’s too big.

2011 Cadillac CTS Coupe Review
Introduction
The 2011 Cadillac CTS Coupe is a looker.

2009 Cadillac XLR Review
Introduction
Like gourmet coffee from McDonald’s, a pair of Christian Dior running shoes or Jack Black as a leading man, there are some things that at first blush just don’t seem to go together. Cadillac is a carmaker synonymous with traditional land yachts and blinged-out SUVs, but few would associate it with a high-performance, dashingly styled two-seat luxury drop top. Yet the 2009 Cadillac XLR is just such an automobile, and this retractable-roof roadster...
