Just heard of this thing. Its just a lil compact which I'd probably never fit into... but seems the luxury market has a new high power player. Being its turbo and a compact it will probably be pretty easy to make lots more power and it weighs nothing probably.

Interesting what's going on in the performance luxury market these days.

I must have missed something because I read 380HP not 470HP

This story is showing a 470HP direct injected V8 now. Lots of conflicting reports on twin turbo V6 or Direct Injected V8.

Seems 470HP V8 or 380HP Twin Turbo V6 are the possibilities. Stories going both ways popping up all over the internet, and some are mixing numbers. Either one in a compact would be fun though.

I saw 380hp

Sorry about the confusion. Some of my info came from comments on cadillacs facebook page. Not a trustworthy source. lol Seems the v8 or TT V6 options are still on the table, but may be leaning to the TT V6 at 380HP. I'm a lot less excited about it if that is the case.

It will probably weigh 5,000 lbs.

That's hyperbole, but I do think, without even seeing the car, that it will weigh way too much.

I just don't like the look...... even 600hp still ugly....
