The 2015 Cadillac CTS-V Coupe will be produced in a limited-edition series of 500 cars and will become available in the second-half of this year. The coupe will share the high-performance technology of other V-series predecessors in the 2010-2014 model years. Tech like Magnetic Ride Control, Brembo braking, and a supercharged V8 growling out 556 horsepower.

The CTS-V Coupe is a 2+2 luxury coupe and the special edition will have an Ebony interior treatment exclusive to the V. Recaro performance seating, metal pedals, Midnight Sapele wood trim, a microfiber suede-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, a dark-finish V grille, and satin graphite wheels ahead of red brake calipers finish the package.
