Saw these two Cadillac ATS's on i96, both had manufacturers plates on them. I'm guessing they were '16 models? But the rears were very different, I'm guessing different trims?

Thank slow traffic for these last two pics, :p.

Quad exhaust + more aggressive aero = V testing??? I have no idea. I miss seeing the cars early in Michigan. Also, 96 blows.

Oooh I really like how the light sweeps forward here. Separates it from the first gen CTS and the other earlier Art & Science while not being a complete departure. from the design language.

Yep, I left at 7:16, arrived at 8:15ish. Too many accidents, plus Lansing traffic.

But the one with the large brake light looked gorgeous.

Holy shit. Those exhaust pipes, that tail on the back. Those are ATS-Vs.

Are there? I frantically looked for any identifying signs or badges, all I saw was the ATS badge.

Amen to that. I love retro/throwback designs.

That little duck tail on the trunk and those quad exhausts are dead giveaways. Those are ATS-V models.

The sedan is pretty easy to tell because of that massive duck tail spoiler that's part of the optional Aero package on the Vs. The coupe (and sedan) have quad exhaust tips and those V exclusive spilt 5-spoke wheels.

Thanks! My wife made it. Though she now refuses to make me a Mario ? Block. It I thought it would be epic to have one in any future second car.

ATS-V testing! Awesome.

Oh yeah. But they didn't really 'unleash' anything, unfortunately. They kept a consistent speed, which is all I needed for pics, :).
