Leak:2010 Cadillac CTS Wagon

The goodfellas over at Jalopnik have unearthed what appears to be the first image of the the CTS wagon which is set to have its official unveiling at the Paris Motor Show. Additionally the leaked image also contains some details about the first wagon variant in CTS history although we have our reservations on how accurate this information is.style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">According to the leaked image the 3.6L direct-injection V-6 VVT engine used in the sedan will also find its way to the wagon, but the 2.8L V-6 will be replaced with a 3.0 liter version and they will be available with either rear or all-wheel drive. Pricing is reported to start at $37,500 – that's over €5K more than the sedan and will go up to $42,500 for the top of the line mode.

See below for full details from the leaked image.

BMW 6-series with a striking red livery and once again sporting the super

A couple of days a go we presented the extravagantly styled AG Excalibur- a quite unique vehicle created by Lithuanian Audronis Gestautas which amazed us even further when we found the Mercedes CL-class hiding underneath. There were those that liked it, there were those that hated it, but either way it was a car you just couldn't ignore, so we are more than happy to find that Audronis has not limited his skills to just one vehicle.

The latest project pictured here shows a much more modestly styled BMW 6-series with a striking red livery and once again sporting the super-sized 30inch wheels. As you can see this project is instantly recognisable as a 6-series based body kit and one that could possibly satisfy even the most fiercest critic of Audronis.
