The ATS is on its way, and it may be joined by a new soft-top convertible, too. At...

General Motors has made huge inroads in China, and now, those inroads have grown a bit wider: yesterday at the 2011 Shanghai Auto Show, GM launched its smartphone app for China's OnStar subscribers.

Back in February, reports started circling that Cadillac would be doing away with the previous 3.0-liter V-6 and replacing it with the 3.6-liter V-6 in the 2012 SRX, and today, it's official: the 300-horsepower LFX engine will be available. The larger V-6 adds 35 horsepower and 37 pound feet of...

The profile. Those B-pillars! Your eyes may never recover. This 2003 Cadillac CTS Sedan certainly won't. But some unlucky soul may just end up owning the sawzall-bred monstrosity you see above, as it's up for sale on eBay Motors. According to the seller, pamanajack (no apparent relation to the...

We haven't heard much from Jewel in a while, and many of us were beginning to think that she might've headed off to a retirement Vanagon somewhere in Alaska, bringing her chapter in American pop music (and her brief footnote in American poetry) to an end.

You thought the Cadillac CTS-V was bad-ass? You're right, but the CTS-V Black Diamond is bad-asser. Or, as Cadillac puts it, it's a "finely crafted, tailored tuxedo." We like our description better.
