There's a new version of the still-new Cadillac CTS coming here to SEMA according to the folks at the General and it's got some more horses under the hood. That's the good news. The bad news? It's not the "V" series version. Instead, it's what the luxe brand's calling the "Sport" edition. This new angular beast gets a 3.6-liter 304 HP V6 under the hood and is the world's biggest tease since we heard there were nude shots of Angeline Jolie out there somewhere on the interwebs. Seriously, we scoured the web for like three hours looking for them, and all we found were a buncha fakes. Anyway, full press release after the jump.
