2008 Cadillac CTS arrived

The 2008 CTS arrived in Chicagoland dealerships this week and has a base price of $32,990 -- $540 less than the 2007 model with the same engine. The all-new model comes standard with a 3.6-liter V-6 engine that delivers 263 horsepower, but for an additional power boost, you can opt for the 3.6-liter Direct Injection engine that delivers 304 horsepower.

For 2008, the CTS takes previously optional features -- such as 17-inch wheels, a Bose eight-speaker surround sound system, Stabilitrak and tire pressure monitoring -- and makes them standard fare.
