The SEMA Show is all about excess – be that for the appearance and performance of the tuned cars or the…upgraded booth models.
And there seems to be plenty of that going on with the 2012 Cadillac CTS-V Coupe created by “The D3 Group”, which will be displayed at Toyo Tire U.S.A.’s booth at the Las Vegas aftermarket show.
The car is nicknamed Le Monstre as a homage to the 1950 Cadillac Coupe Series 61 that competed in the 24 Hours of LeMans in 1950, piloted by American driver Briggs Cunningham.
The monster CTS-V Coupe is motivated by a heavily modified version of the stock car’s 564HP 6.2-liter LSA V8 enlarged to 7.0-liter (427 cubic-inches) and featuring upgraded internals. It delivers a whopping 1,001-horses and 1,000 lb. ft. of torque.
The coupe’s suspension and chassis have also been upgraded while the car rolls on new 20-inch wheels shod in Toyo Proxes T1R UHP summer tires size 275/30ZR20 at the front and 345/25ZR20 at the rear.
On the outside, the CTS-V Coupe gains a sinister-looking matte black wrap by Wraptivo and a custom wide-body.
More details on the car will be released next week.
