What we have here is our best look yet at the convertible destined to replace the Audi A4 Cabrio. It's the A5 Convertible, but spy photographers have managed to do one better and snap the S5 version at what appears to be a photoshoot. Without any camouflage, the new S5 Convertible clearly exhibits all of the S5 Coupe's exterior accoutrement like a chiseled front fascia and larger wheels, and we assume it will also carry the coupe's powerful 354-hp V8. Sporting a cloth tap in lieu of a more expensive and heavy folding hard top, the A5/S5 Convertible is expect to take over Audi's drop top duties when it arrives in the very near future, either at the LA Auto Show next month or Detroit Auto Show in January.[Source: World Car Fans]Permalink�|�Email this�|�Comments Complete news at...

The Cadillac CTS-V has already proven that its impressive power stats translate nicely to the track with sub-8 minute 'Ring times and a 0-60 time of 3.9 seconds. The General is also positioning its new 556-hp halo sedan as a performance bargain, having announced today that it will go on sale around November 1 with a starting price of just $59,995. That's more than $40,000 cheaper than the less powerful XLR-V, and we'd argue the CTS-V is more attractive with its v2.0 Art and Science styling and works much better as a daily driver with its back seat and usable trunk. The CTS-V also makes the larger $80,900 STS-V sedan completely irrelevant considering its 86-hp power advantage, improved aesthetics and quicker moves. Even the vaunted BMW M5 with its higher starting price of $83,900 and less powerful 500-hp 5.0L V10 engine can't touch the CTS-V in price or performance.
