    This is still remotely based on the CTS, while the DTM car shares nothing with the production cars...

    I didn't read the article or know anything about this car, but I don't think the aero kit and the roll cage comes standard with my CTS-V.

    no, and its engine is based on the C5-R engine. but i'm pretty sure it shares its basic chassis architecture with the production model.

    It doesn't matter now because Caddy has pulled the plug on their race team.

    the core unitbody was kept(but chopped off like 3 inches from the bottom), the car had to use stock components in suspension parts(uprights and hubs I believe)...so on and so forth....still much more production based than DTM car....
