ATS Coupe put on hold.
So i was browsing by subscriptions on youtube and this came up.
This kinda sucks but i do understand to make a better product but not to increase share value. How is this supposed to compete with the 3series bmw. Well just gives me more time to save for ATSV coupe |

This is a mistake, I would atleast still offer the coupe version. Granted a wagon would only sell in Europe assuming Europeans would buy the ATS. But here in the states it should atleast be a sedan, coupe and a V variant of both versions.

As long as they don't put the V on hold I'm fine.

Cadillac spokesperson just said essentially that MotorTrend is full of it.

I want a coupe. No, maybe the sedan. No wait... a convertible would look sweet! :seesaw:
Wait, did somebody say wagon?

Coupes don't sell all that well, and convertibles fare far even worse.

Well close to mid decade is a decent time to wait i guess but still i dont think that anything should be put on hold if u wanna compete with the 3series. The more i look at the ATS the more i am loving the look of it. Car and driver had a underbody pic of the ATS turbo model that was quite interesting.
