Catera
|
Working with a proven European aftermarket outfitter, Cadillac takes its entry-luxury sedan to an even higher level of fun and performance with the STEINMETZ Catera concept vehicle. |
|
Unveiled at the Chicago Auto Show 1999, the concept car features a host of performance and styling accessories from German-based customizer STEINMETZ Opel-Tuning, including a supercharger package that adds an impressive 84 more horsepower to Catera's standard 3.0-liter dual-overhead-cam V6 engine. |

"The STEINMETZ Catera is a stretch exercise, created in the spirit of other European prestige makes that explore the limits of performance," said Jay Spenchian, Catera brand manager. "STEINMETZ has brought a distinctive attitude to this Catera," adds Spenchian. |
|
"True to its reputation for injecting higher performance into Opel vehicles, STEINMETZ started with Catera's exceptional ride, handling and control and turned up the power and excitement levels another notch. The result is a car that tests how far we can take Catera in the performance arena." |
