A piano is useful for many things. For one,
it's good at being fancy. As for getting you down the road, it's
probably best to leave that to the Cadillac ATS.

2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe Shown To Dealers
The new ATS has been a very successful car for Cadillac. In addition to racking up awards left and right (including nearly taking our 2013 Best Car To Buy award), the ATS has risen to become Cadillac's second-best-selling model behind the SRX, ahead of the larger XTS and CTS sedans. Soon, it may get a new coupe version to further stoke the fire.
Rumors of coupe and wagon versions of the ATS have been brewing since before the car's official unveiling, but so far, little has come of the speculation. That may have changed last week.
According to a report from GM Inside News, dealers were shown the upcoming ATS coupe during an event last week, alongside the redesigned Cadillac Escalade. Reports from attendees say the ATS won't follow the CTS Coupe's dramatic departure from the CTS sedan's shape, instead favoring a shared set of lines, but with longer door openings and a revised roof line.
Considering the CTS Coupe's niche-market targeting, that's probably a good thing for the broader-spectrum ATS. Unique and funky looks from chunky, wide C pillars are great, but they didn't translate to large sales volumes for Cadillac (and weren't intended to). A more typical coupe design should fare well for the ATS.
Cadillac hasn't formally confirmed the ATS Coupe yet, nor has it revealed any potential timing for such a car, but according to GMI, the car will launch in mid-2014.
Other rumored variants of the ATS include a high-performance ATS-V version, as well as a wagon and a convertible.

Cadillac mulling CTS Coupe successor after all
The 2014 Cadillac CTS made a big splash last week at the New York Auto Show, but now that we've seen the sedan, we can start to wonder about whether coupe and wagon versions are in the cards. According to Edmunds, Cadillac is at least considering bringing back the CTS Coupe for a second generation, which seems like an even better chance since the brand's global marketing director, Jim Vurpillat, was quoted as saying that the car was the top-selling luxury coupe in the industry.
Of course, this goes against reports we heard last year that Caddy's coupe and wagon would live on just not under the CTS name, but the interview with Vurpillat has us hopeful for a next-generation CTS Coupe. If it does come to fruition, we would expect the new two-door to have a largely unique exterior design like the current CTS Coupe, to echo that of intended rivals like the Mercedes-Benz E-Class Coupe and even the high-dollar BMW 6 Series.
