In case you haven’t heard, BMW recently pulled the wrapper off the M3 GTS, a lightweight version of the M3 that’s very similar in spirit the old E46 M3 CSL. Except now it’s called the GTS for some reason. No matter, it still goes very sideways, does burnouts and makes a lot of noise, which we think is nice. Doesn’t look like that ugly rear wing is providing too much downforce, though.

Bob Lutz of General Motors has announced that the Cadillac CTS-V Sport Wagon – long rumored to appear – will actually become a real production model. We foresee the wagon becoming more of a staple in America because of the ongoing economic changes, which makes this is a huge step for American automakers, who haven’t really capitalized on the wagon market yet. Though, it’s going to be a very special consumer who’s interested in a wagon that clocks around 4-second 0-60 mph times.

The performance of the CTS-V Sport Wagon will be on par with its sedan counterpart and will share the same 556 horsepower 6.2-liter supercharged V-8. No word yet from Lutz on when we will see these cars on the road. [Source: leftlanenews]

Before there was the Corolla, Camry, Highlander or any of those other cars Toyota has managed to sell a hagillion copies of, there was the 4Runner. Now, 25 years after the first car made its way into showrooms, Toyota is debuting the fifth generation of their body-on-frame SUV. They should be hitting dealers in the coming weeks, and Toyota is expecting to move 35,000 of them in the next 12 months. Not a bad target, but then again they probably sell that many Corollas before lunch on the average Wednesday.

While the last generation 4Runner had a standard V-6 and optional V-8, this car is launching in a very different climate and therefore gets a 2.7-liter four-cylinder and 4.0-liter six-cylinder. It shouldn’t be wanting for power — the new 270 hp V-6 produces 10 more hp than the outgoing V-8.

The base model will be the SR5, with the Trail and Limited sitting higher up the chain. The Trail is particularly of interest, as it is the most ruggedly equipped for off-road use. Case in point: it has a two-speed, lever-operated transfer case. That’s right, no buttons. How often do you see that these days? The Trail also has a host of off-road technologies, such as the Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (KDSS) that disconnects the stabilizer bars to allow more wheel travel at each corner. Think of it as a more affordable Land Rover. That’s no bad thing.

Prices start at $29,175 for the SR5 and $35,700 for the Trail.
