A convertible version of the upcoming Cadillac CTS coupe is stillborn, new reports find. With both Infiniti planning a G37 convertible and Lexus an IS hardtop, and the Germans already offering its convertibles in the BMW 3-series drop-top and Audi ’s A4, it seems Cadillac will miss its chance to battle in the competitive market.

“This issue of a convertible is one of the very rare times where we decline the offer to comment,” said Cadillac spokesperson David Caldwell, according the Inside Line. While this isn’t a flat-out denial, it doesn’t answer any questions either. Instead, it seems Cadillac will offer a more utilitarian wagon version of the CTS. The only convertibles in the luxury maker’s range are the flagship hardtop XLR and XLR-V.
