This month’s 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show (Nov. 18-30) will play host to the world premiere of the all-new Cadillac ATS-V and the facelifted Chrysler 300.

We’re still not sure, though, if GM will show the sedan, the coupe or both body styles of the ATS-V in LA.

Cadillac’s new performance models are squarely aimed at the BMW M3 sedan and M4 Coupe, as well as the other similar proposals from Audi and its RS5, Mercedes’ C63 AMG and Lexus’ RC-F.

America’s answer to the German establishment is believe to boast a tweaked version of the CTS V Sport’s 3.6L twin-turbo V6 putting out more than 420hp connected to either a 7-speed manual or an eight-speed auto driving the rear axle.

The other LA world premiere we received confirmation about is the facelifted 2015 Chrysler 300, with the big question here being whether the muscular Hemi V8 SRT model will continue to exist in the range as we’ve heard conflicting information on the matter. Either way, the entire range will go under the knife gaining some of the newer styling elements introduced on the 200.
