What will it offer over the CTS? Well, probably better driving dynamics & fuel economy, plus a nicer interior. That and the fact that its new while the CTS is getting a little old. I'd also expect the CTS to get a significant price hike when the next generation of CTS comes in.
Yeah I meant 2.5, just put the wrong number. I get what your saying about a "fresh" car still how would you take them bringing out say a new camaro base model with alot nicer interior, better driving dynamics but say a 75hp less 4 cylinder as the base for the same price as the year before. I would have to say that owning my CTS has been nice but the gas mileage sucks and it rides like crap. Still they may get old but even at 6 years old it still gets alot of compliments, I think my 6 year cts looks fresher and nicer then about 60% of the new cars for sale at the lots now

Since the turbo regal runs 16's it won't be hard to improve on that, but if it runs anything slower then a 14.8 then i won't be impressed.
