2009 Cadilac CTS WOW.

I thought I would check out the CTS today. WOW was I impressed with the entire car. Fit and finish in and out was as good as I have seen. And I did have a 2007 Acura TL Type-S which is 100% loaded and had an awesome interior. The CTS is worth looking at. I was mainly looking at it to get an idea of the quality the Camaro will have.

I have also looked at the Pontiac G8 GT a couple times and was also very impressed with the entire car.

I am SHOCKED I am going to buy an American car again!


WAY TO GO GM. THANKYOU VERY MUCH.

NOW GM, MAKE A LOADED SS/RS $35K.

That means even more since it was competing against the unbelievably well executed Malibu.

Think about that for a second, GM had 2 cars that were worthy of car of the year. That hasn't happened in a long time.

Yep. Was trying to get my in laws into a CTS. They weren't too keen on Caddies since they were "for the older folks." But, as soon as I got them to the dealership, they were floored asking all sorts of questions.

Yep my 80 year old parents don't care for the new Cadilac style, but the new CTS looks WAY better then the older one.

I am very happy to buy QUALITY American again. COOL.

I LOVE how the CTS looks. If the CTS-V was close to my budget, I'd buy it as an alternative to Camaro if I had to. Man, it's sweet!

I want to see how these cars do in the long run where quality is concerned. GM will get people back when they can regularily demonstrate the ability to get 150,000 miles on a car without anything going wrong (maintenance aside of course).
