2008 Cadillac CTS
What do you guys think about the New CTS? I think it'll look great in black. Dont know if I would personally buy one.

We have been looking to replace our sedan for the last year or so and I have been waiting to see this new CTS (especially since the good reviews of the STS with the direct injection v6). Thus far have been most impressed with the 335 but the price and tight rear seating puts it on hold.
Although it looks good on paper the real test is driving... especially back to back comparisons with the strong competition from Lexus, BMW, and Infinity.

Looks pretty good. Big improvement over the outgoing model, both inside and out. But, the front end to me, looks a little overdone, the rear doors look awfully small (how much room is back there?), and the rear window looks awfully small. Nonetheless, a nice effort by Cadillac. I'd be interested to see how it stacks up against the G35, which, to me, seems to be its most direct competitor (size, price, performance).

In one word, Awesome!
We had one in our shop that was doing the rounds with the GM brass. The quality is way up, on par with Lexus. The fit and finish is a huge improvement, but not quite up to Lexus standards. I love the overall look of the car, however, I don't like the new front fascia. Something about the grille and bumper that don't work for me when I saw it in person.
I never liked the old CTS. Looks, interior, quality, fit and finish were all terrible and it was sad to call it a Cadillac. However, I still love driving the CTS-V, I would just never own one.
The new '08 CTS is a winner, I would definitely consider buying one!
