Replying to: arby1 (Nov 20, 2006 8:14 am) If you pay attention to the yellow lights, and don't try to run the red lights you wont need a spray to hide your license plates. You might even save yourself a major accident, which photoblocker wont do. Replies to this message: arby1 (Nov 20, 2006 7:39 pm)

#6534 of 6582 2.8L vs 3.6L CTS by pao Dec 15, 2006 (11:45 am)
ok looking at a certified used 06.....so what are the pros and cons between the two V-6s, honestly looking at the sport & lux package on a 2.8L model......   the car will be used mainly for highway trips...vice local...

Replying to: pao (Dec 15, 2006 11:45 am) I think you give up enough horsepower and torque with the 2.8 that it would make the car a lot less fun to drive and own. From experience I can tell you the 3.6 is perfect for the car. It has great power at low rpms. On the other hand you should get better highway mileage than the 3.6 which is definitely not too great. We average about 19 mpg. I also know the dealers cannot get rid of 2.8L cars if they have anything more than the base package. It only makes sense as a price leader. That's why you are interested, I assume, because of the price. It will be almost as good, but just dont expect to get much money for it when you want to sell it. Nobody wants them. My dealer would not even order new 2.8L cars for the lot, because the first ones in 2004 blew engines right and left. Presumably GM has fixed that problem.

#6537 of 6582 Certified CTS-V by sellaturcica Jan 18, 2007 (2:32 am)
Looks like you can find certified CTS-Vs in the mid 30s. I've been toying with the idea of a regular CTS or a Pontiac GTO for a while now-but I just seriously thought about the CTS-V: would you guys recommend against the V given the diff issues that have been remarked on here and in the press (I believe C&D wasn't too thrilled with how their V aged)? Mid 30s for a car like the V seems like a screaming deal if the car stays together.

Replying to: pao (Dec 27, 2006 6:34 am) I have not kept up with used prices, so it is hard to comment either way. If it is exactly what you want, spotless and low mileage, It seems pretty fair. Consider the new model is coming out soon. That car must have stickered for about $43000, was bought for about $37000, and it is now 2 years old. Assuming it has about 20000 miles, I might offer 60 percent of sticker, say $26,000 and see how you do. Fun car. Replies to this message: pao (Jan 19, 2007 6:12 am)

Replying to: panzer (Jan 18, 2007 12:18 pm) actually it has about 14K on it..so very low mileage.....still on the lot...doesnt seem to be moving...so am going to look at it this weekend and see what they say.....
