Replying to: knotem (Nov 27, 2007 3:20 pm) If you remember, the PDW option wasn't one of the original options. It came to life (late Sep 07) only after people started requesting the car without the sunroof (as I was told by the dealer), but wanted the other bells and whistles included in their orders. When you look at what the PDW package offers and requires, it's simply a scaled down version of the Premium Lux Collection. It's already too late for me but I hope it changes in time for your order, and the benefit of others who want to go that direction. If they're wise, they will make the change. thebug...

Great news. Last Monday, I got an email from my dealer that my CTS with Prem Lux and B20 and P63 had been accepted to be built by GM. Today, I get an email that it is scheduled to be built the week of 12/3. He said he will be able to provide a VIN in a couple of days. My dealer believes I will take delivery before Xmas which would be wonderful. I've downloaded the manuals so that I will be up to speed when I take delivery. I am very excited. This is my first new car since my purchase of and earlier Motor Trend car of the year - a 2000 model year Lincoln LS V8. -CB |

Replying to: taxesquire (Nov 26, 2007 1:31 pm) This is NOT at all a bad thing -- I drove in to the dealer in a 2005 Audi A6 with 18" wheels and the then standard suspension set up. I then tested the CTS FE2, AWD, bla bla bla. Got in my car and drove over the same route I had just driven the CTS. The CTS was softer, it floated about 1/2 of a suspension cycle more than the A6. The damping, apparently was the issue. The FE2 version allows a down, up, down and half an up/down over a "whoop-de-doo" that the A6 only allows a down, up, return to normal motion. This is NOT meant to suggest the CTS is not a fine sheen. It simply means it is apparently an American interpretation of a Sport suspension. It is not sufficiently damped in this league -- I could live with it and probably after a time come to think the Germans were stiff and harsh. Today, I feel the CTS is too much like my first water bed. Alas, no FE3 offered with AWD. The springs remain the same -- the differences ARE the dampers. Drive it like you live. |
