I'm getting ready to buy a Thunder Gray DI with black interior. I think I would prefer a titanium interior better in the Thunder Gray but the car I am negotiating on the lot only has the black. Has anybody seen an downsides in the black interior in terms of showing dirt, scuff marks, etc? Anybody else bothered by the fact that the roof and pillars are titanium but the rest is black?

I don't know about scuff marks with a black interior but I do know that if you park your car outside during the summer , the seats may be too hot to sit on .

Go with the black. I'm probably biased, but have had a black interior in my previous two cars (my current is a '04 CTS-V) and it looks great and wears fine. Especially with wood accents. I don't think you will be bothered by the gray pillars.

I've ordered (and seen) the black interior (light platinum exterior). It looks great.
If there's any concern about it getting warm, order the ventilated seats (luxury package 2).

Mine is set-up with the same way, Thunder Grey/Ebony. It looks fine. I live in snow country. I put in some winter mats that trap snow/water. Only problem I've experienced so far is a salt mark on the lower door panel where the toe of my shoe must have scraped as I exited the vehicle with my size 13's.

Just ordered matching paint body side moldings from brighttrim.com. Told my wife I don't want any "kiss of death" dings on the side of our car.

My 2008 CTS is Thunder Gray and Ebony interior. It looks dynamite!! Anyone who has ridden with me thinks it is a awesome interior. I do not have wood trim. The chrome is great with the ebony interior. When I took delivery I thought the lighter colored pillars did not match with the black but they look OK.
Snow,salt and sand are tough on car finish.
Just had a by hand car wash, not quite ready for automatic and recycled water.

Easy exit feature ??

Would like some help. Just bought my CTS. Have read the manual and understand how I am supposed to program the easy exit button, but it doesn't seem to work. As I understand it, you set the seat and tilt wheel and then hold down the easy exit button until it beeps twice. When I attempt to set th button, it just activates the easy exit instead of accepting the settings. Any help?

are you pushing it down fast? If you do it to timidly it will activate the exit feature. Push fast and firmly holding it down till it beeps. Takes about 2 seconds.
