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 ?? by emathisen

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.

I have a Cts with every option. I was wondering if anyone had a problem with the fuel pump. This 48k baby got stuck with 200 miles on it. They replaced the fuel pump. Not a great way of starting but since its been a real pleasure. The performace package and nav make this car a complete one

Headrests by arby1

I don't know if people remember the discussion early on about the uncomfortable headrests . I just received my car and and I see that Cadillac addressed the issue . I stated that the headrests were triangular in shape with the point heading into your head . On my CTS , it is now flat . Someone at Cadillac is reading these posts and correcting issues that they agree with . BTW , there was a piece in either Motor Trend or Car and Driver or an other publication , where the author writes that due to new regulations to prevent whiplash in a rear end collision , the federal government has mandated that headrests be more forward and are now not as comfortable as in the past .

Depressing View Day Before Christmas by bg18947

I was out today with the family to test out the seating of cars that I am considering for my next purchase. We went to see an Infiniti G35X Sport; Cadillac CTS; and Acura TL-S. I visited the Brogan dealership in NJ, but it was closed today. Regardless, what I saw completely turned me off from the CTS. Before the '08 CTS came out, I never thought that I would consider a Caddy. When it came out, I said that I would consider a Caddy after all. The dealer had 2 CTS with ugly whitewalls on them and it completely disgusted me and I said "No Way" do I want to be associated with a vehicle that can look like that. Like for many others, the CTS was a beautiful car in my mind, until I saw what bad taste people can have.
 
Dear GM,
 
Sorry, but you lost me again. You can thank the dealership for dressing up the car so poorly. I doubt that anyone who is young enough to be on Edmunds would dress their car up so UGLY, unless they are into Rap.
 
But, I do wish everyone the best with their CTS. I just can't stomach what I saw.
 
Happy Holidays!
