Replying to: bingoman (May 17, 2008 9:36 pm) Congrats on your new CTS, Bingoman. What color did you get? My wife is only driving 1/2 mile one way to work, so our CTS mileage is pretty much at a standstill. I'll probably hang on to the 03 for another year. Since we live in the midwest, my wife wants AWD for the few days when we have bad snow storms in the winter. Good luck and keep us informed on your experiences with the new CTS. I trust your opinions along with those of sevenfeet0.

I picked it up Saturday so I have not yet put 100 miles on it. I can't believe how smooth and quiet it rides. There is a street near me with a series of cracks and ridges that really made the '03 rattle, but this car hardly noticed them. Next month I will be going out to Vegas to see the kids so I will have a chance to see how it handles on the freeway. In the meantime I need to put some mileage on the car as they say not to drive over 70 for the first 500 miles.

Replying to: bingoman (May 21, 2008 7:18 am) Speaking of colors, has anyone seen a CTS finished in Sunset Blue? I think I have seen all of the colors except that one and it does not reproduce at all well on the website. It does not seem to be very popular. Is it one of those paints that changes tone as you change your angle of view? Replies to this message: arby1 (May 21, 2008 6:09 pm)

Replying to: kplacer (May 21, 2008 1:28 pm) I saw one when I was shopping for a car . The color changes with the backgound and reflection of the environment .

#2313 of 2757 CTS Dash Kit by james104 May 31, 2008 (6:16 pm)
First of all, I just wanted to announce that I just ordered a 2009 CTS DI RWD tonight. Thunder Grey ChromaFlair Exterior with Lt. Titanium interior. I am looking for suggestions for a real brushed aluminum dash trim kit to fit over the factory plastic on the center console, doors, and hopefully steering wheel. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks so much!

Replying to: james104 (May 31, 2008 6:16 pm) My only suggestion is to leave it alone. Aftermarket anything still looks aftermarket. The car is beautiful as is...congrats and enjoy it!

Replying to: james104 (May 31, 2008 6:16 pm) Thunder Grey ChromaFlair is an excellent color! When you ordered your 09 CTS, was there a price increase from 08? And do you know if it is it too late to order an 08? Replies to this message: dmathews3 (Jun 03, 2008 2:38 am) james104 (Jun 03, 2008 5:48 pm)

Replying to: dabennys (Jun 02, 2008 9:41 pm) You're almost 2 months to late for a 08

Replying to: dabennys (Jun 02, 2008 9:41 pm) I have heard there will be a price increase. The dealer does not know yet how much. The agreement I have with the dealer is that I will pay any increases (above my agreed upon price). On the other hand I will be entitled to any dealer cash, incentives, rebates, etc. that may be available at that time (as if!). I ordered the Consumer Reports electronic "car buying kit" so I can keep track of these kinds of things, including dealer holdback, etc which is how I arrived at my negotiated price in the first place. The kit is good for 3 months of online access. I expect the vehicle in either late August or September. The wait is killing me, maybe I will take up smoking to keep my mind off of it.
