Replying to: jkr2106 (Jan 06, 2008 12:00 pm) I too was shocked to buy a 2008 CTS 4 and when I got home found I could not open the garage door due to the GM mentality… This is a $45K car with lots of other option including all wheel drive but no garage door opener! After learning that the $10 worth of electronic is now a $400-500 install option I found the following solution. On ebay I purchased a “Carper 310 mini remote” $17.75. The unit is very small (less then 3/8” thick) and will fit very snugly into the compartment in front of the gear shifter. Place the unit on edge up against the driver side of the compartment, buttons facing the passenger side and press it firmly down into place, it will not move around and takes very little space up. Way to go GM, its no wonder why you’re losing buyers by the groves, you get a garage door opener in the most basic foreign models.

I'm just amazed by the fact that dealers are offering leftover '06-07 STS v6 for less than 30k. Thats an amazing deal imo. And I checked around to find its value in the used car market and ended up with $ 22k for a used 06 STS v6 at KBB. Thats just..wow... I got similar figures for SRX, but considerably better ones for CTS. Sounds like a deal I should keep an eye on. |

Replying to: bingoman (Jun 29, 2008 9:42 pm) Who buys a $40K+ car that doesn’t have an electric garage door opener in there home? It’s the mentality of the manufacture (in this case GM) not the buyer. CTS 4, is the all wheel drive version, and yes it’s an upgrade luxury item.
