| This topic is slowly morphing into a discussion (comparison) of both model years. Any way to change the topic title to 2008/2009 Cadillac CTS? | |

Replying to: tribmw (Jul 09, 2008 11:30 am) For 3 to 4 snows a year, I think traction control is sufficient. In my younger years I lived in PA and owned several Chrysler 300 letter series (300 to 400 hp) with traction control. I never had a problem in the snow. |

Replying to: sls002 (Jul 11, 2008 5:37 am) "Around town, the base V-6 emits a charming growl right to is 7000-rpm redline. At full whack, it is 2dBA noisier than the DI. On the other hand, it's quieter at idle and at a 70mph cruise. Both engines offer smooth throttle tip-in and excellent idle quality." Speaking of both engines he goes on to say, "...in terms of engineering, value, and dynamic charm---(they) likely represent the finest effort in Cadillac's 106 year history." I hope that helps. Also for what it is worth, my new CST with the standard V-6 is a quiet as a tomb. |

I ordered a DI without these two options, but my dealer can get one quicker with these 2 additional options. I posted prior that I did not like the "cheesecloth" sunroof cover. Thinking some more about it, I might be able to live with it. Survey: I usually keep a car for about 7 years. Do you think resale would be any better (or worse) with or without these 2 additional options? Thanks for your opinions.

Replying to: dmathews3 (Jul 13, 2008 3:34 am) 1. Can a route be programmed into the unit while driving, or does the vehicle have to be in park, or stopped? 2. Does the screen always rise out of the dash when starting the car, or can it be programmed to stay down until called for? 3. How is the database for the POI and streets updated? Can you download from Cadillac and enter via a USB, or do you have to buy new DVD's, or via OnStar, or? Thanks!

Replying to: james104 (Jul 13, 2008 6:29 am) 2. Don't know I have a STS 3. You must buy the DVD's but GM gives you the first 3 years worth for free. I find that things don't really change that much except for new sub divisions and maybe new malls. A road always stays the same and the same McDonalds doesn't move either
