Replying to: douglasr (Jan 13, 2007 12:58 pm) "Mercedes and BMW sell across all ranges of product, which Cadillac does not match (there are no "3 series" type Cadillacs!) "   Isn't the CTS supposed to be in the same category as a 3er? Size doesn't look massively different, price points are quite similar, position in the brand heirarchy is the same. A 5er competitor it aint.

Replying to: louiswei (Jan 13, 2007 5:37 pm) >Exactly, just what I thought...   Sorry I mentioned it. I knew what to expect from your posts already and haven't been disappointed.   Obviously if I hadn't found it in a discussion here, I wouldn't have said I found it in a discussion here. Just skip my posts.   This is supposed to be a positive discussion about GM having Cadillac beome stand of the world again. Replies to this message: louiswei (Jan 13, 2007 7:08 pm)

Replying to: imidazol97 (Jan 13, 2007 7:07 pm) This is supposed to be a positive discussion about GM having Cadillac beome stand of the world again.   Sure, then why don't we stop mentioning anything about Toyota, Honda, Lexus, MB and BMW for now and concentrate on Cadillac?   Hmm? Agree?   I just don't understand how is it going to help GM return Cadillac to the standard of the world by talking about Toyota's problems.

Some folks aren't taking the hint about beating the dead horse and so I'm regrettably starting to delete posts that are turning into two-way private arguments. I'll recommend that your regular host and roving host do the same so that the topic doesn't get canned altogether.   I hope we can all settle back down to a level of civility and not crowd everyone out of the room by continual personal arguments.   Once again, Cadillac has been tried and convicted for all crimes in the past and has served its ten year sentence.   Let's get back to the present and hear what you think about Cadillac's present and future.   If you need some suggestions, I'd like to know your thoughts on things like how the public comes to perceive something as a quality product? Does media like TV and movies and music have a lot to do with this? could Lexus or Mercedes fall from grace and Cadillac come out on top? How would that happen? Can you see some other car company seizing a spot in the luxury car field like Lexus did in 1990, maybe with an entirely new brand-name? Does dealer service and dealer image have anything to do nameplate prestige or is mostly all about product?

GM and Cadillac will never again be top quality automakers. They are past their prime (which wasn't all that good to begin with).
