...as they have a strong presence in China. Pontiac looks more vulnerable and Hummer and Saab have absolutely no reason to exist.

Buick's doing pretty decent in China, and believe it or not, so is Cadillac. Stroll around in Beijing or Shanghai and you'll see Escalades everywhere. Then again so is Chrysler 300. Interestingly, no Lincoln is seen there (then again, who cares). marsha7, you got a real good point. The thing is cars cost a lot more than furnitures, so we tend to whine more about the $$$ we lose on the way, unless youre talking about those $20k sofa and beds from Italy |

By Brian Moody June 30, 2008 Our Long Term Cadillac CTS is well worth the $46,000 as equipped sticker price. It's fun to drive, has plenty of cool gadgets not to mention it is a really attractive car. Looks aren't everything but I can't stand having something that everyone else has, that's why I like the CTS. I find my self looking over my shoulder or out the window just to get a glimpse. The pulled back headlights, and bulging fenders give it a tough look. I like the Audi A6 or Infiniti M35 for about the same money - I'll pass on the "me too" 5-series, especially in black or silver. Think the CTS is too expensive? It's not. These days to get a really nice car you've got to spend $30,000 plus, to get something special you've got to spend more than $40,000. Am I wrong? Go to: http://blogs.edmunds.com/roadtests/3060 At least Edmunds thinks the CTS is worthy of it's price, a step toward retaining the standard of the world? |

Replying to: circlew (Jul 09, 2008 5:56 am) Of course not to you. Anyway Edmunds compares the CTS in features and performance to the M45 which star at $44k.

Replying to: 62vetteefp (Jul 09, 2008 4:02 am) I think if one considers a well equipped CTS as a low priced 5-series alternative, then you get a lot of car for the money. As an entry level sports sedan, the CTS is perhaps too big to start with, and a bit too expensive to be a low priced entry in the sports sedan market. The CTS is a "Cadillac" sports sedan.
