Replying to: 62vetteefp (Jul 16, 2008 3:39 am) The actual rate of depreciation is not given. But there are 5 different levels of ratings, so the CTS is in the middle. Replies to this message: 62vetteefp (Jul 16, 2008 5:11 am)

Replying to: sls002 (Jul 16, 2008 4:58 am) But there are 5 different levels of ratings, so the CTS is in the middle.   And, as has been noted, has similar depreciation to most of it's competition.   If you want actual depreciation you need to pay for it or go to a bank who did.   Anyone know of any other source other than looking at the classified's? (something like reading tea leaves).
#5019 of 6098 new Cadillacs by 62vetteefp Jul 16, 2008 (5:19 am)
In listening to Lutz during the question and answer period he mentioned that a number of new small vehicles will be developed for Cadillac and Pontiac/Buick.   I have not heard much lately on the BLS replacement. Did a google search and the hits are all pretty old.   Anyone know how to google and list out by date?
#5020 of 6098 CAdillac #1 in owner satisfaction by 62vetteefp Jul 16, 2008 (5:23 am)
We all have our favorites, our own loyalties and preferences. But in a survey of new vehicle buyers released today, only one brand can be at the top. The number one brand in the US in owner satisfaction in 2008 is Cadillac, according to AutoPacific’s annual Vehicle Satisfaction Awards (VSA) study.   This study is based solely on the opinions of actual new vehicle owners rating their new 2008 models. AutoPacific adds no “3rd party” opinion to the owner survey results, which are grouped into 28 car and truck segments. For more information, check out AutoPacific’s blog.   Cadillac’s overall win stems from the Escalade, Escalade EXT, the new CTS sport sedan and the DTS luxury sedan each winning the title as “most satisfying” in their individual market segments. Across all segments in the study, no auto brand (including BMW, Lexus, Mercedes and the others) was rated as highly by consumers as Cadillac.   Says they only asked actual owners of the vehcles. Do they not know that the non owners have an opinion also and that their reality is more important?

Replying to: 62vetteefp (Jul 16, 2008 5:23 am) Ask the man who owns one! I'm on my fifth Cadillac and I'm still a young man! If that isn't a ringing endorsement for Cadillac, what is? Replies to this message: steve_ (Jul 16, 2008 6:31 am)

Replying to: 62vetteefp (Jul 16, 2008 3:39 am) In your reality, how much should I pay for a 2006 CTS in today's dollars?   Regards, OW Replies to this message: 62vetteefp (Jul 16, 2008 6:57 am) fintail (Jul 16, 2008 8:16 am)

Replying to: 62vetteefp (Jul 16, 2008 5:23 am) Do they not know that the non owners have an opinion also and that their reality is more important?   Why would non-owners opinion or reality be important anyway? It's the owner's that count, right? If they are happy, that is very good. Seriously.   Regards, OW

Replying to: circlew (Jul 16, 2008 6:40 am) Well, per my reality, which is still part of the US, blue book says, whoops the site is down. Guess it is worth nothing since the data is not available. Or perhaps it is infinite?   http://www.kbb.com/kbb/UsedCars/default.aspx#YearId=2006&ManufacturerId=8&ModelI- d=29   But I did find a site that had it listed. View PicturesKelley Blue Book Price: $20,300 - $29,300   msrp was under $29k.
