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). |

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? |

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) 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: lemko (Jul 16, 2008 4:51 am) But, as I earlier stated, to look at it was to want to look away. A basically handsome sedan just all muddled up with a terrible front end (truck-like), a too tall and busy rear-end (cleaned up somewhat through the years) and a profile ruined by extra layers and cut lines. The interior: As Lutz noted, they used expensive materials but made them look cheap! Plus, to me, just the overall design looked incongruous and, well, cheap... The center stack, I think, was designed to look like a PC tower, and they ain't exactly pretty...! Throw in the Mercedes/BMW/Audi pricing and I had no desire to even drive it. I'm sure Caddy doesn't miss me...
