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. Could get it over $40k though if you tried.   3 series Kelley Blue Book Price: $24,400 - $35,600   c Kelley Blue Book Price: $22,200 - $34,800

Replying to: lemko (Jul 16, 2008 4:51 am) The 1st Generation (1G, in my shorthand...) CTS was a good car for GM/Caddy. From what I've read, it rode/handled/sold well. More European in reality than just marketing. And Caddy made a statement with its Arts and Crafts, er Sciences, styling direction. All well and good.   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... Replies to this message: circlew (Jul 16, 2008 9:55 am) louiswei (Jul 16, 2008 10:02 am)
