Replying to: caddyhodad (Aug 26, 2009 8:33 pm) The CTS owners manual says to change oil when the monitor says or once a year, which ever come first. That is good enough for me. Synthetic oil can last a lot longer than 3k miles.

Replying to: kevincito (Oct 21, 2008 4:44 pm) I was surprised to read of your problems. I have an SRX that has been virtually bullet proof for 40,000+ miles and the local [Austin} dealer has been great to deal with. I hope your problems are resolved soon.
#220 of 231 Is this a good deal? by scrumhalf7 Sep 02, 2009 (7:09 pm)
I went to the dealer and looked at a 2009 CTS DI with 3200 miles that they are listing as new, it was driven by one of their VP. It has Nav. and Lux. 1 package and they are asking for $45745. I'm not sure if that is a good deal or not. I KBB it and with all the same options KBB came back at $40,500-$41,500. So my question is what should I ask for. I understand they need to make a profit too but to me this isn't even a new car bc it has 3200 miles. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Replying to: scrumhalf7 (Sep 02, 2009 7:09 pm) They would have to give me a much bigger price break than that to take a used car like that off their hands.

Replying to: scrumhalf7 (Sep 02, 2009 7:09 pm) To me it is too high. And in particular because of my last new car purchase experience. I bought a new car that that was driven by the owners wife on a cross country trip. Well it turns out that even though they sold it to me as new and was financed and considered new by Ford, in the state of Wisconsin the car had to be titled to the dealer. So in fact I am listed as the second owner which caused a lot of confusion and aggravation on my part. But we were looking at a 08 cts di with both lux 1 and 2 for for the kbb price you have listed for the 09. So to me personally if I were making an offer on that car, verify that it has not been titled and offer them $39,500 Remember new or not the car was at very least a demo and price needs to be reflective of that. I know that some dealers must still be sitting on 08's and if you're not concerened about the year, the deals on on 08 should be significant. But if not at least stick with the kbb price and shop around and you will find a dealer who will be at that price if offered. But talk to the dealer and treat the car as anything more than a discounted demo and see what you get. What is the sticker price on the car?

Replying to: beerme1 (Sep 03, 2009 3:33 am) The MSRP is $48245. Just this morning they dropped the asking price to $44245 plus there is a dealership discount of 2500 or at least there was last night. So I'm looking at $41745. But I think your right Beerme1, they need to look at that car as a demo so that is how I'm going to approach it. Thanks for the heads up on the title issue. I'll let you know what I get. Replies to this message: artmbgolf (Sep 03, 2009 8:41 am)

Replying to: scrumhalf7 (Sep 03, 2009 5:44 am) A lot of Caddilac dealers have the manager or owner drive a car and keep it under the miles limit that they can sell it as new in that state. These demo cars should be bought at around Invoice or less and you also get any rebates available.

Replying to: 150mphclub (May 05, 2009 4:05 pm) Still love my 09 CTS. It now has 14,200 trouble free miles on it. I just drove from Indy to Montreal to Hellertown, PA and back to Indy. Averaged 30.6 mpg for the trip (about 99% highway). Replies to this message: artmbgolf (Sep 08, 2009 10:37 am)

Replying to: 150mphclub (Sep 06, 2009 9:08 am) That is great that you got a car that gets above the EPA highway!
