Replying to: vic10 (Jan 14, 2008 10:17 am) No. I have zero interest in the STS.

Replying to: beerme1 (Dec 30, 2007 10:47 am) Personally, I have decided to wait for the 2009 CTS. I want to see what improvements they make and new cheese they are putting in to attract us mice. Plus the car will be a model year newer. I am driving an 2001 Isuzu Trooper right now which is paid off and has only 58K miles. I am itching to get a sports sedan to have some fun with after 6 years driving a truck. But the Trooper is bulletproof. I will probably have to shoot it (with a Bazooka) before it would die. So I am not under any pressure to buy the 2008. If you are not under any pressure, why not wait for the 2009? We already know that the 2009 CTS will have Bluetooth since the 2009 CTS-V has it. And I bet they will do something to address the complaints about the translucent sunroof cover. I am guessing that the easiest fix would be to just make the material of the cover not translucent. That way they can just leave the sunroof as is. The current double panel sunroof is nice, just not the light and heat of the sun coming through in the hot Florida/California/Arizona/Texas/Nevada weather. If they offer a "standard" sunroof, that would be fine too. Plus maybe the other minor tweaks. Like getting rid of the rattles and stuff that some have mentioned on this forum. And maybe they will come up with some new color or interior options??? Replies to this message: waydown (Jan 16, 2008 4:51 pm) tntmyth (Jan 16, 2008 9:34 pm) beerme1 (Feb 15, 2008 7:56 pm)

Replying to: tntmyth (Jan 14, 2008 7:44 pm) When the 2009 comes out, do you think prices will come down on the 2008s? I imagine dealers have more incentive to get the older models off the lot. Replies to this message: tntmyth (Jan 16, 2008 9:34 pm)

Replying to: waydown (Jan 16, 2008 4:51 pm) I think it depends on how many 2008's they have on the lot the month the 2009 ships. Cadillac dealers have been keeping their inventory just at the level to keep the 2008 CTS exclusive, just enough to meet demand. If they can keep that up, then they can just taper down their inventory on the 2008's and bring in the 2009 without a hitch and without discounting. But if they have 2008's on the lot, they will need to discount them to keep the sales going.

Replying to: tntmyth (Jan 14, 2008 7:44 pm) One of the things I hope for if I can wait it out is that the airbag light gets moved back up onto the rearview mirror. I hate that orange light on the center stack. I am torn right now after attending an auto show last weekend. The cheese for us mice will be the bluetooth as you have suggested. Perhaps a sunroof fix although it doesn't bother me. It would be nice if they added the heads up display also. Perhaps paddle shifters also? And the added benefit of having the bugs removed would be a nice incentive but I'm not sure after selling my car in December and now driving a super charged regal that I can wait till likely August for delivery. And even then I have no clue when our dealer would be able to write an order and importantly know what the options really are. Our dealer says he would expect a 3 week delivery on an ordered car if I do it now. They only sell Cadillac so maybe he is right.   p.s. I swear I saw a link for a car and driver video somewhere. I can't find it now. Not even on C&D website.
#12 of 230 09 CTS-V with supercharger? by phaetondriver Feb 16, 2008 (10:16 am)
Just wondering who would buy a 550 HP Cadillac CTS-V when they come out in Q4? With gas prices in the 3.00+ up to $?.?? is a 6.2L Supercharged V8 that will probably get in the neighborhood of 12/22 mpg something you want to buy?   How much does a CTS-V weigh anyway? 4000 pounds?    FYI I am not a CTS owner...

#14 of 230 sunroof problems? by psdesertrat Feb 17, 2008 (9:59 pm)
I don't know why there is such a issue with the sunroof. I live in the desert. All I did was spend 30 bucks and have a additional layer of tinting put on. Problem solved.
#15 of 230 CTS speedometer by wc1 Mar 03, 2008 (1:07 pm)
Man, I sure hope the fix the speedometer. The speedo reads 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, 140, 160. The numbers 140 and 160 are in a noticeably smaller typeface than the others. I could almost understand if 100-160 were smaller since they are three digits, but having 100 and 120 larger than 140 and 160 makes no sense at all. This had to be an error. And it was a deal breaker for me. This is pathetic. GM, are you listening? Replies to this message: sevenfeet0 (Mar 04, 2008 12:20 pm)
