Wow - that's quite a lot different than the current CTS. Looks great.

very nice. now they need a coupe.


see lincoln, other people can update their rwd entry-level sedans in a decent amount of time. why can't you?

Bump for an amazing car. I'm surprised there hasn't more commotion over this car.

 

[xanis]

I like the design a lot. The aggressive stance and lines look great.

Really? I'm not, whenever an GM or Ford do something right it's either ignored or put down.

I think GM is putting more of an effort into making quality cars than Ford is at the moment. A year ago I would have thought otherwise. But with this new CTS and the Saturn Aura my mind has been changed.

Edit for spelling.

Interior redesign is amazing. Very nice! :thumbsup:

"The entire CTS range now features a strut-tower suspension and a performance brakes and steering package lifted from the previous CTS-V model. All-wheel drive models receive an active transfer case, as well as an optional limited slip differential. Buyers can pick from either a manual or automatic six-speed transmission, while 17inch alloys comes as standard."

Nice feature and option list. I'd test drive it if I was seriously shopping the segment.

Doesn't look good tho, might be the ugly color they used.

cry me a river, every brand takes f*cking lumps here.

I absolutely love the CTS.

3.6L DI v6 = 300hp 270lb-ft on REGULAR

 

[Aimster]

steering wheel and wood trim looks cheap

 

[Squisher]

I might get the AWD version to replace my Trailbazer. I've always liked the CTS.

 

[isekii]

the front end looks fugly

 

[CraigRT]

Looks badass.... MUCH better than the current one (cept for CTS-V)

 

[thirdlegstump]

Probably just me but that car looks super ghetto.

 

[MazerRackham]

Grill is too big on that thing. Nice evolution of the previous model though...

 

[SVT Cobra]

Already seen it.




For those that read Automotive News you already know, but inside reports are saying that the CTS will no longer be a car, by 2009 the CTS will be a family of cars with a sedan, coupe, and wagon, possibly a vert.

 

[M2008S]

steering wheel is ugly and the frotn end looks like its dipped too far downward?

 

[swtethan]

Nice update on the car, I felt like it needed one.

 

[DukeN]

Pretty crappy car IMO. The previous gen had really ****** interior room despite the big exterior size, and the blocky design screams "hick caddy-lovin redneck". And I'll take that Infiniti/Acura/Lexus at the same price point, thank you very much.

 

[Mrvile]

Looks alright, I like the front but the part where the rear windshield goes into the trunk is a little too flat.
