I’ll take the Mustang 500 GT any day over any Caddie.

What are you talking about?? It’s a beautiful sports sedan marketed towards a younger demographic. Did you actually LOOK at the car? It’s beating out all the foreign luxury cars. But I guess none of that matters with the WE HATE GM crowd. God forbid you should be rooting for this American Company to reverse its fortune.

I had BMW’s (never again), Jaguar (LOL - had to get another car to drive while the Jag was in the shop) a Mercedes - didn’t really love it. My favorite of all my cars...by FAR is my Lexus ES300. It’s now up to 160k miles and, other than oil changes, my brother-in-law replaced the starter. That’s it. Love this car.

"A face only a mother could love."

I have to agree. One of the ugliest cars ever to come from Detroit.

But then again... I've never seen any Cadillac that I'd be seen in.

That’s a valid compaint..and we shall see now with the CTS. They know they have to make this car work well...their future relies on it. I have to tell you, this is a gorgeous car, inside and out. I have to post the interior photos..it’s fabulous.

I like the looks....but I too wonder about the reliability.

A car only a senior citizen can love.

It comes with a complimentary pair of white shoes and a free trip to Del Boca Vista.

Sweet car, but I think I’d have to have the CTS-V. Do they still make it? It’s a T-56 + LS2, right?

While a 300hp V6 is OK they should at least offer SOME SORT of V8!!

Sorta like a ‘pug nose’!

To each his own..but I think you’re insane. This is the most gorgeous car I have ever seen. And I believe there are many who agree with me.

Cadillac has made their cars with the ugliest front ends in history. The little two door looks like it had a run in with a truck and lost.

SWEET ride. I got a good look at one at the mall not too long ago.

I’ve been thinking of trading in my C-Class and maybe this is its replacement!

It may be “marketed” to a younger crowd, but it is still a Cadillac. Cadillacs and Corvettes are for old people. They are not “cool”. Sorry.
