I’ve seen some really great looking cars recently and was surprised to find that they are Cadillacs. This in a neighborhood where it’s not unusual to see Ferraris, Maseratis, and other exotica.

There are some nice Caddy’s out these days. They look good and have very good performance (comparable with the German stuff). However I’m not willing to give any money to the companies that got bailed out, so I won’t be considering them in the future. Shame Ford doesn’t make a decent luxury sport sedan.

As for the Mustangs, I can’t imagine why anyone would find those appealing. Yes, they look good, and are quick in a straight line. But with a solid axle rear suspension, they are laughable in the corners. I cannot understand why the car magazine in question would possibly give them any great review. Again, while I won’t be giving money to Government Motors, the Camaro is pretty clearly a better performance platform. It’s got a better engine and better suspension(ooh, an independent rear suspension, gee you can get that on a bloody $15k Corolla or Elantra, but you can’t get that on a Mustang).

That’s good news! General Motors does something right once in a while.
