Let's face it, Cadillac is in the middle of a huge image come-back. One needs look no further than Lincoln to realize what could have happened to the brand.
That is your opinion, to me the shape got a bit boulbous and overly done on the Camaro between concept and production, but the CTS is just great looking in sedan or wagaon especially.

Definitely getting White Diamond. A blown White Diamond wagon will go perfectly with our turboed White Diamond Escalade
The CTS Wagon is one of those cars that pictures do no justice. Got look over one finally a few months ago (not a V though) and just loved the proportions.

I am looking for an Opulent Blue Metallic V Sedan myself... if I find one close to me and the trade value is right for my Camaro + my Avalanche, I'll be right there with you!

Awesome ride.

Great post, i think you nailed it. Like many of my Camaro and Corvette brethren, the V is represents the very best of what America has to offer. There is so much of what I love about the Camaro in the V, I still feel right at home.

I have yet to see the OBM, my wife and I both like photos of it. Don't ever drive a V unless you're prepared to buy - you will fall in love (especially if it has Recarro's)!

They seem to be next to impossible to find... Closest OBM Sedan to me I found was in Virginia near DC, but they won't do a dealer trade.
