The problem with Cadillac is simple. Price. Finally GM is building world class cars but charging prices competitive with the Germans. Most high end buyers they do not want to spend Mercedes $$ for a Cadillac. Not that Mercedes is a better car, but rather what buying a Mercedes says about the buyer. Success. Cachet. Before Cadillac was building 2nd tier luxury cars with 2nd tier prices. It was a mistake I think to try and move up.

Hopefully they can hold the price down with the CA6. It is more important than the weight. And hopefully a 1SS 1LE can remain below $40K and a very nice V6/4 can be very low $30sK. GM, avoid the price bloat. As it is many Camaros are getting out of reach for many.

The economy is booming for some, and there are lots of new jobs. But wages are stagnant while cars prices are spiraling upward.
Yea , I think Cadillac can be at the same price as the German cars but everything takes time and Cadillac charging 6,000 extra than the last model is too much at one time! Now they're selling them with a 3,000 discount!
