I want so bad for Cadillac to succeed, they are trying so hard, and churning out amazing cars. Something just needs to click with buyers, hopefully the CT6 is a start.

Some debuts coming to Chicago...

Including a 1LE! I hope...

Ladies and gentlemen, the great Sergio Marchionne.

Marchionne says they're still learning from the process?? How long as Chrysler been in the car manufacturing business????

GretchenGotGrowl · 01-27-2016, 03:33 PM

Now they are saying they will discontinue the Dart and 200??? That was quick.

ssrs2lt · 01-27-2016, 07:59 PM

Wow you're right ^ both are gone ...

KMPrenger · 01-27-2016, 09:43 PM

Discontinuing the 200???

Wow...I thought that is/was a great car! Did it really just not sell? I've seen plenty around here.

FenwickHockey65 · 01-27-2016, 11:23 PM

It's official. Sergio has lost his mind.

Goblue1313 · 01-27-2016, 11:40 PM

Wha wha what? I had a new 200 for a rental last year while on a field assignment. Put almost 10,000 miles on the car and enjoyed it the whole time I had it. Is it a sport sedan? No. But was a great all around car. Peppy, comfortable, great on the highway and actually pretty good looking too. Was really surprised by how well it performed. If there are dropping it then I'm not sure what they are smoking. Unless they have some surprise in a rebadged fiat to drop in its place that is better.

GretchenGotGrowl · 01-28-2016, 06:39 AM

Yeah, hopefully someone at FCA has replacements for those two models. I actually liked the Dart (flame suit on), and was hoping there would be a SRT version.

Goblue1313 · 01-28-2016, 07:52 AM

Saw this this morning. Not sure about the Sergio and his master plans.

Wow! So Ford is developing performance versions of their hatchbacks, GM is expanding their 5-door offerings, but FCA is jumping on the CUV bandwagon. Sorta like buying stocks at their 52-week high isn't it?

roorback · 01-28-2016, 12:28 PM

Honestly both those cars were sort of garbage offerings. Still it's silly to just abandon them. Good news for chevy as those who like the 200 styling can grab it's sister the malibu.
