Looks like the new CTS instead of the old one... for once I prefer the smaller car. ...and the Chinese SLS is different than the STS, but I don't think it's any better nor any worse ...just different.

I think the grill looks pretty good, but the fog/turn signals look too busy. Same for the side marker lamps.

The interior would look better with the "chinese" steering wheel or the entire "chinese" interior.

The rear end still doesn't impress me. It'd be interesting if someone put a "sixteen" rear end on the STS or made the front end a little easier on the eye. Anyone up to the challange?

yeah, why no bluetooth?

the 2008 Focus will have bluetooth. GM is way behind the curve still in electronics integration.

People's cell phone issues are of paramount to many snob asses who drive luxury marques like this.

The current STS has bluetooth...

One cool thing with Caddy's system is the ability to sync address data from PDA to nav by beaming. Don't they also offer live traffic, or at least on the CTS?

i would have liked to see the sls's rear lights.

I wouldn't: the only Cadillac that I likes seeing with the Euro-spec darkened tail lights is the SRX. I prefer the red ones on the STS and it is possible to have a red cover with an amber LED turn signal. Euro-spec VW Phaetons have them.

My wife amd I are replacing our '99 SLS with a new Cadillac this fall. Last night we were discussing whether to get the CTS or the STS. She likes the push-button start and head-up display in her Vette, so she thinks she'd rather have the STS which will also have them. Also, the STS has a 3" longer wheelbase and almost three more inches in rear leg room over the CTS. We do agree the interior and exterior are nicer on the CTS. Will have to look at both of them in person to make final decision.

Does the new CTS have Bluetooth? It didn't say so in the press release.
