Direct injection I am a little confused about. What would happen if they add a supercharger?

I took the 08 CTS DI for a test drive; it didn’t take me long to really love it; the MSRP was a little over $47,000, but compare it to the MB E Class is a great bargain. Car critics called it “The best Cadillac in 50 Years” and I called it “the best Cadillac ever”.
Unfortunately it has a cheap sunroof cover (with wind noise) which blocks only 50% of the sun when I don’t need it; what makes it worse is that you can’t configure the car with the Premium Luxury Package minus the sunroof, unless you’re willing to pay more for less, by not taking the Premium (bundling) package..

I’m glad to see a US car getting a good review, but the comparison to the 3 series is way off, they may compete in price but not in size, the CTS is closer in size to a 5 series. I don’t think many people will be considering both these cars.

Nice to read a review of a GM product that doesn’t start off with GM products stories from the 1980’s. How refreshing to read a review on the car in question!

Great job GM.

I appreciate Zerin Dube article and am looking forward to comments on the comfort, noise, and space of the rear seat and the utility of the trunk. I’ve spent time on tracks and have found that cars that are sweet on a track may often be unpleasant on the road. Is the CTS with the FE2 option that happy compromise of price, roadworthiness and utility?

I really like this car. Dare I say I’m almost considering one for my next vehicle. I really like the design and the specs seem to point to it being more of a driver’s car now. GM is really putting out some nice products now.

Impressive, a GM that has the interior quality/fit/finish comparable to Audi, available in RWD or AWD, better driver’s car than the G35, sounds like a threath to all!

Well, I am glad to see a review that didn’t bash a GM product. I too hope the general public will forget what Cadillac has done in the 1970s to 1990s and just focus on this and if they must look at the pass, look at the time when Cadillac was a competitor of Rolls-Royce and Mercedes-Benz back in the 1920’s. Hopefully Cadillac will get up to more of that status, this is certainly a good start! keep it up Cadillac!
