It's funny as to why they would do this you would think that they would have one model that keeps there heritage. But I guess they really could not do that cause they are in such heavy compotition with the european luxury cars. Defending Northstar perf a qtr mile at a time!!!!

STYES Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 It's a good thing that Caddy left it's roots! Twelve years ago we had the 75 grand Allante with "coach work" designed by Pinin Farina for god sakes! Today we have the XLR for the same price! In Gatlinburg Tenn, there is an Allante hanging out of the second story window of the Ripleys museum, and that is where it belongs! The CTS is bigger and better than the "3" series BMW. Forget the M because the V challenges the M5! It is about damned time we can shout those now famous words, "better, faster, cheaper!" If the consumers could only forget Caddy's roots, they will once again rise to prominence! Cadillac wants to take their products to the world, and "crap boxes" is what the world wants as basic transportation. They playing field is not fair in the world market because other countries tax the hell out of American products, unlike the US with it's imports, and the attitude around the world regarding America is not that good. If there was a fair market, Caddy would dominate. There are only two legit domestic manufacturers in the world market, GM anf Ford, and at least 20 imported brands. The US is fighting many battles on many fronts, and it is about time that Caddy is bringing a good fight. I wish I could say that for the other American makes. I no longer count Chrysler, they are owned not by Americans, but Germans! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
