#27622, "The New 2008 Cadillac CTS, Maybe my next new car?"


          

I finally saw one in person for the first time at a local fair. Damn that shit is sexy...Sorry I just wanted to share....Im thinking of getting a new car sometime soon, these are the canidates so far....

2008 Cadillac CTS ( I want the V Series when it comes out =))
2005 Chrysler Crossfire SRT6 Roadster (Most of you will think its ugly probably, I HATE the coupes but the SRT6 Roadster/Convertible I love and they are rare)
2005 Acura TL Type S (See them everywhere though)

Those are my choices so far, it will still be awhile until I make a purchase though, that and I need someone to T-Bone my Blue car....

g37 is going to run you 40k all said and done. The CTS-V was my first choice before I got the G35. The G was ninja like as opposed to the CTS samurai like styling. G was more subtle, stock with some sneaky ass options but add the rims, aerokit and 5psi and that mofo is slicing through competetition with style.....just like a real ninja. The previous years CTSV is 400hp stock. Not much more you can do to it. The styling already shows you this car is equipped for some swordplay. It's big and bulky, but dangerously sexxy at the same time. I think I did right with my G. 20inch stagger chrome lip rims and poeple feel the need to tell me my car is beautfiul at every stoplight I"m at. The G reminds me of Ultraman and the CTCV reminds me of Gundamn. If you don't follow, it's alright because I'm drunk right now.

our school has a crossfire that was donated to us because it was left out in a hurricain or something and the electronics were bad. it wasnt an srt6 but it was a blast to drive. ive never felt anything with better handling and i love the look of the coupe, (we have a coupe) im not as fond of the roadster. for the amount that they have taken off the crossfires, you can get a great deal for a great car.

Thank you mobil one for rust proofing my driveway.

Co-worker has a G37s; got to drive it about a week ago. Definately a boner-inspiring drive. But if you opt for the CTS make sure to get the V.

I for one have to agree with you on the Crossfire...one of the very few cars I prefer in roadster form over coupe form.

the srt-6's are cheap and you can find ones w/ no miles that were never sold for like 25 grand down from 45 new. Questionable looks though

I dont think you have to be 60 to drive a caddy, the CTS is sick as hell, ya if I get a CTS it would only be the V Series or nothing else. 400HP stock and be rolling in a smooth ass ride.... Honestly Im just so done with the ricer/nothing running right/shaking noises thing, I dunno I just want something I know I wont fuck with. I love the new G37 as well but I know I will see those around everycorner pretty soon, I want to have something nice but I still wanna be different too, thats why I really like the Crossfire SRT-6 Roadster, I have still yet to see an actual SRT6 Roadtster in person, I have seen the convertible and I have seen SRT6 Coupes but not the SRT6 Roadster, they are rare. They are small clean and are 330HP Supercharged, seems pretty fun to drive but I cant even find one close to test drive lol. I wanted the 350z forever but I KNOW myself, I will dump so much money in that thing, the most I wanna get on my new car would be upgrades rims and stereo, maybe dropped but probably not even that. We will have to see though =)
