Not a bland Honda? I'm impressed. They actually did choose the best new car. Bravo CTS!

Better still, unlike the previous CTS, the 2008 edition carries its edgy exterior theme and penchant for beauty right into the cockpit. In comparison, the Mercedes C350 cabin looks bleak and severe; the Honda Accord's dash seems fussy -- and not as well made. Cadillac's interior team has balanced form, function, and panache as deftly as we've seen it done -- in some ways (that brilliantly simple yet powerful nav/info system) better than anyone.



This one part of the MT article just made me realize hell may in fact have frozen over.

All around, it seems that GM is starting to get some actually descent vehicles out. This in addition to the new Malibu just to name two. Maybe getting knocked off its number 1 spot finally convinced them that they need to do some things differently.

I don't LOVE MT..

But they finally managed to correct their cranio-rectal inversion for bloody once: Cadillac has been doing great for the last 5-6 years and MotorTrend has only just figured it out.

Plus, the new Accord is pretty dull: Driven it, and it's fun but the CTS is far better.

LOL....I was just thinking the same. If they would have said Accord it would have been that MT is more biased towards Honda, imports, blah blah blah.

Cadillac CTS was a nice choice though.

i think they deffintly picked the right car, i love the cts, i really need to take one out.

and i agree with extreme fire, they are putting some better vehicles out, my parents bought a saturn aura two weeks ago and the car is awesome. I think the new malibu is going to be on that same platform as the aura so it should be pretty nice also

They both sit on the Epsilon platform and the new Malibu has been kicking ass in reviews, but damn I would kill to own a black CTS w/ the FE3 suspension.

Maybe a little, is that so wrong?
P.S. I like your sig with the closeup of the orange cat, he looks almost just like mine. Makes me smile every time I see it.

When's the new CTS-V coming out? I'm really looking at an S4 as my next car, but if the CTS-V follows suit with the non-v I might be reconsidering.

in all fairness, i'd say car and driver is more biased towards honda than MT.

good to see GM winning awards for something other than trucks
