If we do have to get a “premium” American car here – I would go rather Holden import the New Buick LaCrosse.

I’ve just read a brief article on it but I can tell you It’s way better looking than this thing.
It looks like a WM Statesman crossed with a BMW 5 Series and hint of an Lexus IS-F Sedan..
It uses the same Direct Injection V6 as the upcoming Commodore and this Ugly thing.. it is also availabe with a new 6 speed Automatic and AWD.

^^^^^^^^^^I hope they do better than they did with the HSV XU6.

Duck – Yes the upcoming Commodore is expected to have the same 230Kw Direct Injection V6..
Yet the Direct Injection Twin Turbo Optimised [DITTO] version is capable of 300Kw. However; that will probably be reserved for HSV to make a car to try and compete against the Awesome F6

Holden should try and get a hold of the 400Kw [Northstar] V8 as well if they can – the engine is the only decent thing with Caddies

…………I heard Holden may get a similar engine to the V6 CTS Cadillac too!

The only thing I don’t like about the Cadillac CTS is those clear tailights like on the last picture above, I like just the normal (traditional) red tailights.

And, Andrew M I DON’T KNOW HOW MY TASTE IS IN MY ASS, if I like the design of the Chyrsler 300C and the Cadillac CTS.

Both are very good looking cars IN MY OPINION!

So I’m guessing you dislike the look of the 300C and/or CTS, Andrew M?

Sorry Wheelnut but the Chrysler 300C and Cadillac CTS are both good looking cars.

I drove a Cadillac DTS in the USA earlier this year and it was fantastic to drive. Handled and performed very well (the DTS has a 4.6L V8).
I would buy a CTS except for the obvious rip-off in pricing. The CTS sells in the USA for $34K (retail level), even at today’s exchange rate, that equates to $58-59K. When the CTS was announced for Aus, the exchange rate was over .90 cents, don’t tell me pricing wasn’t agreed to then. They don’t have to be converted to RHD as Cadillac run LHD & RHD assembly lines, this car is exported all over the world.
