Even before Kroymans went bankrupt you could get a loaded V8 STS for 27k Euros before taxes, and there's no way anyone involved is making a profit on that. They probably need to sell a loaded CTS 3.6 for like 37k Euros (before taxes) to break even, and right now they're being...

The Panamera actually has pretty weak acceleration numbers for its horsepower rating. And that is due to the turbo. The turbo lag definitely shows up in the acceleration numbers. CTS-V FTW! LMAO @ you using the Panamera S numbers to prove your point and not using the Panamera Turbo numbers which are way better than...

The fact is Cadillac has a long way to go before they are accepted at the top ranks of luxury buyers as the must have vehicle choice. Fact right? None of what you wrote were facts. Your just spewing words from the perception that you have towards Cadillacs. Cadillac is and will always be a Luxury division that will compete with...

I am so pleased that Cadillac is not intimidated by any of the BMW's Ms, Mercedes' AMG, or Audi's RS vehicles. Those of you who think that no Cadillac has prestige just don't get it. The CTS-V is the first Cadillac in close to 50 years that is truly world-class. Wait til the coupe and wagon Vs are turned loose. All three V variants are deserving of high praise.

Yeah, like I care how my boss likes my work, I care if my girlfriend thinks bad about me, and I care if a cop thinks I look suspect. But as far as needing a brand to show my status in life, forget it. I'm me. Take it or leave it.

You can probably imagine what happens with the resale value of used...

Here you go 3.4 0-60 11.7 @ 118 My mistake. I forgot they had two engine trims. I wrote the Panamera off from the beginning because it is a very limited production vehicle and hasn't seen very much testing in the media yet to validate its performance....

Quote: Originally Posted by All-Or-Nothing I think the Panamera is beautiful. It's performance numbers are more than a tick faster also. In fact it is a lot faster than the CTS-V. Without the price being cheaper the Caddy would be outclassed even more. I admire the 150 grand porsche panamerica but to say its good looking is truly a rare statement.. Not one automotive journalist has stated the Panamerica is good looking. In fact its...
