I agree about Bimmers and Mercs, certainly not if you've said Audi. Impulsive: Exactly why I said “Europeans” since in general their designs are more elegant.

There edgy design is what sets them apart, I am 35 and personally love the razor sharp no apologies design theme. Judging by what I am seeing on the highways, it would appear that Toyota is quickly becoming the new senior ride of choice.

I personally hate it, and I personally don't know anyone who thinks these designs are attractive. I don't think these new Caddys will draw a younger and more attractive crowd into showrooms. The few people I see driving these things were all close to middle age and overweight. Not exactly the kind of image Cadillac is aiming for. These are love it or hate it designs.

To say americans dont know elegance is bull. You deff dont know enough about americans or our designs. This car isnt your great grand dads caddy, this ones for your sons.

It's a joke, I don't want to piss off rugby player. But I am not a fan of design at Caddy. I associate Caddy with American Iron in a good sense. CTS does not do it for me.

I have had a couple of CTS's and would have leased a V last time but the manual transmission and the fact that my car is often my "rolling office" just didn't work. I trade for a new CTS in a couple of months and look forward to stepping into the Coupe as soon as I can. PS. Tell the marketing guys I am 46, make well over six figures, drive what I want and played Football and Rugby at school... "ultimate females automobile"?? I don't think so.

I also know that Manoogian should get to know his market a wee bit better (as I have attended several Cadillac meets) as the first-generation CTS appealed very strongly to the younger generation, of which Cadillac showed no interest—until now.
