Anyone who shells out $ to have a vanity license plate is not thrifty.

whoa where to start? cadillac dont have to increase the price of their cars to compete with bmw and mb really someone who buys either of them has to much money and dont really know what to do with it mercedes hasnt made a good looking car since the 53 gull wing cadillacs are not the prettiest cars on the block and no near as fugly as a mb and man dont get me going on a bmw ultimate driving machine my ass more like ultimate marketing concept that for some reason some people believe i seen the 911 mentioned porsche had to learn the hard way that pushing the $$ appeal or snob factor doesnt last for long and had to go back to the performance side again i think they wwere down to 500 or 5000 units sold in north america before thay decided to rethink their strategy as for the vette saying it dont compete uh your not paying attention some models of the vette blow the doors off supercars at half the cost read a review on one or two or 3 thhey all usually come to the same conclusion world class car at a decent price

This just doesn’t matter, just cause this guy supports GM means nothing to me, GM sucks, its going down the ****ter, and him buying a quaint little DTS effects nothing. Thanks but, i just dont give a ****

I misread the title of this article and thought it had got so bad at GM that Warren Buffet is offering vouchers for Cadillacs. Is Warren related to Phoebe?

Yup, my brother from another mother.

All we’re doing is uncovering the truth … there are A LOT of monkeys here and NOT MUCH intelligence.

The bell curve my friend … we are positioned at the far right with very few others having an IQ higher than 130.

What a way to throw away his hard earned intrest on his billions of $. Mr. Buffett must not know much about cars. The Cadillac DTS is a friggin’ fugly POS. From the back the DTS looks like a late 1980’s Chrystler LHS.

Wow, big deal! Warren switched up his Lincoln Towncar for a Caddy. The sacrifices that billionares have to make. (If I spelled billionare wrong its because I don’t know much about billionares.)

Cadillac DTS’s are not enthusisasts cars. The only people who will be impressed with this glorified GM piece of garbage is the 80 year old hot mama’s down at the PigglyWiggly. Or the fogeys at Bingo night.

You guys just don’t get it! Cadillacs should cost as much as those cars and should compete tete a tete.”

So should Acura raise the price of an RL to $85k and call it a day?

You guys just don’t get it! Cadillacs should cost as much as those cars and should compete tete a tete. Reducing the price of a crap product so it doesn’t compete with anything else is a lame way of getting out of competition, it’s the same excuse as to why the corvette isn’t as good as a 911 because it costs so much less. Please tell me with what does this car compete exactly?

“tm whats cost got to do with it? Cadillac should be competing with them. They cost more because they are so much better”

You can’t compare a $100k car to a $41k car. Might as well compare a bicycle to a skateboard. The MB and BMW cost more because they cost more to build, engineer, parts, everything radar cruise control all the tech goodies. Eventually Cadillac will have a competitor to the LS class, S-class, and 7-Series. Compare an STS to a 5-Series. Cost is close and they are true competitors.

Having firsthand experience with GM products in the 80s (dad had a 1980 Seville and I had a 1982 Trans Am) I can honestly say that my experience turned me off to GM for a very long time. These 2 cars spent more time at the dealer’s repair shop within a 4 year period than the 8 cars I’ve owned since 1985 combined. However, GM cars have improved in leaps and bounds and I’m even considering giving GM another change (’06 GTO 6 speed). The new Caddies may not be anywhere near MB S-class or BMW 760 levels, but since they cost a fraction of what the Germans do, nobody should expect them to compete mano a mano either.

Actually, “tm” I’m probably bigger, and I don’t mean fatter, than you … probably far more intelligent than you … and am willing to defend myself more than you when attacked by monkeys like yourself …

But thanks for that waste of time.

“Conclusion: Warren Buffett is not a car enthusiast.”
No one said he was. The MB model mentioned cost twice as much, the BMW nearly 3 times as much.

Dean your just a bitter little man looking for confrontation.

Show me a Cadillac World Class enough to compete with the new Mercedes-Benz S-Class or BMW 760iL. Cadillac is not far enough upmarket yet. Buick could occupy the postion most Cadillacs do at the moment.

For someone who dines at dairy Queen, drives little, and believes he can sell me a Caddy … try and convince those who have been failed by GM, and their are many, that this should reassure them that all should be forgotten and forgiven.

And don’t give that **** about him being loaded, blah, blah, blah.

Hey #9 do you know what Buffets license plate says?
THRIFTY so buying a new car is a big deal.

“Despite his immense wealth, Buffett is famous for his unpretentious and frugal lifestyle. He continues to live in the same house in Omaha he bought in 1957 for $31,500. His chairman’s salary from Berkshire Hathaway of $100,000 per annum is extremely modest by corporate American standards.”
