I like panameras. I just could not afford maintenance on a German car past warranty. The base CTS, incidentally, can come with AWD and runs on regular gas. That's pretty

Oh no! Well, we wouldn't want to drive something that might get us compliments from hot ladies, right?

Heavy-lurker here Don't hate too much

I absolutely love the CTS-Coupe. My grandfather bought one a few months ago (black) and my jaw dropped when he pulled in with it. I realize the back of the car is controversial but at least it is something different at the very least. I mean...it's a Caddy, look at the models from 15 years ago...

Also, idk how many of you have had a chance to drive one but I have many many times. The interior is unbelievable, you feel like you are in a spaceship. The ride is firm yet comfortable. Quite fun to drive.

I just wish it was the V

I kinda like unconventional shapes.. (the back of the CTS coupe)

The 370z was also loved because it's so different, and then the "ugly" 2010 Acura TL's... love em!!

But I've been seriously thinking about moving to the CTS Coupe from the 370z... its just too soon though, just had the Z for a year and a half... but am tempted...

Yeah first the CTS coupe, then the V coupe and something else.. I read some event plan somewhere, and there are some youtube videos and pics people who have attended this in the past have put up if you search around on Google...

They won't be giving out any discount coupons for purchasing the CTS right?

I can respect the CTS-V for what it is, but I just hate how it looks. Not a fan of that angular design.

Just wondering how you guys got these invites? Was it just randomly in the mail?

I've been visiting some Cadillac dealerships in the past few weeks but I'm quite sure I didn't give my BS email address where I got the invite at any dealership. So it must be from some car quote website I must've given the email address.. I've run Cadillac quotes or searched for used Cadillac's in the past few weeks.

Heard some people got it through car magazine subscriptions, but I have none of those.

I was wondering the same thing. Decided it was because I have a CTS title in my name.
Bought one for my daughter after graduation.
