Good Luck with it, most of the new corvette owners and caddy based vettes tend to trade them at about 20-30K, because that is when the problems start to appear on them. If you have time to buy an extra bumper to bumper waranty then you should take, you will probably need it.

If I were you and wanted a bigger car, I would have went with a loaded maxima or a loaded altima.

but if you have money to burn and want a bigger car for family, a CTS-V isn't necessarily a bad choice. Otherwise if family and funds are the issue, you would've gone for a loaded Camry 4-cylinder camry or Honda Accord for reliability and price.

Um, yeah, I'm not sure what page you're on but an Altima is on a different planet in regards to acceleration, which I'd like to think most CTS-V buyers are going after. Not sure where you're getting your "information" but I don't think its credible with regards to users selling due to "reliability", especially considering you can get 100k/7YR warranties these days.
