As I recall, Cadillac sells about 10x as many CTS’s as BMW sells the 3 series. The latest Roundel issue shows BMW in the middle of the JD Power initial quality survey (and Mini at last place) while Cadillac is #3 behind Lexus and Porsche. I wouldn’t scoff at the American’s abilities. The CTS doesn’t lose anything to BMW in driving dynamics (if you can live without the LSD in the BMW), the CTS has a nicer interior as mentioned. So, ultimately it comes down to taste (and prestige for some). I’m glad we have choices!
GM has gone through some major changes lately (duh!). The have really come out with some interesting designs in the last 5 years, and now they won’t be wasting their resources on legacy junk they couldn’t unload without bankruptcy. I look forward to seeing what they come up with!
Imagine M3 performance at a 328 price (and without runflat tires, no lack of LSD, no HPFP problems, a decent sounding exhaust…)
