What to do???

I have been thinking seriously about replacing my 06 with the 08 caddi CTS.
I enjoy my car, but have been annoyed by torque steer and other disadvantages of FWD. New CTS= 304-horse, 273-lb-tq 3.6-liter V-6 with direct injection, and more importantly rwd! A ton of other cool things like a 40gb hdd too...







What do you guys think? ha well of course your going to say keep the TL but why??

See http://www.caranddriver.com/roadtes...ance-page2.html re: the CTS in a full test in September's Car & Driver.

I'd be concerned about 1st year bugs (and since it's GM- 2nd year bugs). The CTS is a heavyweight (porky) - 4K lbs, so its test numbers are the same as that for the '04-06 6M TLs.

Buy a 2007 CTS-V and be done with it.
