Love the "V", but not the wagon. Do you really like or need the wagon? I'm kind of a 4-door man. Maybe get that!

I think he did say that one of the reasons why he's been getting 5-door cars is that he likes to be different among others.

That was the exact reason why my wife bought her A4 in Avant form. I see soooooooooo many A4 sedans on the road everyday, but rarely spot the Avant ones.

Plus, I'm a bit of a do-it-yourself'er, I tend to need the extra space for those Home Depot runs..

DO IT MAN!

The Vagon (or any V) simply satisfies the need for raw meat car-wise.

BTW, I'm now at just under 31k miles and almost no problems. It's been more reliable than my RL was at this point in ownership. Believe it.

yeahhhh buddy.

Only thing remotely negative is that you would have a CTS and a SRX in your garage. Similar styling and very similar interiors (dash setup). If you and the wife dont drive each others cars, then the point would be moot.

Thinking about trading the RDX in on this. Did the math and it's doable if I skip a new roof and stove for my house. $49,200 - 20,000 (RDX trade) I mean, who needs hot food, and I have a tarp.

Maybe people forget that this "wagon" can out run a California AND cost 75% less.





Silly people.

+1 on that ... Time to change the family truckster image ... Wagons don't feel different than sedans but have way more utility.

Do it! I prefer the sedan over the wagon, but both are definitely better than a Mini IMO and if you really do need the extra space you get in the rear then it's a definite go from me.

I am a fan of Wagons.. I wish more makers would produce them... That V-Wagon is nuts. If I had the money, I would take the wagon over the coupe. Blow the doors of A LOT of cars with 4 people and a hatch full of whatever...

Ummm Yes please.

IMO, the CTS-V (coupe, sedan, wagon) is GM's best product line currently and will be for years. Hard to beat. Get it. You know you're going to.

Just teasing all of you...

If I were to get a 2012, I have to wait at least 6-8 weeks before I see one built. The image above is a 2011 at the auction with 11k miles on it. Although the Black Diamond Paint is really sharp, it still isn't my color preference. I'm going to keep a watch on this car, and if it's within my mental budget, I'll probably attempt to bid/buy it.
