Wake up GM

Yes! Now that I have your attention, lets help General Motors wake up and get its act right.

Being a Cadillac enthusiast I am disillusioned as to why GM would build and market the Cadillac CTS to compete against the likes of the Mercedes C class, BMW 3 series, Audi A4, Volvo S60, Infiniti G35 etc and yet not offer a feature that can be found in ALL these competing brands: an all wheel drive option. Yikes! GM are you serious about designing cars with consumers in mind? Well, hopefully you’ll get the message loud and clear when consumers keep trading in their CTS’s for the competition leaving the CTS to have a natural death.

Long live the CTS…long live the consumer.

well... I must interceed here and give my opinion... if I had to pic between a 3 series a C class, a A4 or any of those you mentioned... I'd have to go with the CTS... although i have never compared between the models...

my friend used to have a 318, granted thats the worse one they ever made... it was a nice car but it was built like a tank... that car was over 4k pounds...

the C-Class... thats europes taxi... those things have roll up windows and such...

the A4... thats an exepnsive VW Jetta and the styling sucks... one of my co workers has an A4... it sucks...

hopefully the sigma II CTS will be class leading, but for now I'd like to think that the CTS we have fits into the sceme of things...

Well Newbiewar...point well taken! The CTS (of which I own) is a relatively nice ride...however my main point is why not just have an AWD option...literally the entire competitive line has it. In areas that snow this would be a welcome option.

AWD is for Pu$$ys. :P

Okay, seriously althought I'd never buy one over a RWD one, it's not a bad idea. I like Infiniti's approach of applying most of the power to the REAR wheels most fo the time.
