Regarding the upcoming 2008 Cadillac CTS, just wanted to add a few comments:
1. I was happy to have learned (at the Cadillac/GM Blog site) of Bluetooth 'capability' on the 08 CTS models. Apparently, the 2008 model year CTS cars will not come from the factory with Bluetooth installed/activated, however the feature can evidently be added by way of a dealer-installed Bluetooth 'pack'.
As a side comment, GM should make Bluetooth standard in all of its new vehicles... certainly right away in all of its luxury branded cars.
2. The interior photos of the 08 CTS at the cadillac.com site appear to show a conventional key inserted into the ignition on the right side of the steering column. Is this how the 08 CTS will be configured when production begins? If that represents the production configuration, it seems rather archaic, given what most of GM's competition is doing. There should be a dash mounted keyless push-button ignition system.
3. As an FYI for all... the 2008 on-line ordering guide for all GM cars (including the new CTS) can be found at the following URL:

Click on the Cadillac wreath (this takes you to the Cadillac ordering guide home page), then choose 'CTS' in the drop-down box.
4. I'm interested in seeing some interior photos of the 08 CTS fitted with 'Ebony' color seats & trim, together with the available 'B19' & 'B20' wood trim packages. Should a fellow Cheers & Gear forum visitor locate such photos online going forward, I ask that he/she post the URL info into this site. Thanks.
