Agreed, but they should have made it just a tad bit longer (wheel base and overall length) and called them "Eldorado's" or "ESC V" (Eldorado Sports Coupe).

 

I hear what you are saying...but the Eldorado paints a different picture in my head than the CTS.

 

BTW, they do have a CTS V Wagon on the way. My dealer sent me a letter asking if I was interested in taking one for a spin.

Yea, some beastly gas-guzzling FWD V8.

 

I just hate "us" trying to compete with "them" by changing "names" (feel free to correct) to a string of letters/numbers. Eldorado,Seville,Deville they stood for something (Eldorado was the king of gold as I recall). What does CTS stand for? What does M6/E550/Q7 stand for?...Nothing as far as im concerned, nothing.

it was piloted by Mike Skeen and a few others. Skeen managed to lap it in 2:07 or 2:08....which made for 2nd F.lap in the race behind the 911 that was roasting and toasting until it DNFd with a blown flat-6
