As a consumer who loves, and owns high powered SUVs, I have to say- this thing is slow.  Very slow.

That's nice looking.  Reminds me of Aston Martins of similar vintage.

The new ones are boats.  The CTS WAS far better.

Are you suggesting that a Cadillac was better than a Datsun?

Completely.  The CTS handles FAR better and has better responsiveness, and the costs are not out of line either.

I see the Maxima is no more after this year.

Our CTS did have the MHD suspension which helps.

Yeah, I had a choice of a Malibu, Altima, Maxima, some Hyundai thing, and chose the Max.  The steering was "fake" hard.
