Enjoy your CTS-V, I'm sure you will as you fly down the Autobhan!!

You also have a great weekend!

Floyd,
two cars - 4 doors, that`s funny but good

I know Bobo isn`t a fan of 4 doors on one car either but the power of any V - 2 or 4 doors is terrific.

My dealer get`s two CTS V`s, one in thunder-gray, one in white diamont, maybe my XLR have to leave for one of them.

Let me know how the CTS V compares to your STS V. I'm trying to be good and wait for the CTS-V coupe.

Kent, sure I`ll let you know but the most important thing is, when do they arrive here in Germany.
They was expected for November/December but this was before the financial-crisis and since the first deliveries in the US started about 2 weeks ago I expect the euro-models here maybe Jan - March 09.

Bruce, I know black is the festest color but my STS V is black raven so I would go this time for a light color.

You'll be lucky if you get anymore GM products over there at all. Bettter keep that Mock V and put a hood on it.

Bob,
I`m sure the 09`s will come and you know I`m infected by the V virus
Now I know what the "V" stands for

Kent,
I expect them around February over here and this would be a good time. The two cars my dealer has ordered are fully equipped and both are 6 speed automatics. (means top speed 175 but I can life with that)
