The
2008 Cadillac CTS get the "Motor Trend Car of the Year" Award. We knew that the
CTS is a great world class vehicle that is priced like a 3 series BMW, but contended like a 5 series, and it's nice to see that Motor Trend agrees. This is very exciting for us and I can't believe how many calls that we received on this announcement.
Cadillac was the first Motor Trend "Car of the Year" 60 years ago. The last time we received this honor was 15 years ago with the 1992 Cadillac STS. We feel this is just the beginning for
Cadillac and GM and everyone at
Hendrick Cadillac Hummer is excited about future products still to come. The
CTS coupe and possibly a convertible, and the BRX are still to come in 2009 or 10. The BRX will be a smaller SUV between the size of the BMW X3 and X5.
It’s a great time in history to be a Cadillac Dealer. Check out this link to the article.

Media comments about the 2008 Cadillac CTS:
"Wow! Is this really a Cadillac? It's not just the best-handling Caddy in history, but probably the best-handling American sedan ever." (Angus MacKenzie - "MotorTrend")
"The big story under hood comes from Cadillac's new direct-injection V6. Injecting gasoline straight into the combustion chamber results in a more thorough combustion process, cleaner emissions, better economy and an increase in output - in this case, to the tune of 304 hp at 6300 rpm... and on regular fuel to boot." (Natalie Neff - "AutoWeek")
"Cadillac's new engine outmuscles most six-cylinder powerplants from Acura, Audi, BMW, Infiniti, Lexus, Lincoln and others..." (Richard Truett -"Automotive News")
"Boiled down to what matters most... 2008 Cadillac CTS - with its excellent powertrain, great handling, substantially improved interior and dramatic new styling - succeeds on all levels." (Andrew Bornhop - "Road & Track")
"The tall and distinctive [projector headlamps] look more like a glass-cut chandelier than a pair of automotive lighting devices." (Scott Burgess - "The Detroit News")
"The Cadillac CTS comes closer than any other car I've seen to date in providing the kind of entertainment features and telematics tools the driver and passengers want." (Bill Howard — "Technoride.com")
"The optional navigation system has a screen that retracts into the dash, but the top inch of the screen always remains visible as the primary display for audio and climate control, a real breakthrough in function for nav systems." (Dan Edmunds — "Edmunds Inside Line")
