Car magazine gave it 2 1/2 stars (out of 5), top Gear doesn't like it much either.

That thing looks absolutely hideous.

Good looking car. Last year when i saw the concept car i thought cadillac should sell it in america. Especially if they make a blsv.I would buy one.

I really like the Saab 9-3 - but according to CR there's no reason to. It's about as reliable as a coke fiend. And with this car sharing 80% of the 9-3's parts, you'd have to be on SOMETHING to buy it.

No thanks.

General Motors had high hopes for its Cadillac BLS sedan, which went on sale this April in Europe only. But according to Sweden’s Göteborgs-Posten sales of the car have fallen far short of the projected 7,000 to 10,000 units per year. The car — which is built in Sweden alongside the Saab 9-3 — has sold just 400 units since sales began. What’s more, production has fallen to units daily. At that rate, GM would build less than 1,500 units annually. The Leftlane Perspective: Are Europeans simply taking their time to warm up to Cadillac? Will they ever? The BLS has received largely positive reviews in the region, but its seems brand snobbery may still be a major factor.

Wow, that must really hurt

that car will never sell.

Forget that Caddy is not an real brand in the Europe, that they dont have enough dealers or service centers.
It is an FWD luxury car that looks pretty bad to an average european. Europeans will never buy them.

I think eventually the car will sell. I like the looks and hope it arrives in america. Also i think cadillac needs a blsv to appeal to performnce enthusiatsts.
