Exactly. How can ANYONE find fault in a super wagon? It makes more sense than a super SUV from a performance perspective. Not only that, the CTS wagon doesn't lose out on much cargo room.

As one of the few to drive it here I thought it was great.

The REGULAR CTS Wagon isn't expected to be a big seller and this would have very low sales goals.

We have missed out on a lot of great cars b/c we don't get them in the USA.

Like a muscled-up Venza somewhat....

Default 2011 Cadillac CTS-V Wagon

The "practical" new super car??? Hmmmm....

http://www.worldcarfans.com/11005102...lkaround-video

Cadillac has released a new promotional video for the 2011 CTS-V Sport Wagon.

Essentially a walk-around with Cadillac's Design Director, Clay Dean, the video highlights the key attributes of the high-performance wagon. Major features include a rear spoiler (with an integrated third brake light), 25.4 cubic feet of cargo capacity (58 cubic feet with the seats folded down), Recaro seats, Magnetic Ride Control, Brembo brakes, and 19-inch wheels outfitted with Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires.

The CTS-V Sport Wagon is powered by a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 with 556 horsepower (415 kW / 564 PS) and 551 lb-ft (747 Nm) of torque. It will likely enable the car to accelerate from 0-60 mph in less than 4.5 seconds (official performance data is still pending).
Sorry if repost...

A great-looking car. This one of the few (the very few) vehicles in production today that, IMO, really has good looks. Most of today's vehicles (yes, some Subarus too), even if I like the mechanicals underneath, turn me off at least somewhat in the looks department. The CTS is about as pure as they come today.

That's a possibility, in black, for short people.

But why is that rear quarter-window treatment so busy/ugly? Maybe it will look better in person.

I like the look better than the sedan.
