Very nice, I love the blue chip color but I am terrified of how light that interior is (I have two young kids). I still can't believe that the GM fashion police don't allow blue chip + ebony. But it's cool, the black raven color will be almost as nice.

Thanks. The cashmere looks lighter in the pictures than it does in person honestly. It's still light, don't get me wrong, but the pictures make it look almost identical to the light titanium. And its definetly darker than the titanium. That being said with 3 boys 10 and under, I am a bit worried about the color.

The color combo just blew me away in person so I ordered it!

I've been teetering on the brink of ordering a CTS, I just found a dealer willing to sell me a loaded one for 1% over invoice. But a little piece of me wants to wait & see the CTS-V next year, as well as the IS-F. I've driven the CTS twice & loved it, but having the roar of an 8 cylinder engine in that thing would be pretty much my idea of a perfect car. Anyway, if it was available in Blue Chip + Ebony, it would already be a done deal. I'm very hesitant to get a black car because of the constant upkeep.

But I probably still will.

I posted a few pics above but am having trouble posting more. Getting an error message that the size of the image 2280x1712 or something like that is too big and needs to be 800x600. Same camera, same settings as last time and it let me post. Any ideas?

How do I just post the picture without having to post a jpeg that has to be double clicked?

Thanks.

O2B2 - thanks for the compliment a few posts back and best of luck with your CTS.

I've finally gotten around to posting more pics of my CTS - after it was washed and in a bit more light.

Nice Car, thanks for posting the pics Pucks.

Looking good, definitely a classic combination. I still wish they offered a slightly lighter blue with more silver/metallic to it, somewhere between this and the Sunset Blue. But this is like a classic navy blazer over khaki pants, never out of style. Thanks for posting these.
