I've come across quite a few cases where some engine/powertrain/option was available in Canada but not in the U.S. I don't know why this is so often the case.

Engine/powertrain differences are one thing, but it just seems like not allowing Blue Chip/Ebony is an arbitrary decision.

I know standard equipment can differ in the US and Canada (I think sometimes even within different states - the biggest example being standard vs. optional block heaters), but differences in interior colour choices just seems silly, IMHO. My car came from the same factory in Lansing, after all

I never liked how they sometimes limit interior colour choices to certain exterior colours anyway.

Re: Post pics of your new 08's here!

I'm OK with them limiting certain color combos in general, but to make the limitations different between two countries that are next door neighbors is just nuts.

Isn't that how we got into the first war with Canada? You know -- the one chronicled in the South Park movie...

Heh...I think you're right.

Hey, maybe we should invade Canada and seize all their cool Blue Chip / Ebony CTSes!



Or maybe I'll have another cup of coffee...

Re: Post pics of your new 08's here!

Can I ask to one of the happy CTS 2008 customers to scan blueprints from Cadillac Owner Manual?

I would to model this car for a racing game but, unfortunately, I have just the side blueprint.

I need front/rear and top views. Can someone help me?

Re: Post pics of your new 08's here!

I will never understand this thread.

It's great for someone who is thinking about buying a new CTS, but for most of us that already owns an 08 CTS, it does no good. We already know what the car interior & exterior looks like, know the colors, features, specs, etc.

Duh!

Well I thought that was kinda the point of the thread?

It helped me tremendously in researching the car.
