What would be interesting is if the components for the WXF option for the Bluetooth wiring provisions could be purchased from the dealer and retrofitted to 2008 models. I believe it uses the same microphone that OnStar does. |

Deleting Blue Chip?! We receive comments all the time about how beautiful ours is. Maybe the color and the FE3 will make it more of a collector's item someday. |

Check ur dealer, they may have a Blue Diamond DTS and you can really gain an appreciation for it! |

Does anyone know if blue diamond will be the same as "stealth grey" on the Escalade - because that looks really blue. |

Very simply, Cadillac.com SUCKS!. They never update. My dealer has a Blue Diamond DTS on the lot! |

No, blue diamond will not be the same as stealth gray. |

Will "Black Ice" be on any other GM models in showrooms soon? |

I think it looks too dark and since the metallic flake is scattered lightly more towards the surface, it looks like thre is overspray or pollen on the surface, i keep wanting to wipe it off, haha. |

Does anyone know if the 09 model will offer the Direct Injection engine with Manual transmission on an FE2 suspension? I believe the 08 DI manual is only available on an FE3 suspension with Summer tires. I want a manual, the DI, but not Summer tires (I live in the Northeast) and I think the FE3 suspension will be too hard. |

I still see the same limitation for 2009 - DI RWD model allows Manual only with FE3. Bummer. |

It states the Nav screen will be 10" on 2009.
What size is the 2008 screen?
Is the Nav system changing or just a larger screen? How will get larger screen without change in dash system? |

Straight from Dealerworld: Audio system with navigation, AM/FM stereo with CD/DVD player, MP3 playback, Bose 5.1 Cabin Surround Sound 10-speaker system and HDD-based navigation with XM NavTraffic/Real Time Weather, 8" pop-up screen, Radio Data System (RDS), 40GB Hard Drive Device (HDD), USB with audio connectivity and steering wheel controls
1 - Included in (PDQ) CTS Premium Collection. Requires (PDP) CTS Luxury Collection or (PDR) CTS Performance Collection. Not available with (PDW) Performance Luxury Package or (U2S) AM/FM stereo with CD/DVD player, MP3 playback and Bose 5.1 Cabin Surround Sound 10-speaker system.
Very clearly states 8" screen. I do believe a 10" screen would require a dashboard redesign. | | Cadillac Discussion Tools | | |
