Many people in Belgium are going for the new BMW 3' diesel version because it's a BMW(high re-sale value) and it has RWD(sporty) if cadillac had gave the BLS RWD they would have won many new clients!
But I'm looking forward to your pictures (and post some of the Z06 and the STS if possible). |
Hi soupero,
I don`t agree because in this kind of car-class the FWD is a good thing. On April 2 my daughter came home with a brand new BLS from my dealership, just took it out the show room and let her driving it and she, my wife and me too like this car very much. Right now she drives the CC 206 (you know) but she buys next week this BLS she drove. It`s the 1.9 D with 150 hp and a six speed auto transmission, the built quality is excellent and it`s fully loaded (leather-navy-power seats-xenon-and a great sound system. Best of all here in Europe with this rising gasoline prices is the fuel consumption, you can almost drive 1000 km (600 miles) with one gas-tank of fuel.
The look of this car is great (in it`s class) from front it looks similar to the new DTS and from back it`s unmistakable CADILLAC. This car got it`s own look and that`s what I like. Even with this small engine you get 0-60 mls in about 9 sec and top end by speedo is about 230 kph (143 mph).
Why did your dad bought this STS in case of a 5 series or e-class?????
Another good thing because you`ve talked about the Z06, IŽll get tomorrow a press car (the Z06 or maybe a CTS V) for one week from Cadillac-Europe, how you like that?
Have a nice sunday
Harry
