I highly dobt you will see that depression with this car. Caddy says no rebates will be offered and no more than 10% of CTS' will be V's. I think this car will be more like the early 90's Impy SS than like a regular caddy. I had my choice of either color. they got a silver one in a week before mine came in. I think the black sets off the chrome better in the black, but both look awesome. There are 2 more color choices now. A dark red, and a gray. Its also pretty amazing that Caddy is putting out dealer installed options soon. Cross drilled rotors, a shock package, carbon fiber shock tower brace and engine cover, and a corsa exhaust. Its nice that you get to keep your stock parts, and its amazing that Caddy is even doing this.
