The new CTS has the 6cyl that the new Camaro is getting right? I saw one of the Hot Lava Edition CTSs and really liked it. I looked it up today and they're hard to find. I think a SOM Caddy would be hot

Is there any word on the G8 truck thing? I liked the concept but I haven't heard anything else about it.

I like the MKZ and Zephyr, but haven't driven one yet. I'm guessing some of the design is based off the new Taurus, which is based off the S80.

The Saab's are pretty awesome. The 9-3 is really comfortable, but the 9-5 has a lot more leg room, especially in the back. The Turbo X was nice, and they were giving it away. Sticker was 46k, and they reduced it down to 34. I'm sure if it's still there end of November/early December I can get it close to 30. One '08 9-3 they had was marked down from 39k to 25.

The S60-R is on the list because I've always liked them. You can't beat 300hp in an AWD sedan and with Volvo's safety and reliability record.

The Magnum and Charger I like, but do have their negatives when compared to the other cars. First is gas mileage, second is comfort. One thing I was thinking is that if I can get a new DD cheap, I may get a new truck too. Diesel trucks are not selling at all and dealers are giving them away right now. We found a 2008 Dodge 3500 diesel fully loaded for 16k off sticker. It's almost like buy one get one free. I'm sure if I go into a Dodge dealer and tell them I'll take one Magnum that doesn't sell and one diesel truck that doesn't sell, I'll walk out with one hell of a deal.
