Question to thoes who are thinking about it..

Do you get a V8 Camaro for around 35k, or do you get a CTS coupe?

Well, if new cars were in the budget it would be a new Camaro for me, and a new CTS sedan for Karen (she loves them). Two coupes would be impractical with the baby.

This coupe does look great though.

Those rear pillars (I guess they'd be C-pillars on a production car) look like they might be a big blind spot. I wonder a)how close that is to reality and b)what you can see behind you at an angle.

Yuck, that short, tall, wide rear end just looks ugly to me. The front isn't very good looking either. The interior looks great, but from the outside it's

I like the CTS Sedan better, which I'd spring for before a Camaro.

I think I'm leaning toward the CTS.

I think I like the sedan better as well. Tripple black, fully loaded.

it kinda looks like a 350z, a Prius, and a Pacifica all screwed each other and popped out a baby with the Camaro's interior.
