Chilly here this AM. Around 10 degrees when I came in to work. It has since moved up to 13 and is expected to go as high as 36 today. Glad I can finally see my roof.

Chris - very cool. I can see how much more fun the CTS-V would be, but the regular CTS is no slouch from what I've read.

That Dr. Mitten sure gets around doesn't he. Must have a stellar reputation so should be in good scalpel hands.

All day meeting day today and for all the wise-crackers here is a in advance

This is just oh so impressive to me...I wouldn't even think of taking that course at half that speed on my jet ski which is about half as fast!

I would like that I miss you guys. But it probably won't be until the S is out because who wants to do a 3+ hour (at least) trip in a beater?
Are you still driving the Accord? I think you were worried about the transmission going 3 years ago... ?

to the CTS. Cadillac has come to play. Love the styling of the new ones. Glad to see they are becoming a real alternative to "Ze Germans"

Its funny to think that if 10-15 years ago someone told my mom, "You are going to give up your 7-series for a Cadillac" I think she would have laughed, or maybe cried

Doug, I just dont likke the idea its hardtop or no top the way the S is now. With a hardtop setup like the MB Sl's than it would be perfect. I assume Honda did not go this route due to weight issues.
Trust me Dave, I hear ya, I agree with ya, and I'm 100% in your camp, the retractable HT's are the perfect blend of coupe and convertible

The only other thing I can say is this, although the HT is a PITA to store, to keep safe, to put on alone, to take off alone, it is 1,000% worth the hassle for me
It's hard to put into words, as much as I just f'ing love my convertible there is something sort of like a paradigm shift to the car itself when the HT goes on, it is somehow more than just a Vert with a HT
Very hard to put into words, but something extraordinary for sure

Who else cares about the color of stars? Personally I dont.

So I think Priass is getting the idea. Came in this morning just a half second behind him, but he wasn't gunning for my spot.
Either he's getting the message...or he was just too scared to going head to head against the Frontier in his wussy Prius
Awesome!
