I don't understand the GRMs fascination with wagons. They are usually big and bloated when compared to the other models. Maybe it's just my growing up with huge 'Merican wagons in the 60's, but those things are hideous!!

Because you can haul your tires and other crap to the track, then haul ass once you get there. Wagons are honed out of pure awesome.

This! Also I think the CTS coupe is pure ugly but the sedan and wagon are good looking.

I don't think there's a better car for eating up road in cool comfort than a Cadillac. And it has to be black. Makes me miss my '68 Eldorado.

I still don't trust Hennessey- but that is hard to argue with.

my 10 year old loves the smell of gasoline at the gas station.

Sometimes she will yell out the window when I am filling up; "dad, can I get out and smell the gas?"

sure, get out of that car............as a bunch of worriers look down upon me.....

Keyword is usually. For the small cars that some of us like, the wagons have no appreciable weight difference, but an enormous boost in practicality.

CTS-v Wagon? Ehh, I'm not a huge fan. The Coupe though.... its hideous. Also, it must have zero rear visibility. I was behind one a while back and I'm pretty sure the roof of my car was even with his trunklid.

Also... put your visor down!!
