new car...LTZ vs CTS???
ok so im lookin for a new car and im totally torn between a 03 trailblazer LTZ and a 04 caddy CTS.
now i know you guys are lookin at the cars thinkin wtf these are totally different classes of vehicles...yes that is the problem.
i love having 4x4 for the snow and somethin a little higher off the ground than a car just kinda feels nice. but....
i really think it might be time to get a car. and the only car i can really consider is the cts and the g35x. i wont buy a fwd vehicle, just dont like them. the cts is rwd which is gonna suck in th snow but im movin back to mississauga and there isnt as much snow here as there is in barrie. the awd would b nice in the g35 but my dad works at a chev dealer and i can get the other 2 options a lot cheaper.
i kinda wanta keep whatever i get stock...nice to say but ill prob end up slappin some rims on it eventually. i just hate how cops rag on you for havin anything, especially in sauga. and im gonna for sure tint it, its just a requirement for me..clear windows suck lol.
so anyway... help me out...i really like 4x4 but i think i want the caddy...unfortunatlly the only awd caddys are 40grand +
i even considered the yukon but ive heard rumors about gas hittin $1.50 this summer.....

ya the price range is killin me and its a strech right now to get it at that. the devilles are sick, i was drivin a 2000 maroon with a white soft top for a little (my buddys car) it was really nice but not exactly what i want in a car right now, the cts is a little smaller and easier to rip around in, i dont want a sports car, i just want something nice but still able to givver a little if required. the 03 cts is a little under powered (has a 3.2L 04 has 3.6 with i think a extra 50hp? maybe 30hp cant remember off hand)
i would love the cts but i really like awd or 4x4...too bad the only awd caddys are 40g's +
lets add a poll to this so i can get some good feedback.

ive decided to not get the TB...i looked a the 04 CTS dark grey yesterday and a 06 Maxima black... waiting on prices on both of them. the maxima doesnt have leather but its got really nice cloth seats, i was suprised.

i would consider the 300 only in AWD... i dont like the look of the charger, my buddy had a 05 or 06 and only kept it for 8 months...he really didnt like driving it by the sound of it.

Nice ride, and a little different too, not too many of them running around. I had one of these for a rental, I really liked it, handled really good and was decent on gas. If I were you I would lower it a bit and throw the CTS-V body kit and a nice set of rims, that would look really nice. I saw a real CTS-V at a gas station once and the owner gave me a run down on the car, really nice guy seemed happy with his ride I think you will be happy with the cts too.
