It looks like a car a woman or car salesman would drive.

As long as it is the CTS-V then it will be badass.

I like the look of them either way.

Not a big fan really, however I do like the new CTS-V over the old one for some reason.

CTS isn't a woman's car. Caddy's are very masculine and aggressive looking now, most women do not prefer the edgy styling. I like the new CTS styling a lot, but will wait for the CTS-V edition to consider trading the Escalade for one.

Earlier actually!!!

My friend has an '03 silver with only 15k on the clock. It is now her daily driver.

It is bone stock and she might be selling it soon. She said that she wants something with 4 doors now.
