GM believes it has a world-class luxury vehicle in the all-new Cadillac CTS (http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/27/second-drive-2008-cadillac-cts/), and the General is shipping the RWD clear across the globe to prove its point. Since 1969, Cadillac has been on the outside of OZ looking in, but an emerging luxury market coupled with part-sharing with Holden makes the CTS a great vehicle to end the 40-year hiatus. The CTS will hit Aussie shores by the end of 2008, with the addition of a 2.9-liter turbo-diesel entering the lineup in 2009. With Australian's love for great-handling RWD sports sedans, the CTS is a no-brainer as the vehicle to bring Cadillac back to OZ. The CTS wagon (http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/20/rendered-speculation-cts-wagon-to-show-at-detroit-cts-coupe-to/) would likely be a hit down under as well. And if you're reading this GM, we'll take that 2.9L diesel option here in the States, too.
