VE compared to current CTS...
Mildly interesting comparison of my recently purchased 2006 Cadillac CTS Sport; MSRP $40,240; 255 HP V6, 5-speed auto to new 2007 Holden VE SS-V; MSRP $41,600 (in US dollars); 362 hp V8, 6-speed auto.
CTS - VE
Length: 190.1 - 192.7
Width: 70.6 - 74.8
Height: 56.7 - 58.1
WB: 113.4 - 114.7
Front hip: 53.4 - 56.7
Front shoulder: 56.6 - 59.0
Would people pay $42,000 for VE here? What US brand would allow it to sell for that kind of cash? This car compares more than favorably with a CTS priced about the same but with lots more hp and interior room. Could a Pontiac-branded VE sell for $40,000+? Chevy?

VE price does not include tax (just like CTS).
I really like the CTS so far. Very impressed with steering. I was looking into a low-mileage 2003 530i, but this CTS drives just as good, and has a bit more power. Plus, I made major points with the wife; she's always wanted a new Cadillac. Perhaps they'll bring the VE over here in a few years and we can put one in the garage next to it...
