2014 SS or base model 14 CTS? - Page 2

Base to base, I'd probably go with an SS and get started on a Holden conversion right away.

Unlimited funds between the two, Vsport CTS all the way.

Drive a ATS there amazing!

I just bought a ATS 2.0 turbo AWD performance edition. The car is amazing, we were looking at a BMW 3 series and a Audi S4. Drove the Cadi and was blown away. It has plenty of power and handles unbelievably!!! It took about 2 weeks for the Que to grow on me and now i love it.

Or you could wait for the ATS-V which i could only imagine will be awesome and an M3 killer.

I love my LS3 but it just doesn't belong in that mediocre looking, poorly named sedan. I choose the CTS

When you look at the CTS and the SS in that head on shot that Fen posted, you see just how boring and vanilla the SS looks IMO. The CTS blows it away in the looks department

I would definatly need to drive both if it was a possiblility. i know this will make no difference in making the acceleration any quicker than the SS, but what does is the weight for the base model CTS?

Yes, the new CTS is an absolute beauty. I don't think the SS is ugly, but it is certainly not the best GM could no, maybe the Aussie's just need some imagination when it comes to designing cars

Base RWD 2.0T CTS is 3616 pounds.

The one with a clutch pedal... wait, that's neither of them.

I guess I'll go with the previous model CTS-V 6-speed.

CTS easy choice!
