Well ... we can at least take comfort in the fact that the chances of a 2015 CT5 are slim to none, as it would have to be introduced in the next 11 weeks or so.

But lets see - CTS just came out in the last year - give them ~6 model years - that'd make for a ...

2020 CT5 V-Sport

Still just as bad as 2015. Maybe in the future it won't sound so stupid. We can hope ... can't we?

That got me thinking ... I wonder what the options breakdown is for Denali's. Basic vs a few options vs loaded (I'm not even sure how many options are available on those trucks, for all I know a basic Denali is fully loaded). I figure at least half are loaded (and I suspect over 75%), but I'm more curious about the folks who buy a Denali just to have a Denali -no extra features (or cost).

70% of Yukon sales are Denalis.

But what percentage of Denalis come with every single possible option box ticked vs simply getting the Denali package & nothing else. Thats what I was curious about

I test drove a 2014 Malibu LTZ and it was a letdown. It had the nannies but the road noise was bad and the rear seating was tiny. The one spotted in the car scoops looks a lot larger and hopefully a less road noise ezness.. I know it's larger than the cruze but when I drove both it was hard to tell, the Malibu needs to distinguish itself from the cruze..

Sounds like you want an Impala.
