I will... because in about 2 years I will be able to go down to my Cadillac dealer and buy that gorgeous Cadillac XTS to replace my CTS-V... right after I get my Chevy Volt to replace my G6.

Having essentially one engine base (the HF) is both logical and cost efficient. They seemed to have adopted this strategy across the board. The V8s are LSs, the 4 Cyl are Ecotecs, the V6s are HFs
actually the altas is the 4.2
