Thank god its 220K KMs, I assume many people woulda flipped if it was a concours level low milage 996~ or maybe not since it is a 996 not a 993
Honestly it's the guy's money, if rwb works for him, good for him lolol I dont like it, but I respect it.
I also spend stupid money for worthless shit in other people's minds, meh~

Maybe it's the colour scheme but yea it doesn't look as nice as other rwb and I'm sure you can just build your own for less than that. Just buy a 996 turbo for like $60 then you still got $80 to play with

^ I wanted one badly, but the Caddy interior of those years were terrible. The Buick Regal had a better interior

Low key great engine but they are very much a boat.
The next gen ones much better, chassis/body designed by ex-E39 engineers.

6AT Wagons go for ~40k in the US
A lot of available ones were sold to GM employees and have all sorts of weird option combos; they figured out their breakeven for doing a V-wagon variant was 90 cars and did a very limited production run.
FWIW 2G CTS-V it's an internet fanboi special - doesn't drive that great, interior hella squeaks and rattles, tiny cargo area.
4G CTS-V Blackwing is where the car was really became a reborn/better E39 M5.

I was looking at black wing cars, but then you're at over $100k for an American interior, quality.

If you're diehard manual, it's rly the only thing with V8 manual left.
I think they have a general image problem more than a quality problem now.
Lyriq / Escalade IQ / Vistiq are changing this pretty quickly though.

Cadillac interiors are actually not bad now. I honestly could recommend it to anyone looking into getting good value out of a domestic. They will never be up to snuff to their Japanese or European competitors, but it's gotten a lot better.

Honourable mention to Lincoln. The cab company we use to pick us up from home to the airport showed up in a Lincoln Continental and the interior felt like you were sitting in a fancy American steakhouse. Was quite nice. I can't speak to their current line of SUVs, unfortunately.

I feel Lincoln can't compare to Lexus, especially the Continental.
Navigator doesn't compare to Escalade.
Aviator doesn't compare to X5 nor does the Corsair to the X3.
The Nautilus, however, is very much the new Lexus RX.
Roomy, great tech, comfy, hybrid, great pricing.
Corsair PHEV AWD is imo a great alternative to RAV4 Prime and NX though (again, Toyota system)

Too many drivetrain issues with Ford/Lincoln, otherwise when the Aviator(lux Explorer) Hybrid came out it was very intriguing. I love the Lincoln exterior styling.
The Americans have caught up imo, but it's a little late and they need to time to reverse their image. The constant churn though, doesn't help their case. It's been too much of "are they going to keep making this car/nameplate"

The Aviator is realllly problematic.
With Ford, the hybrids must be the ones that are using the Toyota system (Maverick, Corsair, Escape).

there were under 100 manual wagos brought to north america
at one point there was a guy on vortex that was making his own rod bearings. there was just no other way to obtain a set (and that was like 10 years ago) this car will be 100% mechanically written off if basically anything happens to it
they sound pretty dope though

Bro that's thing has been selling for at least like 10 years, the guy moves the price from like $9000 to $30000. Same with the 996 turbo for $108000 on cl. The auto transmission is also glass. If it doesn't sell Jack up the price I dunno who has time or space to try to sell a car on cl and keeps making new posts for 10 years

Imported from Japan 2008 BMW 335i Touring M Sport for sale on BAT. Located in Van. 2008 so it probably won't go to the states. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/20...uring-m-sport/

That's not bad but do you really want to deal with bat games and early 335 problems, you can always bring one in yourself. Also there's local 535 wagons that no one wants

The location and timing are probably hurting this one because with only 4 bids up to $6k at the moment this is stupidly cheap for a GTFour this clean, let alone an RC edition. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/19...-gt-four-rc-2/
