Its front drive. Like a Tempo, or a Corolla. Not only that but it sucks gas like none other and at the same time its not all that powerful, nor is it that fast. Or good looking.

It's a 300 horsepower V8 with 4.6 liters and quad cams. It's powerful, silky smooth, and reliable.

 Change to a volkswagen man. nothing better than German engineering 
*Facepalm* Mechanically Volkswagen's aren't bad cars, but when it comes to the electronics its horrible. To the OP. Personally I'm not a fan of Cadillacs. They are boats and they are granny mobiles for people who grew up in 30's. If I was going to go luxury I'd get a BMW or Lexus. They have style, class, modern appeal, power, and are more prestigious than Cadillacs. But this is just my opinion in the end its all up to you.

Is that why the CTS has been doing so well? It lacks Prestige?

300. Not powerful. When I think of powerful I think of 400-500HP from a V8. Ford, Chevy, and even Dodge/Chrysler have done this many a time. Not to mention, why does a FWD car have a V8? Its not going to move fast in anything other then an airport runway. Even then, its so damn heavy its not going to blow much else away. Ford's go that 405HP V6 coming out in a year in the MKS. Food for thought.

405HP V6?  What did they do, bring back the motor from the Jag XJ220?

Direct injection, E85 capabilities, two turbochargers on the V6 (one for the inline four). Ford's next "Duratec". It will make its way into Mustang, Lincoln MKT and MKS, Taurus, possibly even F-150, Fusion, and Focus. The handling on these FWD cars (not Mustang, F-150) will be catastrophic. Why don't people just make their cars weak and FWD, or powerful and RWD? You can really only have one.

Pretty sure that car has been derailed until 2012. I'll see if I can find the link. And obviously you've not seen some high hp fwd cars, even those doing a 1/4 in 8 secs. Sure it takes work but FWD can be very fast.

well its a luxury car, not a sports car, so you shouldnt expect it to handle like one. So punky is aparantly bashing it because it doesnt handle that great but is powerful. Lets take a look at punky's cars 1980 somethin tempo- slower than my bicycle, and probably handles worse than a dump truck 1994 cheyenne- under 250 horesepower (with over a liter more than the caddy)
