I like it, but yes, this would not sell that well in northamerica right now, but from the number of euro wagons i have seen lately, i am figuring the market for them is starting to shape up.

It sort of has the look of the Saab 9-3 Sportcombi

Interesting concept. With gas prices the way they are, maybe it will force people to swap out from their SUV's to more fuel efficant options like station wagons.

But since when did anyone drive SUV's for the practical use?? There's too many soccer moms using SUV's as a daily drive, based strictly on image.

But about the OP, looks good but probably won't do well in the NA market.

When I read the title, I dreaded the result. But you know what - this is a pretty stylin' looking ride!

I guess they are going after European market? Wagon is still a curse word in NA. They would rather jack it up a couple of inches and call it crossovers.

Looks better than I expected but I don't think something like this will sell very well. There are some pretty awesome European wagons on the market right now and I don't see too many of them around.

Looks like a squashed SRX....not too bad actually.

I never said anything about practicality. But Im pretty sure once people realise that their Escalade is putting them in the poor house, they will jump to something more fuel efficant. Maybe not a CTS wagon, maybe a SRX or Buick Enclave. But its something.

lots of moms drive SUV's for good reason.. mine shops at costco has a huge dog and has two little soccer playing girls haha...

but i do really like the look of that.. reminds me alot of the Dodge wagon, the name is on the tip of my tounge.. magnum.

I like the look of it, with exception to the worlds largest d-pillar, but i am still waiting to see the coupe reveal.

[prae]

I would rock it without hesitation...
but i am sort of a wagon fetishist.

[Moe Man]

pointless, the SRX is based off a CTS, SRX is a crossover of the CTS, so why make a CTS wagon?

cadillac is starting to do what sunfire and cavalier did....make the same car and call it two names.

i guess that is because of very low sales for the SRX.

[schocker]

Well apparantly there will also be a CTS-V Wagon

Some competition for the E63 AMG Wagon

Exactly, that's what I was gonna say. What the hell's the point?

GM thinks that the CTS wagon will sell much more in europe... i dont believe they sell the SRX there and they are trying to eat into the market that BMW, Volvo, and MB hold over there in Luxury wagons.

GM doesnt think that the CTS wagon is going to sell very well in north america... their project sales demonstrate that.
