hey peeps.


I hope I wont miss my CTS-V too much. It was def a most fun/powerful car I ever owned but decided that I need to change few things in my life.


I'm 100% sure that I want CT Premium with almost every option but i have ONE decision that I cant decide!

White with black leather or white with water grey?!?!?!? I LOVE em both!

I've always had black leather but might thinking its time for a change (water grey).

Any input will be appreciated!

Rick

p.s. I'm 100% sure that noone has gone from 550hp to 135hps like myself. Trading in 2011 CTS-V coupe

I would go with the black interior... but that is my preferance. I know how you feel, I went from a 750hp Mustang to 220hp Fusion before I got the CT. I still miss the power but dont miss the 10mpg.

Holy smokes! That's a huge change in power! Most change I've seen on here is someone going from the IS-F to the CT.

I toyed with the idea of the water-gray interior. However, the particular color combination that I wanted (Nebula Gray/Water Grey Leather) while theoretically possible, is non-existent in the real world (at least in California). It was actually kind of difficult to track down ANY leather interior. When one came in in Nebula Gray/Black Leather, I jumped on it. Just my experience, but you might be waiting awhile for a water gray interior.

They just got white with black leather in stock. Might jump all over it.

That's one hell of a change! You'll enjoy the MPG and the less $$$, but overall the CTS-V is WAAAAAAAAAAAY more fun (My friend has a '11 coupe)

I know the feeling as well. I went from 850hp in the form of a modded '05 Mustang GT & '06 Magnum SRT-8 to the CT. For similar reasons, needed to make some life changes.

I went with the Caramel interior on my white CT and like it the most.

haha going from 4 seconds to 10 seconds from 0-60, BUT 20 to 40+mpg!

Black leather will show less dirt...

black will probably hold up better..light colors show dirt easy in interiors.

i personally don't like black, but if you do id go for that. so much easier to maintain
