>>GM has been a sleezy company for years (which was what drove me to Japanese cars).

When I was in high school, a good friend’s father went whole hog on GM’s new small car offering at the time - the Chevy Vega. After watching that debacle and GM’s non-response to his letters on all the problems, it soured me on GM too.

That said, before the bailout, I was really thinking about a Caddy CTS. They’re slick cars, and the performance versions are pretty incredible.

The Vega was a good idea destroyed by the unions and GM. And in the process soured Americans to the idea that a small car could be a well built car.

Now why would anyone pay out tens of thousands of dollars for a car that GM could repudiate any responsibility for by fiat.

A person may as well take the word of a seller in the Auto Trader, in fact I would over GM, etc.
