Re: New cadillac naming scheme

Hmmm... I guess it started out making a bit of sense...

ETC = Eldorado touring coupe
STS = Seville touring sedan (which was basically an Eldorado sedan in spirit)
CTS = Catera touring sedan (I know Caddy has said this isn't the case, but I don't believe them)
DTS = Deville touring sedan

Logic would lead that a CTS coupe would be a CTC and a CTS wagon would be a CTW; I think B is dumb, but there should be a BTS, BTC, and BTW. SRX doesn't make any sense to me... but I think AWDs could have the X suffix... so CTX, basically...

Oh heck I don't know. It angers me that it's already confusing and they might very well make it more so.
