I think a lot of you are missing mgecuro's perspective. We're seeing it as , " Oh wow, the Chevy is getting the same engine as Cadillac uses! Awesome!" Where his perspective is, " Why am I getting the same engine that is found in the common Chevy?" He doesn't mind that a similar architecture is in the Chevy and the Cadillac. He wants something to distinguish Cadillac's version of the engine.

Sort of like with Saab. The 9-3 Aero shares the same 2.8 V6 with the CTS( last gen and I believe it is offered in Europe with the current one), but it has a turbo on it. He wants something offered on this new 3.0 V6 in the Cadillac version that you can't find in the Chevy version.
