Bingo, and that's why I think Pontiac is a difficult ship to keep off the rocks at this stage - no matter how good or indifferent their lineup. Many of the people complaining about the original GTO got over their problems when the price dropped below $30K.
I have to say, I am not a fan of the CTS' styling, but I'd get the CTS-V over this if I had to choose - just makes more sense that it would be a coherent, developed product with manufacturer's full support, and probably far superior long-term resale over a 'tuner' car. After all, it isn't going to be a common sight, either so it also retains exclusivity.
