Re: Spied again: CTS Wagon
From that interior shot it looks like the D pillar WILL have that reverse angle after all.

Re: Spied again: CTS Wagon
Whats with the "No Vacuum brake Assist"? Why would you need to idle for 60 seconds? Sounds like pressure is being built up somehow. Maybe some Electric-Hydraulic system?

Re: Spied again: CTS Wagon
I would think that GM would have enough data on Vacuum Assist(power brakes) to be able to put a unit on it. Plus, I have seen thousands of pre-production test vehicle photos and how many had that warning on the steering wheel and the driver side window?
But you are right, pre-production is pre-production. Anything goes....

Re: Spied again: CTS Wagon
The important thing to remember is that the final production car WILL have vacuum brake assist.

Re: Spied again: CTS Wagon
looks good but i have a feeling rearward visibility is going to go down the toilet due to the way the rear pillars are
