Hi people,
I'm ready to dish out ~ 12 000$ for a new car this spring.
My choice comes down to this.
2008 Ford Fusion SEL V6 (AWD or not)
Fully equiped, they have leather, roof, etc etc.
Here are the other specs
or a
2007 Cadillac CTS
Fully equiped aswell
Specs:
The CTS has alot more "nice to have features" like double climate zone in the car, 7 speakers (fusion has 4), heated mirrors, etc etc.
I heard nothing but good stuff about the Ford Fusions, hard as a tank, cheap to maintain, etc etc.
I didnt hear much about the CTS, anyone own one ?
Keep in mind I'll keep this car till the end of my university studies so 2-3 years max.
I just want a nice, comfortable ride. I don't plan on modding it at all... I guess i'm getting old!
What would you guys recommend ?
