I love it! I've seen a white one rollin' around London and the first time I saw it I was sold! I think it looks better then the sedan or coupe myself! I do tend to like real wagons (little s-boxes like Matrix's and Aerios don't count) - I like the Magnum for sure, but this outdoes it.

The CTS-V Wagon is probably my a time favorite wagon or Cadillac

I have the pleasure of living about 30 seconds from one of the largest cadillac dealerships in SW PA. I get to see a ton of awesome cadillacs all the time including this wagon, the CTS-V sedan as well as the CTS coupes. I also live by a giant BMW dealership but their lineup isnt quite as exciting IMO.

2011 Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport - First Look

Faster and more expensive. How about 268 mph and $1.95 million?

By Sam Mitani

After setting a new speed record at Volkswagen’s Ehra-Lessien top-speed race track back in June, the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport is taking center stage in the Bugatti booth at the Paris Auto Show. The car reached an average top speed of 431 km/h or (268 mph) for its record run, confirmed by the Guinness Book of World Records as the fastest production car in the world.
The only thing different about this top-speed car and the production version of the Super Sport are its tires. The ones found on the production version are limited to a stop speed of 415 km/h (259 mph), but everything else about the car is the same. Under the hood of the Veyron Super Sport is a 1200-bhp V-16 with four turbochargers. Torque is rated at a remarkable 1106 lb.-ft. The powerplant mates to a 7-speed twin-clutch semi-automatic gearbox.
The Bugatti Super Sport’s handling is also improved from the normal Veyron, with the Super Sport getting a slightly raised spring rates, stronger anti roll bars and new shock absorbers with a valving originally developed for racing cars. This gives better control of the wheels and the car as a whole. According to Bugatti, the Super Sport is capable of lateral acceleration of up to 1.4g via improved interaction between the tires and the intelligent all-wheel drive system.
So far, Bugatti Automobiles has sold 260 Veyrons and 35 Grand Sports, of which 249 Veyrons and 22 Grand Sports have been delivered. The Super Sport will begin production this fall at Molsheim along with the Veyron and the Grand Sport. The first five cars—known as the World Record Edition—are in a special black exposed carbon and orange finish and have already been sold. With Exposed Carbon trim the Super Sport sells for $1.95 million. In Painted Carbon, it goes for $1.65 million.

Space I think they would laugh at me if I walked into the dealership and asked for a test drive.
