2008 Motor Trend Car of the Year Winner: Cadillac CTS

News flash to automakers in Japan and Germany: The eagle has landed. Again.

If
you were one of those who wrote off General Motors as a dying dinosaur
-- after all, it's been a decade since any GM car took home the Golden
Calipers (the Chevrolet Corvette won back in 1998) -- prepare to
rewrite everything you think you know about what's in the General's
store. With this bold, savvy, uncompromising showpiece of a sedan --
the all-new Cadillac CTS -- GM has leapt straight from the rabble's
side of the velvet rope into that coveted, highly selective inner
sanctum marked "World's Finest Cars." For that remarkable achievement,
and for making us grin like lottery winners every time we drove it, the
CTS is our enthusiastic choice for Motor Trend's 2008 Car of the Year.
