    CTS. Sweet looking and will probably hold its value better.

    not rly, most caddies share parts with other gm stuff.
    2001 GT Special Edition - 208k miles, junkyard status. Part out in progress.
    2015 Mazda Mazda3 S Touring - 39000 miles, bone stock.

    hmm 04...in 04 the cts had 255 hp while the gtp had somethin like 260. plus there are probably more performance mods out there for the gtp...id go with gtp then if you want mods.

    Grand Prix all the way. If you were considering a '08 or up CTS then I would say CTS. '04 CTS is too close to first production and the upgrade potential is limited.
    CTS4 with a 3.6L is on my future list also but it needs to be at least an '08 due to the better mechanicals.
