I did the same thing when I bought my Canyon because the new truck prices were basically the same as the used options. Trucks down souf hold their resale value so well

Any interest in the non V CTS wagons? You can get RWD or AWD, a bit more space, and lots of luxury.

IMO those cars are ugly as balls, and the only saving Grace is the CTS-V drivetrain.
Plus $24k for a 40k mile GM product....nah I'm good.

edit: although not shown in the photos, I'm pretty sure those had rear facing 3rd row seats
Holy crap. I just looked at those GTI prices. $20k for a brandy new GTI with MT? Ummm....This is a serious question for me.
or forget your 2012 guidance and get a V70 R.

This is what I would buy if I had to buy a wagon. No, I don't care that the dash looks like it came from a Neon. Still way more badass than a GTI or a Mazda anything or some 32x with a body kit. Merica.

I actually saw one of those at my office yesterday and they still do look very cool from the outside. But holy shit that interior is awful.

THIS....
Having worked at Enterprise and driven pretty much every Chrysler product of that era during the time frame I was there.....
I'd rather keep the Prius.
I drove Blair's 300C SRT8 back in the day. The engine is Mercedes, the transmission is Mercedes, the brakes are Brembo, the SRT8 seats are really comfortable and pretty cool looking, exterior styling is great, stereo is great, and the thing was fast as hell. The dashboard plastics suck... so what. Try not to grin from ear to ear when you get into 425hp.
