Sounds like a sweet engine, definitely a lease and not a buy.
Not interested in owning this one after warranty is up.

GM has said that they won't offer turbocharged engines in full size trucks but then again things can change.

With the CTS moving upmarket this will be a nice alternative to the BMW 550i, Audi S6, and Mercedes E550.
