All-new and more upscale than before
by permission of New Car Test Drive
The Cadillac CTS is virtually all-new for 2008. Cadillac has moved the style, performance and in-car electronics way upmarket from the original CTS in an effort to be more competitive with the best of the imports, namely the BMW 530i, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, Lexus GS, Infiniti G35, and Audi A4.
The 2008 Cadillac CTS boasts major changes to the engines and chassis that upgrade performance. The CTS offers a choice of two V6 engines and a choice of either a newly designed six-speed automatic or a six-speed manual, making it the only American luxury car still available with a manual.

All-new sedan and coupe are bigger and better
by permission of New Car Test Drive
Eight generations ago the Accord was Honda's biggest car but no one foresaw it as a large car. Enter the all-new 2008 Honda Accord, a mid-size sedan that's grown enough to move into the EPA's Large Car segment. Introduced at the same time, is an all-new, two-door Honda Accord coupe.
The all-new, 2008 Honda Accord continues refinement and adds more power, room, safety, and features-to-cost value. Content and engines determine the model designator, though all have the same roomy, functional cabins, array of safety equipment, and driving characteristics.

Courtesy europastar.com
A famous car advertisement jingle used to go: ‘Baseball, apple pie and Chevrolet’. You don't get much more ‘American’ than the Chevrolet brand. What most people don't know about Chevrolet is that Louis Chevrolet, the founder of Chevrolet, has Swiss roots.
Louis Chevrolet was the son of a Swiss master watchmaker and he was born in La Chaux-de-Fonds (there is even a road named after him there) on Christmas Day 1878. His family moved to France in 1886 and it was there that Chevrolet started training as a mechanic.
