Quick introduction - been a HUGE car nut since the mid 60's. I've owned something like 57 four wheel vehicles, 12 motorcycles and 4 boats. I did some motorcycle roadracing about 25 years ago, and occassionally drag race and autocross. I also put around 17,000 miles a year on the motorcycles.

Current cars are in my sig below. The CTS lease is up in six months, that's why I'm here. I've owned many Japanese and a few U.S. "sports sedans". Probably the closest to the Genisis was an Infiniti M45 a couple of years ago. I've owned a few Acruras and Infinitis.

From the threads I've seen, this looks like a great forum - and I'm a forum junkie!

Welcome aboard, Jim! Thank you for signing up! Cadillac CTS? I'm guessing you're coming over from our Cadillac Forum. If not, than take a quick look when you get a moment. After all, you're a forum junkie (like me). Z06, huh? I bet you at least considered a CTS-V.. Am I right?

Thanks for the welcome! yes, I'm on the CTS forum - same user name.

I'm damn near a God on the Corvette forum Okay, that might not sound right, but I think I'm right near 20,000 posts on corvetteforum.com

The CTS-V would be a hoot, but it honestly would be serious overkill for what I do with the car (okay, no such thing as overkill when it comes to power). I guess the truth is that I'm not as wealthy as I act I just can't justify the money or fuel economy for what amounts to a car for running the freeways in the Houston area.

Sounds like some good guys on this forum. I look forward to getting to know the forum better as I agonize over what to get as the CTS lease comes near an end.

Kind of an old thread, but welcome! I just purchased my v8 genesis and I am in the houston area as well, drove it here from Florida two weeks ago. I will just say that I no longer mind the Houston Traffic, in fact I hope for it.
