What pisses me off is the small lid used in otherwise reasonably spacious trunks. A good example is the VW Passat/Audi A4 situation. Both have decent trunks and both have fully folding rear seats but both have TINY trunk lids making it impossible to introduce parcels for which the trunk is large enough. Haven't looked at the CTS (trying not to) but this appears to be the original objection and, unfortunately, a common one. Bring back hatchbacks! Kal (who will miss the gaping maw of his 1999 9-3SE)
