Just checked the application chart and didnt find 3.0L V6.
My friend wants to buy your product and is asking me whether it supports his car or not. Please help me verify.
Does any of your product support Cadillac CTS 3.0L V6? Its a wagon BTW

Didn't they drop the 3.0 because it was sorry and nobody wanted it? It was only available on the base "Luxury" model, and the 3.6 outsold it by a huge margin. The 3.0 made like 50 less hp and ft/lbs, got the same economy, and people just generally avoided it. It was basically made for rental fleets (much like the 2.7L Charger and 300).

Exactly.

I mean, I can see buying a car strangely equipped if theres potential for it to be a collectors item someday, I skipped some options on my car (the most common ones) to make sure it would be a one off, but with the 3.0 CTS, the rental companies buy them by the thousands, so it'll never have any chance at being more than just a used car.
