Now before I even begin...yes I understand that most of you will see this as an apples to oranges comparison...and I for one agree. However I'm curious to see what the outcome of this will be and want to see what you guys think. The 2012 Focus Wagon is sadly for Europe for the time being. Will it ever come to the U.S.?? Maybe...who knows. Now we don't know what engine the Wagon is going to get at this time but we do know that it will be an EcoBoost engine. Price wise it shouldn't be much more than a Focus Coupe. So many details are yet to be released. Now the 2010 CTS Wagon, in the other hand, starts of at $43,365 and has a 3.6L direct-injected V6 creating 304-hp/273 lb-ft of torque. This allows the wagon to get 18/26 mpg (city/highway). No doubt that price is going to be a major factor here as well as engine horsepower. What intrigued me the most of this comparison was the actual looks of both vehicles. The Caddy is suppose to be luxurious in all aspects...yet I see the Ford and honestly it's giving the Caddy a run for its money, in my opinion anyways. Both interiors are great looking which leads me to believe that the only thing the Caddy has over the Ford is engine power. So what do you guys think?? Who here will take the Ford Wagon?? Who here will take the Caddy Wagon?? http://image.motortrend.com/f/auto_shows/geneva/2010/1003_2012_ford_focus_wagon/28245703/2012-ford-focus-wagon-front-three-quarters_view.jpg http://www.egmcartech.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/2012_ford_focus_wagon_press_images_009.jpg http://image.motortrend.com/f/29421486+w750/2010-cadillac-CTS-sport-wagon-front-three-quarter-2.jpg http://image.motortrend.com/f/29421477+w750/2010-cadillac-CTS-sport-wagon-cockpit.jpg
