Why couldn't you enter your Wizard number when you initially made your reservation? Why didn't you simply use the Avis web site? Was an AWD used that was different from your profile? Perhaps the third party web site imposed restrictions on or even negated the Avis First benefits.

This is true. The CTS is considered a "specialty" vehicle.
