Interestingly, CTSes used to be quite prevalent in the National fleet at DCA until they suddenly departed for several years. It seems they're now making a comeback (along with CTS wagon variants, no coupes yet), and they're no longer UXARs, hooray! They're actually LCARs, and better equipped than the other LCAR option, 2012 Lincoln MKZs. I guess they've replaced the now defunct DTS sedan, which used to be the LCAR workhorse.

Also, Hertz and National seem to order their CTSes in the same trim level, the second highest "Performance" trim, which comes well equipped with many options, including panoramic UltraView roof, upgraded audio.
