Neighbor bought one. Does anyone on the OT have one? Is it better quality than the typical GM product? I see they have one that is over 600 hp.

Think you are asking the wrong audience.

Me either. Just curious as to quality and appeal.

I was upgraded to one as a rental car once and it was a fine vehicle. the fit and finish was obviously better than the other gm vehicles that I had been in....of course, that is expected because they are quite a bit more expensive.

Very nice cars. They’re pretty expensive, but I think they’re worth it if you can afford it.

For the price, go with one of the German luxury brands or a Lexus. Terrible resale value. Only Cadillac I’d own is an Escalade, and the price on those are damn near 80k +

Have an ATS-V Sedan Auto. Nice car, no problems. Rear seats are ok for kids, tight for adults.

The CUE system sucks, I prefer nobs to sliders.

Magnetic ride is superb, the car runs like a scalded cat.

Wife's ride.

We test drove the CTS-V...Scary doesnt begin to describe it

I don't know if such a light vehicle with a 600hp engine as the V has would be a good idea for me. Even at my older age I like to go fast. LSP would light me up.

This is referring to the “last gen” Cadillac cars, most of which came with the 4.6L Northstar V8 that leaked like a sieve no matter what you did with it.

The new cars are pretty good and are very nice both inside and to drive. They don’t make big floaty cars anymore. The ATS and CTS are legitimate sports sedans with wonderful steering, brakes and chassis. If you want a Fleetwood Brougham-type boat, look elsewhere. Cadillac went down a BMW-type path starting in about 2012 and they’re better for it, I think.

Love the new Cadillac CT6. Some of the best proportions of any new sedan.

That's a legit great car. They have the autonomous driving system called Super Cruise.

I prefer the CTS-V but the autonomous technology in the CT6 is supposed to be the best. Supposedly it doesn't zig zag in the lane like the Teslas do.

The CTS V is a good performance car, basically a Vette with a backseat.
It'll run 12's in the quarter and it's a nice departure from the usual performance coupes and sedans.
