What We Like

•Unique exterior styling

•Responsive automatic transmission
•Crash-test ratings
•Runs on regular gas (except V-Series)

What We Don't

•Optional suspension's ride quality

•Driver's-side B-pillar restricts visibility

Once offered exclusively as a sedan, the CTS lineup has grown in the past few years to include a wagon and a coupe. All three body styles are available in V-Series performance versions, which carry the name CTS-V. Because of its size, the CTS, which seats four in coupe form and five otherwise, arguably competes both with BMW's 3 and 5 Series, Audi's A4 and A6 and Mercedes' C- and E-Classes.
