CTS-V

Bought this car for my wife for Christmas, and she just love's it! Heck I even take it out to the track, now and then, and it blow's everthing away! We have took it on two very long trips, from Texas to Main, and it got 22 m.p.g. I even get 14 m.p.g. while raceing it! Top's out at 193.44 m.p.h., and run's the 1/4 mile at 11.85 at 121, bone stock! My ZR1 only run's a 10.73 at 131 m.p.h., and top's out at 212.68 m.p.h., All in all the wife's car is a 4,500 l.b.s. track gorilla, that will clean the clcok of just about everthing out there, in striking comfort and look's. buy one, your be hooked to!

V-series simply awesome

Had considered the BMW M5 kind of this segment until I drove the V-series sedan at the auto show. Had not ever considered Caddie but I was blown away with the performance. Gotta have the recaro seats to really experience the speed and handling or you'll be sliding all over! It's basically a Corvette ZR-1 with Caddie lux.

Simply awful handling car.

I thought I would enjoy owning and driving the Cadillac CTS V, but I found the car average. The handling is terrible as are the brakes. It is not enough to bolt on a powerful engine, spend money on tv advertising and hope for the best. I no longer own mine and I would never recommend this car to anyone.

Best Cadillac I ever owned

Bought this car 3 weeks ago and love it. I traded my 2008 Chevy Malibu LTZ in when the check engine light came on. The only thing that I don't like is that my CTS did no come with the remote start. Other than that my car is fantastic.

Style & Comfort all in one package!

This is my first Cadillac CTS & I am very impressed with both the styling & comfort. The car handles very well & seats five with the look of a sports car!

Corvette performance in a four door sedan

I recently purchased a new 2010 black CTS-V sedan with 6-speed auto transmission, standard seats, roof delete and with Midnight Sapele wood trim. This is a truly amazing car that makes me look forward every day to my next drive. I have had high performance cars all my life (I am 68), but this car has them all beat. Perhaps it is not quite a fast as my 2008 Z06 Corvette, nor are the seats quite a comfortable as my 2006 Chrysler 300 SRT8, nor is the gas milage near as good as my wife's 2008 Acura TL Type S, but for a sheer superior package that does everything better than you could ever imagine, this is the automobile. The paint is absolutely perfect (no orange peel) with a beautiful sheen that looks like a black mirror. The interior is of high quality with no gaps and the extra cost Sapele wood adds that special luxury look that sets it off even more. The handling is truly amazing as you just turn it to the direction you want to go and it just goes there with no drama. The brakes will supply negative g-forces that will bring this 2-ton beast to a standstill with no fade time after time. As for acceleration, "unbelievable" is the only word that comes to mind. There is just a seeming unlimited, linear thrust that will handle every situation with ease. Again, no drama, just power. With my automobile experiences over the years and at my age, it takes a lot to get my juices flowing. This car does that. GM has created a truly world class automobile that can stay with or beat anything the rest of the world can throw our way. Oh yes, the navigation system is easy to use and the radio sounds great and is also user friendly.

I was shocked

In had the CTS as a company car after I came back from Europe. In the UK I was driving a S4 from Audi. This Cadillac CTS is a shame for American Engineering, I know we can do better. Horrible design- looks like a Opel from the 1970ties. Very poor comfort - absolutely no power for a 304hp engine- I was shocked. After six weeks I was able to talk my boss into returning the CTS. Thank you. Got a BMW 335 now - and I am happy again.
