2013 Cadillac ATS Luxury 4dr Sedan AWD (3.6L 6cyl 6A)
I've had this car for a few weeks. And it's everything I was hoping it would be, and more. I've been reading for the past 30 years in Car & Driver and Motor Trend about how great the driving experience of the BMW 3-Series was. During all of that time I was hoping like crazy that either Cadillac or Lincoln would develop and produce a direct competitor to the German entry level sport … sedans. Lincoln hasn't yet, Cadillac finally did. Kudos to GM for not dropping the development of this model during their bankruptcy. The ATS's handling and steering feedback is just amazing. The ride is what you SHOULD expect from a compact sport sedan. Hey, it's not your Grandpa's land yacht!!!

GM stands behind their dealers, so the dealer takes the bullet.
Purchased 2013 ATS, car is in shop on average of once every 8 weeks. 13+ items had to be fixed in 2 years. GM no longer has extended warranty, and they will not pay for extended warranty. GM will take NO RESPONSIBILITY for the poor quality. List of items and how many times they had to be fixed:
QUE 4 times
Sunroof 3 … times
Sterling wheel 2 times
Drivers seat 2 times
Awesome, Sporty Ride!!

2013 Cadillac ATS Luxury 4dr Sedan AWD (3.6L 6cyl 6A)
This is a true diamond in the rough sport sedan. Driving a $51k car that I bought for the price of a new Honda Civic. I drove Lexus IS-250's and BMW 3 series and this was way more enjoyable to drive. Interior space is tight for backseat passengers but the driver and front passenger have loads of room (I'm 6'5" 250 lbs). The CUE system is easily figured out and the My Cadillac app … works great for starting car from my desk and downloading routes for upcoming trips. Overall I am very impressed with my new baby.
