I've own a coupe since the day I first purchased my vehicle. Cadillac ATS coupe is a real upgrade for me from my beloved Honda Accord Coupe that has been discontinued from 2018 model. The overall look is just great and I got so much compliment from my neighbors. There some pros I'd like to state; a) there are not many around and I rarely see the same model that I drive (see sedans but not coupe), b) distinctive styling and ground crawling design, c) high quality material inside, d) CUE is not as bad as the critics have reviewed, e) great power from 2.0T engine, f) smooth 8AT shifting. I must also mention some cons and they are; a) front seats do not recline fully, b) lane departure warning, blind spot warning, front collision alerts do not come with Lux model unless it is chosen. My 2013 Honda Accord came with all of them as standard features, e) gas mileage is poor. average is around 22, max. 33. my 3.5L V6 accord coupe recorded max 36 highway, 27-28 normal, f) poor traction on OEM Continental run flat tires. Got snowy day recently and the grip was poor. I expected better and now am worried about coming snow season, g) it would be nice if the interior noise was suppressed since this is a luxury brand coupe. Overall I am very happy with this vehicle. It's exciting to drive.

This is a great car as far as acceleration and handling goes. Plus, in my opinion, it's a great looking car and has a reasonably comfortable interior. The back seat is unsuitable for adult passengers but I didn't buy a coupe for four people to ride in. I do think the workmanship is very good. There are two major problems. I do not have the cue system and as I'm not much for high tech things, this is fine with me. However most controls are via a touch screen. Especially annoying are the controls for the heating/a.c. system. They should have added a few knobs instead of having to look over at the screen and touch the appropriate arrow. My biggest complaint, and you don't hear much about this, are the run flat tires which cause the ride, when hitting any type of bump, to be extremely harsh. I so disliked the run flats that I recently changed them out to non run flats and the ride is tremendously improved. Maybe I can only do 70 around that turn instead of 73 but that's okay with me. I put a repair kit in the trunk which includes a compressor and sealant and I also have Cadillac and AAA road side service so I am not overly concerned about a flat. Also, when you ride on a run flat with no air in it, you can than throw the tire away as the sidewall has been compromised. Oh, one other thing. The engine has the stop/start system but in 2016 there is a disable button which I engage every time I start the car. On the 2017's you cannot disable the stop/start feature. All in all, I like the car a lot but it took me getting rid of the run flats to say that.

Previously owned two Cadillac CTS and put over 100,000 miles on both of them. After just a couple of months, I love my ATS Coupe - smaller size, performance, style, comfort, technology - it’s the complete package.

This was really a genuinely fun car to own and drive. I drove the 4 series and the C class, and this car performs very much on their level, if not exceeding them both in acceleration, handling, and ride comfort. It instills confidence. What it lacks is the level of luxury refinement of those vehicles, and others in this class. Cadillac has come a long way in developing this car. They just need to get the little details a little more refined, such as CUE, Nav, storage. But if you are looking for a real driver's car, and you can track one down with low miles, I say grab it!

2017 Cadillac ATS Coupe 2dr Coupe (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)
10 of 11 people found this review helpful
I love the look and road hugging performance. This vehicle's turbo 4cyl. is very fast. It can stand up to much bigger and more powerful engines. The 8A transmission is the most unreliable and hard shifting piece of junk I have owned. It makes all sorts of noises at idle, of which two dealers can't seem to repair. The 8A's hard and erratic shifting makes me regret purchasing this car. Countless futile trips to the dealer have added to my frustration. GM uses this transmission in several of its models, so these problems aren't exclusive to my ATS. GM please fix, I really like my car, just not the transmission. Update: As of today, 7/11/2019,my car is back at the dealer and has been for over 3 weeks awaiting major repairs. GM/Cadillac has really spoiled my desire for every owning or recommending another Cadillac!

My all time favoritisms cars have been sports cars, from Triumps to Mazda RX7. The ATS is the very 1st 2 door coupe I found which gives the look & feel of a sports car , but doesn’t make the ‘mature’ lady driving it look silly! It is a vehicle filled with convenience plus all the safety features available. I’m more than disappointed Cadillac has stopped making them!!!

Unable to find the ATS Coupe in the color combination I wanted so had to order, not will to pay for only part of what I wanted. Being told it will take up to 2 months to get the car, which is see as odd since it is not a car in high demand. Also while shopping I found some cars had different options. I view this as a likely failure on who ever input the information, one that upon contacting the dealer had 6K dealer add ons, as I write this it is still listed on the interrnet at the lower price. I will be happy to let you know my experence when and if the ordered ATS coupe get here.

Do not plan on "great" luxury service that should accompany this vehicle.....the dealership where I purchased this from actually chastised me for being 45 minutes late to drop off my car and pick up a loaner...treated me very poorly then the service and body shop guys did not want to speak with me, while I was always very nice to them. Once the sales manager got involved and said I would go thru him directly, I said thanks but no thanks and went to a competing Cadillac dealership who treated me much better. But GM service for luxury vehicles is still not up to par as their competitors are, such as Lexus. Sadly, this will be my last GM vehicle and I will be going back to either Lexus or Audi.

Prefer to drive wife’s maxima for sure. Shocking how loud it is when driving down the road. Lack of cameras, and having to reach to dash for various functions is at least surprising. My bad for not test driving for a few days for sure. Folks think the car is sexy but regret the purchase. Soooo the clock has moved forward. Ended up getting lawyer after ATS was in the shop 27 times. Purchased wife 21 Supra and now driving another Maxima. This time an SR that looks pretty sporty. Folks, yo have got to check out the Nissan Maxima (if you can find one) and avoid the ATS at all costs

I love the comfort and style of the cadillac. The 2.0 turbo takes a little to get used to, especially if you never owned one before. It is actually faster than the 3.6. Plenty of power and I get 31 - 32 mpg on highway and around 22 around town but I tend to drive a little aggressively at times. I love all the amenities especially the lumbar seating and leather interior. It's a cadillac. I don't like the fact it's premium fuel. I don't find a problem with the cadillac que system as others have stated but I'm used to it since this my 3rd one with it. The one big thing I can't stand is the run flats. I hate them. A very harsh ride and I think it contributes a lot to people turning away from the brand. I bought this used with 39k on it and the tires were just replaced with run flats so I'm stuck for awhile. I think standard radials would have been the way to go. I do love the wide set up but they are staggered which you can't rotate. I will replace with non run flstscand that should give me a lot better ride. Overall this is a great car and fun to drive and can keep up with most cars from the European competition.
Worst car I've had

My first brand new car I had ever bought and biggest regret. Between the multiple issues with the car on top of the worst service and dealer customer service dealing with all the issues. For the price I've paid for this car and what I pay monthly for a car that basically sat for over 2 years.... I'll never recommend one let alone but anything Cadillac or GM again

We recently purchased a 2018 Premium Performance ATS 3.6L coupe, for the most reasonable price we could find with the lowest miles. It’s been upgraded with all the accessorie bits, including the Sapele wood trim and the rear spoiler. Our other car is a new 2023 Mini Countryman S, so I know good fit and finish and tight handling. Also Ive owned many BMW and Mercedes vehicles over the years to compare this Caddy to. Ride… is sporty. This is not the old living room Cadillac. This is an actual car that rolls over bumps and yes, you will feel some of them. This is what performance suspension is about. Handling. Amazing. At all speeds, this feels like a slot car. Comfort. For my frame, the seats cradle me perfectly, in fact I haven’t been as comfortable in a car since I had my 96 SHO. Tech. 2018 was the year they updated the CUE system and tho it does require a little time to learn I’m very happy with it. It’s voice recognition seems pretty spot on. I only wish that it would tell you that an address or name is not in the system rather than offering you a bunch of alternatives that don’t match.. Maybe that’s something Cadillac will address in the future. My car also has the whole gamut of lane change, active braking, and the like. That will take getting used to because it is aggressive. But this is not the first car I’ve had it in. Looks. You can’t fault this car for styling. It is as fresh today as when it first rolled off the assembly line in 2011. Cadillac knew they had a good thing especially in the coupe and didn’t muck it up year to year by adding new noses and tails. Power. This is as responsive a car as I have ever owned, with 335 hp and a zero to 60 at 5.4 seconds. Most people will never get to test that, but believe me, this car gets out of its way and everybody else’s way.

The Cadillac ATS Premium Performance coupe is a great car for a childless person. You don’t buy a coupe to toss kids and car seats in the back. This is also not a Costco runner or a Walmart barge. This car is to enjoy. It makes the perfect second car too. Its features and build qualtiy are far better than any previous GM car I’ve had and the CUE haptics are great for me. People complaining about them are just being lazy. Learn how to drive it! I’m happy to own such a rare car ( this version slots right in under the V ) and I consider it an excellent purchase. Fast, reliable, ice cold ac, kick butt stereo, and it’s got boy racer guts without the gaudy trimmings. I smile every time I get her.
