Performance: Chassis tuning is awesome, ride that pleases Lexus fans, and sportiness that will impress BMW fans. Brakes are outstanding and acceleration is competitive in the segment. COMFORT: Front seats comfort is excellent and leatherette is top grade. The engine howls and buzzes a lot under duress, but it's actually smoother and has less boom at idle, low speeds, under low rpm/heavy load than my 2010 Audi A5 2.0T with its heralded engine. I'm 5'10"/180 lbs. and this interior is nearly snug. The rear seat is adequate for adults up to 5'10", if everybody cooperates with seating position. Trunk is narrow, but reasonably tall and deep. Great standard stereo sound beats my Audi B&O

Dream Car or Nightmare?

I purchased this car in 2014 and thought my dreams had come true. Beautiful car. Very classy. Sporty. What a nightmare it has become. CUE system SUCKS! The CUE is frozen on the homepage and will cost $2K to repair. Not covered under warranty. Several recalls including rear defogger, transmission issues, etc. Of course there is no recall on the CUE. Interior falling apart. Plastic parts just pop off. I'm collecting them for next owner. Driver seatbelt gets stuck. The audio is horrible while using the phone via Bluetooth. I'd rather hold my phone and drive. Navigation is only available through OnStar and limited at that. Climate controls have a mind of their own. While only using the AC, the heater will intermittently come on; even in 100 degree temperatures outside. Needs frequent front-end alignments and I'm a careful driver (don't run over potholes). I will NEVER buy another Cadillac. Please save yourself LOTS of money and aggravation and "steer clear" of this one.

So this my 3 car I have ever owned. I am an avid MotorTrend reader... previous car 1995 Mazda Porters (family car), first purchased car 2002 Volkswagen Jetta 1.8T sweet car, upgrades to a 2008 Nissan 350Z (great deal and just had to own one in my lifetime. Okay on to the Caddy just like most of us Americans we are so into our europena and Asian car brands. I know I didn’t want a 3 series as most folks say after the first year definitely 2nd you have issues. Okay on to the ATS the 2013 is the first year for this model. I think cadillac made the back a little to tight but the front seats are amazing and the leg room. I do think the leatherette material needs to be a little tougher.. unfortunately mine is tearing but in honesty the car is 6 years old now and I have owned it for 2.5 years and I drive daily. I must say the keyless entry should have been standard on all trim levels in my opinion but there is an upgrade FYI if u want to add those handles. My gas consumption is great based on current market 20-25 fills it up for me ... and I use 87 but highway I use premium fuel: the trunk space I don’t like and think they should have figured out something a little more user space friendly lol... I have had to change my lightbulb and boy it was a task but anyone can do it and save on funds. The ATS definitely introduced new Cadillac owners and the new CTS is amazing looking .. I call it ATS on steroids as it looks just like it .. I def want to keep the car for another2.5 years and then try another brand but this was a great value and great entry level luxury sports sedan.. more tech should have been in the car in my opinion also standard .... car is quick and if u get the right engine airfilter u can hear the turbo
