Comfortable, well appointed, great handling, terrific braking, and REALLY FAST. Very fun to drive. After 1 year: have not had any mechanical problems; with fold- down rear seatbacks I'm able to transport lots of items; still very fun to drive

This is my first luxury car in 45 yrs. makes driving a pleasure. I have never driven a car that handles this good. Handles the curves like a champ. Very happy with it.

The car is beautiful with it's volicity red exterior and black interior. New the car had a loose connector in the driverside door. Within twenty four hours the cruise control quite working and the dealer can't get the correct part. After a couple months it started working. The Continental Procontact SSR run flat tires are noisy and hard riding. Cadillac & Continental refused to replace them. Rear tire alignment was off and dealer didn't mention when rotating tires. Had to replace tires at 24,00 miles due to broken belt, replaced with Bridgestone Driveguard Tires. What an improvement with driving comfort. The way tires and rims are designed, it's easy to scratch rims on curbs. If you use Apple Carplay with the iPhone navigation or OnStar navigation the radio wont play. Dealer isn't very helpful with assisting. No one to turn to. Don't recommend Apple carplay. Heater don't seem to provide heat consistently when needed.. Controls are dangerous to use and drive. CUE system is as dangerous as texting. Had trouble with drivers side window lowering enough to open door. Took Cadillac dealer four tries to fix, but when cold still won"t lower enough. works ok during warm temperature. Told dealer what I felt why, but he won't listen. For some odd reason transmission slips in low gear it's self when it shouldn't. Plastic cover on back of drivers seat fell off twice, Had to pop it back on, Cue screen went static, but had backup diagram showing driving forward. Back up camera isn't clear on moist evenings. not sure if exhaust cause problem. Cadillac problem. Had same issue on Cadillac XT% loaner, but not as bad. Camera gets dirty easy, especially when raining. Car value depreciated over $27,000, in less than two years. due to dissatisfaction I was going to trade in, but own more on car than it's worth. Even do I put a $10,000. down payment on. Had this car back to the dealer more than any car I've owned in 40 years. It's a shame such a beautiful car. will never buy another vehicle with run flat tires.

This 4 door sedan handles better than any comparable sedan I've driven in years. It is nimble, well balanced, has precise, accurate steering; it is a joy to drive.

Nothing changed since the last review. THe car is still going strong and I very much enjoy the ride. Would get another one when the time comes Still fun to drive. No service required after 8 months. Had the car for 2 years and still enjoy having it. Little to no defects and very little service. Do not expect to get another one soon but would get a new one when the time comes for sure.
