Just purchased my CT6, so I've only had it about two weeks, however already put 2500 miles on it. The best car I've EVER owned. I've had an S-Class, two 7-Series and a couple cadillacs in the past and this is by far the best so far. I love it

I've had the car a little over 4 years now. It only has 26,000 miles so far. I needed it like I need a hole in the head (had a perfectly good 2006 Buick Lucerne CXL with the Northstar V8 that I still enjoyed but family was "ragging" on me to get a newer car that reflected my financial circumstances). The Lucerne, which I sold to a friend of my sons, is still on the road with 172,000 on it and still running well. But now that I have the CT6......... I actually sort of like it. It still turns heads. Mine was a brand new leftover 2016 (in Nov 2017) with 300 miles on it, and I got an appropriate deal on a two year old car from the dealership. It was also made at the Cadillac factory (then) in Detroit MI, which mattered to me. The performance of the TT 3.0 is not in dispute. It went 0-84 uphill in the blink of an eye (seemed like it anyway) when my son drove it.........and it was incredibly stable and quiet when he did it.....and mine doesn't have the super-duper steering package. Around town, it's quite smooth, but you notice the downshifting of the transmission sometimes (tight?), but that has gotten a little better with age and wear. The dash/interior is beautifully done, but I think I'd prefer some of the "old school" practicalness....like air vents that close and can be directed almost anywhere. The exterior styling is exceptional and I notice nuances every day that I missed initially. People notice it,,,,because its longer...and I've caught quite a few just staring at it when it goes by them. Trunk might be small but will be more than adequate 95% of the time. I don't do electronics, but again, my 30 and 32 year old sons loved it all. Too much for most folks, but comparing apples to apples, a darn good price vs Mercedes or BMW for the same capability. Car cruises nicely on the highway and can be a very good executive commuter. Back seat has lots of room for anybody but really designed for only two people. I've gotten used to the stop-start technology.. You can turn it off though when you get in by pushing a button on the dash. As others have mentioned, storage pockets for all the little stuff are almost nonexistent in the front. Over all though, not a bad package at all and worth looking at if you're in that price range. It's grown on me, and I'm glad I made the plunge after the fact. I also like that it appears to have held about 60% of its value so far, as these higher priced car lines are generally not "good investments"...just fun and safe to drive. I got the 10 extended warranty too as I plan on keeping it that long at least. With only 40K of this model sold total over 6 years (ended last year and not going to make any more here), it'll become harder and harder to find parts....but that's GM's problem with the warranty....or at least that's the way I look at it (smile). I guess they can always get them from China...where they're still being sold. .

CT6 is the Worst

This car has the most awful control panels. Nothing is easy in this vehicle. I have had it for two years and have turned most of the technology off since it was so bad. The turbo is sluggish on the start. Always seems that there was a trans issue. Never driving a Cadillac again.
