If you have never owned a luxury sedan - give yourself a month to learn about the features , where they are and how to program them. I transferred from a Cadillac XTS to my CT 6 so my learning curve was much shorter but the surround vision was great, USB and Hot spot features take some getting used to, ONSTAR uses the built in Navigation system - you need to understand the interface features between Onstar and the onboard Navigation system - the one feature that is confusing is the memory setting from your remote key bob - they are not numbered anymore for some reason so you can confuse the memory setting for the seats and mirrors if you transfer remote keys - this is the one feature you should have the dealer explain before you drive your car away - it will save time later. Other than that - curl up with the instructions books and enjoy. After more than a year - I would add that the Premium Red car color is great as well - My car is outside 24/7 and looks clean all the time except during pollen season :) Now 3 years in and I still love the car but will be replacing it with a 2020 Lexus LS 500 F Sport next week. I wanted to upgrade my car to a Double Turbo CT 6 Sport Premium Luxury but GM discontinued that engine and car and essentially discontinued me after driving Cadillac's since 2006

i bought this preowned certified 2017 Cadillac CT 6. Lovely car but two weeks after i got it transmission is like clanking and vibrates when it goes into a lower gear. My wife was in the passenger seat and thought the car was coming apart.

It is everything I expected from Cadillac. Love the comfort and handling as well as the beautiful design. Gas mileage is great, average a little over 28 mpg on a recent 3,000 mi trip.

OLD GRAY MAYER AINT WHAT SHE USED tO BE

Ride is awful for a Caddy. Low profile tires is the culprit. hit a curb, no tire scrape just grinding of the very expensive wheel. It happened with my 2013 XTS and the CT6 with same type of low tire will cause the same problem in addition to causing a bumpy ride. The smoooth Caddy ride generated a lofty reputation. It is sad that it is being abandoned due to wrong tire height is being used.

Money pit CT6

When I bought this I expected transmission issues but there are a lot of hidden issues that the dealer should have been aware of and didn't address before they put the car up for sale. All four wheels are bent and need to be replaced because the car shakes very badly. I also think the shocks/struts are bad due to all the vibration. The sales manager did drive the car so he should have noticed it and had his shop look at the cause. The struts can cost up to $900 eack and the wheels from $300 to $500 on Ebay. I did request their mechanic drive the car and see what issues there would be because I had to fly in to see the car to buy it. I was hoping that the vibration was due to the tires needing to be balanced. This car does not cushion the road like the 2 others I had driven. My test drive was a bit short and not on a highway so most of these problems did not show up until my drive home. They did give my a limited warranty but at over 300 miles away I'm not sure how well that will work out. Worse case is I'll to drive it back and let them fix everything. That would cost around $500 for gas, tolls and an overnight stay at a hotel.
