I wanted a large sedan that was very quick and athletic (and didn't need a lot of down-time being repaired). I also wanted a vehicle that had all of the latest safety and convenience features and was reasonably priced. From the magazine and owner reviews that I read, this was the car. After only one month of ownership, I can not address the question of reliability, but I can attest to my satisfaction with regard to the other aspects in which I was interested.

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.

Easily the best car I have ever owned

This is a very good handling car for how large it it. I have owned many (mostly German) luxury and sport sedans, but this one it the only one that does everything well. It is not the fanciest or most expensive I have owned, but the most well rounded. Please note that I own the Platinum which has a lot of suspension upgrades that make a difference! The braking is the best ever for a road car. The 4 wheel steering makes the car seem very small when driving. The suspension changes for every road condition and is VERY smooth and quiet. This car is quieter than any Lexus I have owned and steers better than any BMW I have owned. (Better feel than my M4 easily) It is also serene. No constant beeping at you like BMW. My one complaint is that the transmission at low speeds has occasional mildly hard shifts which should probably not be an issue for this price range.

CT6 Fully Redesigned, very Techie, Easy to Operate. Only downside is the Owner's Manual is a bit difficult to navigate; indexing is somewhat lacking.
