I absolutely love this coupe. I sold a beautiful 2007 Saturn Sky that was my 2nd car to drive hard. It was a pretty sporty model, I had the turbo. Pretty low to the ground and I always said when I start grunting getting in or out (I’m 76) it was time. I still wanted sporty, handling & comfort. I found a 2012 Coupe, cinnamon color. I powder coated the wheels and front grill black. I get looks and thumbs up all day long! I’ve heard complaints about the rear seat, they are valid but I drive so I don’t care! Right about poor design on trunk, way too small. My main complaint is the “chatter” I get when making a tight turn. The differential feels like it’s slipping. I believe it’s an electrical engineering issue. The sensors in the differential are not sensing the wheel rotation. I’ve had it looked by Cadillac dealers, transmission specialists and my reliable mechanic. They all say the same, no fixes. If anyone out there has a fix I’d love to see a reply to this review. Also I just replaced the bolts in the rear drive shaft, two (there are six) of them sheared and it was kinda expensive due to all the labor needed to get at the shaft itself. If not for these issue’s it would be a five star!

It Gets Unsolicited Compliments

This car has all the bells and whistles. I'm talking luxury features I didn't even know existed. And they all work perfectly. Being a 2dr. coupe, it's unlike most of the boring ugly cars and SUVs you see polluting the road these days. The 3.6L V-6 has surprisingly strong performance when you need it, but smooth docile behavior when you don't. Beyond that, the 10-year-old one that I bought looks, feels, drives, and smells like a new car. I'm very pleased with it.
