During my first month of ownership the radio had to be replaced. The keyless entry quit working after 6 months. Also, a "thud" noise when applying the brakes had to be fixed - I am still not sure what that was. The design is too low to the ground, maybe reason that the "plastic" front strip became lose and I ran it over it. The engine has power but it is not equally distrubuted the over wheel base thus the reason for the "black" soot on my chrome wheels. It makes the car look like it hasn't been cleaned in months. I thought the car looked really good but it is definitely not worth the money for all the little quirks that need to be worked out. This is the last GM that I'll buy.

I was ready for something new, fast, and American. This car fit the bill perfectly. The GM Employee pricing plan currently in effect made it an absolute no brainer! Coming from a 2003 Mercedes SL500 (which had constant electrical issues) I was really wondering if I could be happy with this car. I love it. Naturally, this is a car that would only appeal to certain drivers. The suspension is stiff, the handling is fantastic (18 inch wheels with run flat tires, active suspension), the 14 inch Brembo brakes stop the car well, the 6 speed Getrag designed transmission and differential all make this car feel like something other than your Grandma's Cadillac. Overall, I am obviously THRILLED!

The Cadillac CTS-V is the cat's meow! I purchased it as more of a trophy to take out on nice days and when I needed some adreneline and man does this machine have it! I love everything about it, and best of all it's American! Anyone looking for a well built, unbelievably quick machine should consider the V!

Driving the "V" is an adventure I look forward to every day. It's all whats been said and some so smoothly. The "V" looks very good, is very fast, very comfortable, very agile, performs excellent and sounds great. It is an all around great performer. It is a Corvette Z06 with 4 doors!
