Fun to drive luxury wagon

This car ended up being my choice over BMW and Audi wagons. The styling is more distinctive, both exterior and interior. I have the 3.6L engine, and the 318 hp pulls this car with plenty of power. This car ended up costing me less than a 3 Series or A4 wagon, and I got more features and space without sacrificing being fun to drive. Very satisfied with this car.
It's a beauty

Came to this from a Volvo V70 wagon: very impressed with handling, torque, and comfort. GM should be proud of this car - versatile, well built and a blast to drive!

I absolutely love my CTS wagon. The interior finish is well done. The ride is silky smooth. I get so many compliments. There are so many SUVs that I am glad to have a vehicle that is not like every other one out there. I recently began using the sport mode and think it makes up for the 3.6l engine option I passed on. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone wanting a great driving vehicle with more space but does not want a suv.
Wagons Ho!!

I LOVE a station wagon and was thrilled when my favorite car designed one. This is my 4th Caddy, the first two being STS's and third an SRX. The SRX was my least favorite. Wagons are wonderful. You have the style, ride and comfort of a fancy sedan with the luggage space of an SUV. I haul around two Golden Retrievers and they like the comfort also. Although the head room in the SRX was better for the dogs because in the wagon they tend to hit the inside roof area and turn on the overhead light, they still look darn good in my diamond white Caddy. ;) Update. I have had my car for three years now and I still love it. My only complaint is the floor mats. They need to design a way that they stay in place. The button/hook has ripped out of the carpet and the floor mat is constantly sliding under the peddles. I have removed it from the car for safety reasons. Currently I have 63000 miles and it still runs great. Jan 6, 2019 and still loving my car. Just wish I had floor mats. It's now July 16, 2021 and I am still driving my wagon and still loving it! I have 86,000 miles on it and the engine sounds and runs the same as the day I got it. Update: today is Jan 22, 2022 and I’m still in my wagon. Have hit 90,000 miles and still running smoothly. No big repairs, just normal maintenance. We are retired now and don’t go as much but I still know my car is dependable and I feel safe driving it. Update July 24, 2022: Still loving my wagon. Hubby and I were talking the other night about what car has been our favorite ride since we have been driving. My CTS Wagon won my vote! Getting close to 100,000 miles and still have no desire to trade it in. Jan 25, 2023 Still loving my CTS Wagon!!

I was in the market for an AWD station wagon (not an SUV or crossover) which is becoming an increasingly rare thing here in America. As a current GM employee, this was pretty much my only option - but I'm really glad I decided to get it. It doesn't look like anything else on the road - and I really like that. I'm always getting compliments on its appearance, and it's really sharp in black. I just took it on a 1,000 mile road trip and it performed admirably. Great handling and 23 mpg on the highway with luggage, passengers, and a heavy foot. I could probably even get the advertised 26 mpg if I gave the tires a little more air.

I've been VERY impressed by the Premium AWD 3.6 CTS wagon. It's such a refined, tasteful, fun to drive automobile. The interior is really well done--leather stitched dash, real wood--nice tactile touches. The exterior styling is beautiful and unique. It drives as nicely as any car I've driven--precise handling, smooth quiet ride and a lot of power. I have the thunder gray finish-- it's gorgeous. The sound system is top shelf--I use a usb thumb drive and I have all the music I need without having to bring the ipod with me. I'm proud that an American company made such a great vehicle!
So far, so good...

It's a little early to give a real in depth review, but so far, so good. This is my third wagon, the first being a BMW 3 and the most recent a loaded Magnum HEMI. I never imagined driving a Caddy until I saw this beauty. The interior quality is excellent and so is the ride. Fit, finish and touch are exactly what I was looking for and are better than BMW. BMW has been stuck in a time warp for far too long. You can't really compare this to the Magnum HEMI quality wise, but HEMI wins the need for speed any day. The Caddy is no HEMI (unless you get the CTS-V). I had owned it less than 30 minutes before I got my first compliment. It's a pleasure to drive fun to drive.

I went out to buy a 2010 AUdi a6 avant and came home with the cadillac cts sport wagon. It handles better than my wife's A4 and accelerates crisply. Handling including stopping are outstanding. The exterior is an eye catcher. The interior is very nice, not as good as Audi but very, very nice. I race cars for a hobby and would like to take this car on the track. Yet it is comfortable enough for my wife to haul groceries in.

I bought this 2010 Premium model three months ago with $13,000 discount. The Performance and Fun to Drive factors are the best I have ever owned. Previously I have had Mercedes, Lincoln, and Chrysler models. A comparison with BMW, Mercedes, Audi proves that this car is superior in every respect. Cadillac has truly taken the lead According to my Diagnostic Report I won't have the change the oil for 11,000 miles and it uses regular fuel. I get 17mpg around town and 28mpg on the highway.
Wagons r Cool

I was looking at the SRX and left with the CTS wagon. Looks and drives great. It gets long looks and thumbs up at gas station and cross walks. Maybe with 3.6 I'd give 10 on performance, but still fun to drive.

3.0 v6 packs a punch for what it is. The car is the perfect size, it is nimble and aggressive. However the AWD isnt perfect, the carrier bearing has given out once.... Well u joint broke and sheered the bolts. It was unfortunate, but I got rid of the vehicle

After driving Corvettes and some some German models for years, I find the CTS Sport Wagon to be very well built, Extremely comfortable, very responsive and well tuned suspension. The 3.6 delivers more than ample power, I ordered the 19" summer package as well and like the FE3 Brakes, I don't find the ride to suffer at all with the sport suspension, quite comfortable. The styling of the Wagon does turn heads that's for sure, I like the stance of the wagon better than the sedan. I am going to the auto show this weekend to check out the Coupe as I may well trade my camaro for one.
Love It

This is an amazing machine. It handles like the regular CTS but way smoother. I love driving this thing around town. I get lots of looks and I can't blame them. I test drove BMW 3 and 5 series wagon, Mercedes E wagon, but they couldn't compare to this car. Stellar job. Would and will buy next years model without second thought

Traded my C5 Roadster for this on a rainy day. Drives great in rain snow and the panoramic sunroof is for all the other days. Was told the CTS-V goes through brakes and tires like crazy. I have 67K miles and the original brakes and tires. Performance and mpg on regular gas is phenomenal! The AWD system puts all the power to the ground and does not embarrass. GPS would not update and went on the fritz. Cadillac replaced it under warranty. No other issues.

A rush to drive!! Feel young with a tight steering wheel and the feel of the road. This is a true sports car with the luxury of a Cadillac. The ride is smooth and very quiet. The Bluetooth technology is awesome with hands-free talking. Bose system is the best and clearest sound out there. Love it. Will drive a Cadi the rest of my life!! The kids love it too!!!
Almost as much fun as a -V

Just bought it and love it. I also have a 2005 CTS-V and compare the handling of this car favorably to the - V. I find power ample but not breathtaking. I note that some car mags complain about the tranny Sport mode logic, but I find it doing just about the same thing, at the same time, as I'd be doing with my -V manual Tremec. I'm 6'1" and find the seating a bit cramped at the knees but still quite comfortable touring. I'll have a hard time chosing between the wagon or the -V for a trip.
EXCELLENT ALL AROUND CAR

I have known this car since new and I have a lot of seat time. This is a very competent car. If you want a hot rod get a V if you can afford one, but for a thoroughly pleasant daily, the 3.0 AWD is fine 99% of the time. Is it melodious? No, but it is competent.

This amazing one-owner Caddy Wagon is immaculate with amazing quality, comfort and performance after 87k softly driven miles. Someone loved this car. It's always fun to drive a legend and this one is like perfect, right out of the wrapper.!! Luxurious comfort and performance. The smooth 3.0 V-6 is perfect for me and everything we need out here on the beautiful East Central Florida Coast. Good contrast to my silent '06 Solara which is similarly clean. The car is so quiet it scares the neighbors. Most loved is the ride, smooth and crisp with great acceleration and strong handling. I've owned a lot of Cadillac's but this one is really growing on me. Great car and thanks to Epic Motors In Chantilly VA for the rare find. Tom Johnson Indialantic Beach Florida

Most trouble free and reliable car I've ever owned. 3.0 V6 has no torque, and is very underpowered. But economy is good at 22 MPG average.

Found mine in Sandy, OR at a GM dealership. Love the car and the style. So handsome. Disappointed in the leaking from the dual sunroof and price to seek the source.....$1000+. GM blew it on this option. Other than that, the fit and finish is hard to beat, i.e., silent ride, powerful and stunning design.

Worst car that we have ever owned(38 of them--some old clunkers)! Engine, transmission, driveshaft, differential, and real axle are engineering disasters! Ob scene noises on every upshift and downshifts.
Awesome drive
