Used 2014 Cadillac CTS Wagon Consumer Reviews
One year into 3.6L AWD wagon ownership.
The Good: Sporty Handling, grips the road, great brakes, decent power, no rattles, lots of room for storage, car feels steady and safe at all speeds. Absolutely great road feel and balance. Mine ran the 1/4 mile at 15.2 seconds at around 94 mph which ain't bad for a 6 cylinder wagon. Car takes 87 octane with a +320hp motor with a high +11:1 compression ratio. All wheel drive is great in the snow. THE BAD: Big people will have a hard time getting into the car. Sporty handling is a bit firm for a Cadillac that only thinks it fast (mine does not have Magna Ride option). I only get 17.5 mpg around the city. Maintenance parts for a 2014 model year can confuse regular service centers because in 2014 all other CTS models (non-V & coupe) changed the platform (new model design). The lack of engine torque makes the car feel slower than it is IMHO (the engine has something like 270 ft lbs of torque but 320hp). You really can't tow with this car but I think that's pretty obvious to most folks. ALL IN ALL: Good all around car that I don't regret purchasing. Cheaper than a SUV.

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

My First cadillac. WOW!
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
We call it the Arc
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.
