The Cadillac CTS drives and handles great. I have a lot of confidence in it. I have the performance package with a chrome tip exhaust, 18 inch wheels, and a spoiler in red. The car turns heads.

Great Car Unless in Snow or Accident

Bought the car in '06 and loved it from the start, until the first snow hit and I realized how much rear wheel drive stinks. I was all over the place, must have had a few mini heart attacks on the commute home from work. The worst was a few weeks ago, I was rear ended and sandwiched between 2 cars. No air bag deployment and my seatbelt brought me up to the steering wheel, then decided to kick in and pull me back, the car just broke apart. I was sad, but will definitely go with something else now, with better fuel mileage and NO REAR WHEEL DRIVE!!!!

The power is supplied by a 255 HP 3.6L VVT (dual overhead cams) all aluminum V6 engine coupled to my optional 5-speed automatic transmission. It ts a very smooth combination. The auto features a very nicely incorporated manual shift mode that is accessible with a right flick of your wrist. Pull back and it down and it shifts to the next lower gear. Push it up and it up-shifts. All five gears are accessible this way. This car is rear wheel drive with a 3.42 drive ratio. I have found 70 mph yields an engine speed of 2,250 rpm, which is good for less engine wear and highway gas mileage. The interior is well laid out with the exception of the glove box which is big enough to hold gloves and not much else.

Lovin' the CTS

Test drove the competitive set (Acura TL, Lexus ES330, BMW 3-Series, Mercedes C-Class, Volvo S60). The CTS blew them away in comfort, handling and amenities. Took me 4 weeks to make the decision, but I went for the Cadillac. No regrets. The dealer was excellent- patient, low pressure and I was satisfied with the deal.
