Like any car I can find a few faults.The seats could stand an improvement like my wife's RAV4.However it's a good handling car and sure it has an occasional jerk when it shifts down at low speeds because it's AWD. I have the 3.6,304 hp.Too bad GM dumbs the car down with that 3.0 liter which a lot of people at GM dislike.

Changes from 2008 to 2010 CTS

2010 Cadillac CTS Luxury 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 6M)

Just traded a very troublesome 08 for 2010 CTS. Car is identical inside and out except for a few glitches. Driver auto seat movement doesn't work unless Driver 2 button is clicked each time, to move seat back. To move forward, must click Driver 1 button. Doors automatically lock, cannot open, with motor running, except to click Unlock feature.

I miss my Q45

I bought a 2010 leftover. The first week I considered returning it. Overall I like it, but interior storage is inadequate, mileage is less than expected and the visibility borders on being dangerous. I compensate by angle parking only on the end of the row and only making right hand turns. I traded a 1998 Q45. The CTS is not in the same class. I wanted to buy American with RWD and the CTS is probably the best.
