Everything on this car is solid,handles like it's European rivals ,if not better. My 4 banger hits all the right notes,exhaust note and...32mpg on the highway. The power delivery is right on par with all the expert reviews!

I love the low lighting in my car at night when I am driving. The car is a 4 cylinder but it has a strong motor and plenty of pep. I like all of the features like the back up cameras, lane assist, Wi-Fi, navigation, ac & heated seats. It is just a good car.

never buy a car with ride flat tires !!! EVER ! hardest ride , feel every little bump , forget about even the littlest hole in road , feels like front end falling off, REALLY falling off ! was in dealer 4 times replacing tires 3 or 4, another time 2 wheels, then after picking up car, next on star e mailed me the car had 1 or more flats when car was in my garage. I was right had a flat , and caddy is now not putting spare tires in trunk . S0......... had to be towed back to dealer. Got regional c addy guy involved for Boston area Keith (we'll only use his first name) was absolutely no use at all. said the way the car rides . (shame on cadoilac cts) So my story is after owning a brand new cts premium a cadillac for 6 months and traded it in .stay away from to cts caddy

The seats do not vibrate during lane depature. Other than that, this is one neat car. Good gas mileage, great ride for a car this size. Wish Cadillac would fix the vibration thing.

I traded my well liked Audi A6 in on a Cadillac CTS on the advice of a friend who owned one. He's still my friend but I am no fan of the Cadillac. The 4 cylinder 2.0 turbo sounds like it belongs in a Chevrolet Cruz and the often experienced "turbo lag" explained away by the dealer as "just how turbos are". Terribly disappointing. The info system is a joke - you're lucky if you don't wrap yourself around a pole trying to operate it while driving. And the run flat tires - when it's cold it feels like your driving on 4 blocks of ice. To add insult to injury the tires only lasted 17,000 miles. Handling was ok but not great as was cabin noise. The heated/cooled seats did neither very well. The Bose sound system is very good and about the best thing on a very mediocre and disappointing vehicle.
