Car Sold
I have sold the car. Not because of any problems with the car, but because i updated to a new car. I am glad that i had this car as long as i had. I didn't have any major problems with the car. I would recommend this car as a used car.

Still enjoying the ride. Dread eventually having to replace expensive 19" tires. When I'm using the wipers, I wish they would automatically sweep once each time I step off the brakes (like in my former '01 Acura TL). Trunk door collects rainwater which drips into cargo compartment when opened. Badly obstructed side-view vision.

From Cadillac to KIA (WHAT?)
My last four cars were (I lease) a Lincoln Continental, Lincoln MKX, and 2 Cadillac CTSs. I switched a KIA Cadenza. Im not quite sure why. Price was not the issue. I really liked the car. Both the reviews and my impression of the car from a visual perspective made me lean towards making a change to a KIA. Frankly, Im a bit of a snob and dropping down in class caused me some concern. But once I got over the status hump and took a chance on this car I have been very much pleased. This car offers everything and more. It may be a little early. But too date, Ive found it to be a great car and not really a drop in class just name. I might feel a little hurt by not having the Cadillac name
The moron who left Toyota for the 2014 Cadenza
Don't get me wrong. I love the HD radio, the heated steering wheel along with the ride & handling. But so many little things have broken or gone wrong--the backup camera, the panoramic sunroof rattling which took 4 tries to fix, the volume control on the steering wheel broke, the sun visor tore, the seat belt stopped retracting, and the bluetooth is frustrating. I leased it thankfully because the value has crashed so to get out with 15 months to go would cost thousands out of pocket. If you love what you are driving don't experiment. Stick with the brand you know. I am now waiting for parts while driving a dodge loaner. It's nauseating. This wasn't the plan. The dealer tries it's best.
Enjoying my Cadenza Premium
Just purchased my new 2014 Cadenza. Love the room, features and pricing that under cuts the German competition by $10-15K. get the two thumbs up from strangers when driving. Kia has really stepped ups game to go after the large car segment and with hiring the ex-Audi designer, the car looks stunning. If the prestige brand is not a top priority (and this will save tonnes in service cost) Kia (and brother company Hyundai) if the way to go. Great work and looking forward to many years of use. Will update in 6 months time.
