damn, this is seriously a beast, love that interior pure sexiness. better than anything Lincoln, Lexus, Acura, Infiniti, or Volvo has in their line ups. one of the best american cars on the market.
Great video! The CTS-V and ATS-V are the only Cadillacs worth their salt in my opinion! Even though they still lack a little of the prestige and refinement of Ze German's, I still think the V-SERIES Cadillacs are among the best American made cars you can buy! If the CTS-V had a more refined transmission and a performance- based AWD system, it'll be perfect!
Very angular design but still a little too boxy. I love it that Cadillac and ford are making advancements in their car designs and designing their cars with more sex appeal. Keep up the good work America. I'm seriously considering a 2016 model of tis CTS-V caddy.
Well.. Genesis certainly is KILLING IT alright.. Tiger Woods seems to be the first victim.. Oh wait he survived so maybe KILLING IT is the wrong choice of words.. But, Genesis almost KILLED HIM.. Praying for Tiger and Genesis!!!
Hey Cameron! What do you think about Audi S6? Is the Audi S6 better than CTS V or the other way around, taking into account that I do more of highway driving and won't use the rear seats much.... ? My main attention is on practicality and power/acceleration.
Hope this new Cadi does not smell. Rented a fairly new CTS 5 years back and drove for 300 miles straight. Got headache after being in the car for 4 hours because of smells like some plastic, or leather or glue inside the car. Anyway, this CTS-V interior definitely does not look $100k car. Not even close to MB, BM, Lexus, Audi. Probably par with Acura.
Cameron, this vehicle is awesome. I like the overall interior and exterior styling. My only is the pricing. Why does GM continue to meet the price levels of the German rivals. If they undercut them by 20 or 30k, these would sell in higher numbers. IMHO
I'd like to know why all vehicles with rear view cameras, even luxury cars, don't permit the camera to function unless you're in reverse. With my truck, for example, I'd like the ability to easily glance at the hitch every now and then when I'm pulling a trailer down a bumpy road.
SuperPhilthyrich Not necessary. For instance, the Lamborghini Diablo GT and Gumpert Apollo have no rear window (thus actual zero visibility), so they have rear cameras that function as the rear view mirror.
SuperPhilthyrich - You are misunderstanding the difference between rear view camera and back up camera. The back up camera is only visible when the vehicle is in reverse. The rear view camera, like is in the Cadillac CTS is on all the time, unless you flip the switch to set it back to the actual mirror view.
There's no such thing as a ventilated steering wheel, dummy. lol. DVD players on the headrest? ha ha. Most people buying this don't have small children that need mental stimulation. Seems your bain is non-functional. I'd get my money back if I were you.
WHATS FUNNY IS THAT THE INTERIOR DOESNT LOOK ANY DIFFERENT THAN A 25 THOUSAND DOLLAR VEHICLE. THEY ALL LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE RECYCLED MATERIALS THAT LOOKS CHEAP. FOR THIS PRICE, I WOULD EXPECT PLUSH FULL GRAIN LEATHER THROUGHOUT. FIRM ON THE SEATS, BUT EXTREAMLY SOFT WITH ALOT OF STITCH WORK ON DASH AND DOORS. LOOKS LIKE YOUR PAYING FOR CADILLAC EMBLEM, AND THE OVERPRICED POWER PLANT. THIS VEHICLE SHOULD GO FOR 75 THOUSAND BASE PRICE, SO AT LEAST YOU CAN GET THE POWER PLANT, THEN ADD ONS YOURSELF. THEY WOULD HAVE ME BUYING ONE JUST FOR A SUMMER TOY.
Heh... the 0-150 on this vs. a scatpack... not even sure the dodge would still be visible in the rear view mirror it would be so far behind. And unlike a challenger, this can turn on a track. This car beats my lighter '16 M3 on a track, so that's pretty impressive.
Taylor James RS faster than its competitors for 25k cheaper to begin with . More aggressive looking and better quality than BMW and on par with Mercedes. This car is a bargain for that price.
You can buy a 2017 camaro zl1 or a zo6 corvette and they are faster and cheaper. And the camaro camaro uses the caddilac frame and you get a nice interior almost every option the cts-v has. I just don't see the $102,000 price on that thing. But everyone sees value differently of course.
I like the V, but come on, there has NEVER been a caddy worth 100 grand. And there still isn't. This must be why I never see these things on the road. The caddy execs must be smoking crack if they think enthusiast will put 100K into one of their vehicles.
Morning. I'll tell you EXACTLY what makes them worth that much. Reliability and quality control. I may be a bit older than you, so I look at things differently. Speed and performance mean NOTHING if you are in the shop all the time and dealing with car dealership service managers on a first name basis. I have gone through this before, and will NOT do at any more. It is a pain in the ass and you can not enjoy your car if it's quality is shotty, or raggedy. Caddy and GM have gotten better, but their quality control SUCKS compared to the germans and they are WAAAY behind the Japanese. Trust me, I know. Speed and great performance mean nothing without the quality. Look at all the owner videos on that new vette. Great performance. Quality and reliability SUCKS. JMO
pm512 yes but this isn't a corvette. There are not threads and forums talking down on this car saying the things your saying. All the reviews of this car are positive
I read Reliability and must of died laughing the germans? Reliable in 2016/2017? hell no maybe back in the day yes but now hell no. Lexus is still number one toyota is Second funny enough buick acuallty climbed last year 2 third audi 4th 5th is kia Only 1 german made it to the top 5 most reliable brands, BMW barely made the top 10 and Chevy was more reliable than Mercedes-Benz and Porsche with Cadillac coming behind them but ahead of Volkswagen.Times have changed.
LOL, this isn't going to get anywhere near 14/21. A Dodge Charger SRT8 with only 470 HP averaged 10 mpg in the hands of a professional reviewer. This will be lucky to ever see above 10 in the hands of anyone but a grandmother.
Em Dee They’re actually useful for your body for picking at stuff and latching your fingers into stuff where as if you keep them to short you have risk for Paronychia, hangnails, and other infections. Like I said it’s not natural. If you clip yours good for you not my choice or problem.
K.C.'s RC it's just my opinion. I wouldn't pay $100k for this quality. They think we are stupid. I bought a 2000 trans am new, and the quality doesn't look any different. And that car was junk. I'm sure this is too. Not ground breaking at all. And I've turned a few wrenches in the past. Can you imagine a mechanic getting in and out of this car getting his greasy hands all over the suede steering wheel? A horrible idea. What wussy needs a suede wrapped steering wheel?
Dated and boring looking junk. Its not as fast as the gm claims. Look at the gtboard videos. Roll on it is slower than the current m5. Not talking about the future m5 and e63. Caddy will be owned.
