I’ve had my XTS4 for a year now and haven’t had any problems. I drove a CTS also but liked the bigger XTS better.

Anyone have any experience, comments on this car? The MB was a very good car, but I feel the Caddy would be a good daily driver without paying the "MB tax"......Thanks in advance.
I had a 2011 CTS Performance model for over four years. I traded it at 104,000 miles. I had the nav/radio system replaced under warranty but nothing else.

I wish i had had it back. I think a certified Cadillac is a bargain.

Once we decide its time to trade the Highlander, our next vehicle will be a Cadillac.

I daily drove a 2006 CTS with the 3.6 for 2 years. It was a good car, with decent gas mileage and good handling. I put a 1.5" drop all around on it. I toyed with buying a gen 2 CTS-V before I bought my GS but figured it wouldn't satisfy me for the long term. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another CTS for a daily driver, although push come to shove I would probably choose a Subaru Outback (also drove one as a daily driver for 2 years) for it's better versatility. I know, very different cars. 😛

I've had two CTS V's . A sedan and a coupe, no issues except a rocking seat that was warranty and pathetic gas mileage but that was worth it. I think all gen2 CTS are great cars with minimal issues. I don't know much about gen3

2014 CTS is a very sexy car.

Well I just got a 2013 coupe a few months ago (2014 the coupe is the same as 2013, 2014 4 door is the new body style). I have had 2014s as rentals and they were great for all the luxuries like adaptive cruise control but I must say I really like the coupe styling better and the handling. 2012 and later had a updated engine that addressed the timing chain issues.

Same color as my 2012 sedan. I really wanted a coupe but with already having the vette, I had to go with the family friendly sedan.

Looks exactly like mine except for the wheels. My wife and I prefer the larger doors on the coupe . Makes it a lot easier for us to get in and out. Fantastic cars. And AWD to make it even better! I live in PA and have never gotten stuck.
