Drove the Cadillac CTS...
With my new line of work, I've been needing a daily driver, something comfortable, rear drive, that I can put stuff in, like monitors, computers, tools, cabling, etc.
So I looked and looked, and the Cadillac CTS offered all that, PLUS I could get it in an M6, and the lease payment was dirt-cheap. I was sold before I even drove it. ...and then I drove it. I have never been so heart-broken and disappointed in my life. The seats were amazing, nice and grippy, with good side bolstering. The dash was reported stolen by a poor Chevy Cobalt, however. Terrible. Didn't deserve the Cadillac badge on it. The manual transmission was sloppy like a $5 hooker. And the handling was atrocious. Take into account that it was the 2.8L DOHC @ 201 horsepower, but felt remarkably slower than my V6 F-Body did when it was first stock, let's say I'm not happy, and won't be taking delivery of one. My aunt's fiance is looking into a Dodge Magnum R/T for me, black w/ grey leather (I wish they came in ebony leather), U-Connect Hands-Free, 6-Disc, Moonroof, etc. Buyer beware... the Cadillac CTS is crap unless you go to the CTS-V. |
sorry to hear. I wish I could get a new DD.
|
that sucks dude i would love to have the money to buy another DD, but atleast u didint find this out after u bought it
|
Check the different boards for the CTS-V and you'll see a lot of people having problems with the cars breaking on them. Even thoughs that don't push them.
I think it's unfortunite because I love the CTS-V but the only thing I've heard good things about is the LS6. |
I'm having a real dilemma here because I can't get comfortable in the Magnum R/T, either.
It seems these years of driving a slung back F-Body have finally made all other cars... suck balls. :\ Every time I sit in the car, I want to have the seat positioned like my Camaro, but of course, it won't adjust enough to allow me to do so. I don't know what I'm gonna do, guys. I like the Audi A4, but around here it seems to be too much of a chick car. I need a practical vehicle for work, but I'm so picky, it seems impossible without going to something like a BMW or a Merc. |
BMW would be sweet. Ive always wanted one, and I imagine Ill have one at some point.
|
What about a M3?
|
what do you mean you cant get comfortable in the magnum? my dad was thinking abuot one of them, but he is huge on seat position, etc. but he hates my t/a as far as that goes.lol
|
Thats disappointing..they are nice looking cars too-

I just don't feel confident when sitting in the car. The handling isn't what I want it to be. I'm starting to realize horsepower isn't as important as how I feel driving the car. M3 = Too much bloody money to get new. |
i like the CTS V's thats one of the cars that i wouldn't mind having

Finally bought a car!
Today, at 8:02 PM MST, I signed my name on the dotted line, and bought a 2006 BMW 325i Sedan, in Arctic Metallic, with black leather interior.
Absolutely beautiful car. I loved the look, loved the feel of the seats, and the handling was just... *shudder* orgasmic. It's like the car knows what you want to do, at the precise moment you decide to do it. I cannot think of a better handling car right now. Everything just feels tight and well built. I am home... I am a BMW owner. :eek: I pick her up on Saturday. Getting a full detail and a polish. |
Very nice car, there's no way you'll regret it except for the way it looks.
|
arctic metallic sounds pretty sweet, and black leather in beamers = sexy. cant wait for pics.
|
sweet.......now :worthless
