2011 Cadillac CTS-V Sport Wagon -- First Drive

[toranomon4125]

don't forget: a supercharged 2011 GT has got over 600 hp...and it looks way way way w....better than a Caddy

[851995STARGATE]

@toranomon4125 yea, but can it hold a family of five with groceries and go around the nurburgring in less than 8 minutes?

[DizzyMan24]

Not you're grandmothers oldsmobile anymore. The stop spot for performance wagons is still the RS6 Wagon.

But, the Caddy cost's less. If only the Caddy was AWD...

[ZacharyPagan]

My kids will never be late to school...I on the other hand might be late to work due to my extended time drifting and racing ferrari's in this thing

[waterfordjim]

This could be the best car GM has made. EVER. :-D

[DarkCanuck16]

Mom will never be late for soccer practice again!!!

[CHEFGREG1978]

I JUST FOUND A REASON TO HAVE BABIES!!!!!! THANK YOU CADDY :D

[Travide]

if u took of 2 doors it would be the cts coupe LMFAO

[mdehee]

After Watching this vid I have absolutely no problem with station wagons of such sort. I suggest people - except yours truly - to bow down to her wheel bores and kiss her asphalt ripping rubbers and while down there take a peak at her LSD.

[buttnut1080]

Well thanks for that R&T.

[gravityhammer25]

So sexy I WANT IT NOW too bad I cant afford it.

[scootercraved]

porshe panamera.

[xandr96]

But in the end, it's still a wagon.

[xjohnparkx]

if i were married, id get my wife this

[tripleheshy]

What does this thing weigh 3 tons??

[cerrystyle]

@tripleheshy

It is less heavy than what u think

[Xmen1312]

Is it RWD?

[cerrystyle]

@Xmen1312

It's AWD.

All - Wheel - Drive, just like the Coupè and the 4 doors... ;)

[lilkdude8687]

@cerrystyle Its RWD not AWD watch the drift in the video. No smoke from front tires and on the cadillac website under build your own there is no option for AWD

[MyLittleBigBrony]

@Xmen1312

It's available with either.

[iiBlazeeee]

Just imagine the sound system you can put on this baby.

[cerrystyle]

@iiBlazeeee

I have got a BOSE SOUND SYSTEM in my '07 SAAB 93 Wagon. Do u wanna know how the system sound now? WELL... I definitely suggest u to buy one THESE ARE MY ONLY WORDS 'CAUSE I HAVEN'T TO DESCRIBE. :-)

[The420ninja]

Just beautiful...

[MrMayday7777]

I want a car with suede wrapped steering wheel.

[Dennissays]

HOLY S#!T at the beginning!

[THEbeastlySTIG]

quite possibly my favorite American car right now... that and the new ford tauras sho

[MikeBurke1974]

I'll take one with the Black Diamond package and the Hennessy performance V800 twin turbo package...

[cerrystyle]

@MikeBurke1974

Uhhm.. so many money u will spend.. But that's for a right cause. ahahah xD

[Ztime101]

i need a nice family car:)

[MrTlTO]

Brand New and the " SERVICE TIRE MONITOR SYSTEM" just turned on at 0:32

[tuugfo]

@MrTlTO it just means that thers not enough air in the tires, trust me my cts v did that and i put air in the tires went right away

[bighappyave]

@MrTlTO and just because of that you think the car is now broken or what?

[MrTlTO]

@bighappyave i think that for such a sporty wagon and the fact thats its new ,the SERVICE TIRE MONITOR SYSTEM" should not be on. If the tires got low under heavy use that would be fine, air them up. For all i know the T.M.S. is one of the things that might be turned off when traction/launch control is off/on. Dont know. A nice wagon tho.

[ricepaddy69]

@MrTlTO It must have been all the burnouts they Road & Track crew performed. You know they were up to no good with the car. Heehee.

[Wowmasta21]

@MrTlTO I have had a Mercedes S500 2004 and just got a new 2011 S550. Both cars have had that problem. I'm pretty sure that its just the fact that they don't need to be put on cars because they break easily, are faulty, and annoying.

[IMRKJMSBITCH]

Call a lumberjack cause that thing just gave me Wood!

[counterclockwise123]

I love big American stations wagons of the 70's 80's and early 90's then when the Magnum came out I loved it too. This Caddy is no exception!

[b1krboy]

I've always been a wagon fan and this thing is SEXY, I don't care what anyone says! F*** the Dodge Magnum completely, everyone seems to have one. And for my previous love, the Volvo V70R('07), I'm sorry, you've been replaced :( The grocery getter from hell has arrived, time to pick up those soccer MILF's.

[xoquixxoqafxo]

there is something so sexy about a wagon that can do smoky burnouts like this. Room to haul your junk and this much performance? Sign me up. The people who don't like wagons is there lost anyways.

[chibaboy3480]

Great performance but ugly as hell.

[BOLDLYGO2007]

Love it when they showed the instrument cluster the info screen said "Service Tires"! You think? With this car owners are going to be going through a lot of tires! :0)

[mousehunter311]

0:34 Looks like GM still can't figure out their damn Tire monitoring system. Every 2006+ GM car I've ever driven has the damn service tire monitor warning light going off. Awesome car, but god, that warning message gets annoying.

[kevin52495kc]

[Fun Math Formula]

Coupe V = You + Girlfriend

Sedan V = You + Wife + Your Two Children

This = You + Wife + Your Two Children + Your Dog :P

[kaga1310]

i can't imagin that the amaricans will buy a wagon even from cadillac. for example volvo kick's the v70 from amarican market and the next bmw m5 will not have a touring variant.

[ActionBastard85]

@kaga1310 You would imagine right.

[xxxxdarksidexxxx]

so with cady's like this and the zr1 what the hell is GM's excuse for not bringing back the buick grand national? They have a rwd NOW so Road and Track can you please, from a GN racer and tuner for many years and the original owner of one of the highest optioned 86's ever produced, please rub some elbows with GM and tell them to bring back my turbo 6 from buick!@@@

[greg94yj]

awesome, but not a fan of the "tire monitor system" light on... just sayin'.

[CodyLX450R]

I am quite tempted to trade my Crystal Red 2010 V sedan for the red '11 "Vagon." I really really wish they kept the Alcantara headliner I've seen in early pre-release versions though. :(

[cadillacseville00]

God damn that is the sexist wagon I've ever seen.

[FuriousPumpkin]

lol 0:23 they put the seats down to lower the car's center of gravity. You guys are hardcore!

[buttnut1080]

The sedan is obviously the coolest one of the three no question. I'd love to have one as an everyday driver. But then again, I'd like an Audi RS6 sedan even more so you M5 fan girls can go fuck yourselves. All sport sedans are nice, but the RS6 is a super sedan and the CTS-V doesn't trail too far behind.

[igotwhips]

let's hope they don't buy these cars back and crush them all.

[back2back22]

why do car reviewers always upload absurdly short videos to make us head to their website, i mean subscribing to their youtube channel isnt enough?

[JenDegtjarewsky]

Great video!

[JETZcorp]

The Dodge Magnum had a pair of massive balls.

This Cadillac has three.

[e40cally]

U had enough time to play around and do doughnuts and what not,so why not a review!?

[17cusTom]

ill take an audi rs6 avant over this any day.

[UFCextra]

@17cusTom you'd get ripped on by this car if you had an RS6

[17cusTom]

@UFCextra rs6 makes more power. and it has awd so itll keep up with the cts off the line. cts v wagon < rs6 avant

[UFCextra]

@17cusTom ctsv - 0-60mph in 3.9 sec, low 4's realistically and limited to 193mph, RS6 is 0-60 in 4.2 mid 4's and limited to 155mph, so I don't know how the RS6 would beat a cts-v. Wait, you can get the RS6 Avant plus sports option pack which will limit it to 188mph, but it still wouldn't be faster than a cts-v

[17cusTom]

@UFCextra auctually the car and driver observed 0-60 time is 4.3 seconds, and the rs6 makes more power which means that the cts will get a better start but once their both going, the rs6 will be faster. and ive heard an rs6 can do 200 with the sport option but i cant find anything to back it up.

[UFCextra]

@17cusTom 188 with the sport option, look it up, any way you put it, 0-60, 1/4 mile , top speed, ctsv beats any production rs6 avant any test, this V's done 11.9 in the 1/4 mile , no rs6 has done that

[17cusTom]

@UFCextra auctually ive heard that it'll do 200 mph despite the fact that audi says otherwise. and the reason that the cts v accelerates faster is cause of  the torque but once the cars speed up and the hp starts to take more effect the rs6 will catch up because it has more power. rs6 is also better in the corners.

[MoskvaMorten]

@17cusTom are you guys seriously discussing based on "what you've heard"? have you driven ANY of these cars you're talking about?

[17cusTom]

@MoskvaMorten ive never driven either, and im finding out if the source for the 200 mph fact is reliable.

[Ji99i3]

what a stupid video.... this makes me hate the car even though i saw one yesterday and found it cool...

[lenboy2]

your segments are too short

[RoadandTrack]

Numbers and our driving impression can be found on our website.

[MrGTR1988]

nice

[xXNinjaTunaXx]

yuckkyyy

[seroyer2]

BADDDDDDDDDDDD ASSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!

[vipermoon64]

Any numbers? No, what did I waste a minute of my life

[crazysoccerman14]

I dunno. The wagon is meant to carry the family around.

I'm 20 so I still ride in the back when we visit my extended family (about 90 mins away). Being the passenger in a car with stiff suspension sucks. The car may handle well, but you have to ask yourself if you are willing to give up comfort for performance in a family hauler. If you can buy the wagon, chances are you can buy a decent coupe for the racer in you.

[BMWBurnoutM3]

I like the sedan version the best
