MotorWeek Road Test: 2010 Cadillac CTS

[andrewm153351]

ugh. the person that invented the wagon deserves to die. Thats if he's not already dead.

[macktenful]

The v wagon Is the most bad ass wagon on the market

[cactuscapital]

Motorweek = kiss the ass of the company that lends them a car. "We just lo-o-o-o-ved it! There's NOTHING we didn't like!"

[chips96iii]

@cactuscapital Motorweek wouldn't have been on for 30 years if that's all it was. Please think before you troll.

[UFCextra]

in this rich ass area in the hills around my house some middle-aged lady was driving a new v6 cts-wagon. I thought the back was crazy ! duel exhaust, it looked very very nice. I would consider///but i want the sedan more than anything else.

[chltmdwp]

Caddilac CTS? you mean Cadillac CTS Wagon? Motorweek come on... it's like saying Ipod Nano review with Ipod touch

[Fussinated]

This is probably the most irrelevant Cadillac.

[ThunderAppeal]

I subscribed when I found your channel, I used to watch you guys years ago on TV. But when I saw you guys were broadcasting that 'carbon footprint' crap I immediately unsubbed.

[j3zr33Lwiriwiri]

woAh !

It´s so beautifuL !

=B

[bakuntz1983]

not bad looking for a station wagon. I'm kind of shocked. performance numbers are good. tons of cargo room. a little out of my price range though lol. actually alot.

[gmman010983]

oh yea they need to market the NORTHSTAR like they used to...even though its been around since the early 90s its still a kick ass motor...GM CANT 3.6EVERYTHING TO DEATH in all there cars.....i still like the 3800 even thoug its old!!

[eemiri2004]

I have to agree the north star is a great engine but I have no sympathy for the 3800 it's those old pushorods that brough the company down. As far as the 3.6 goes theyre being smart and cutting costs just like nissan's 3.5 that you see it everywhere. It's gonna be the bread and butter for the company.

[blkguynlex]

I think GM is making far better business decisions now in terms of modern drivetrain offerings. Although the Northstar was a great offering years ago the substantial investment required to develop a new version would be simply too much especially compared to its low volume. GM's LS V8's are much much cheaper to produce, more efficient, lighter and more compact. As for the 3800, that engine wasnt refined nor was it a free revving engine. It should have disappeared sooner than it did.

[gmman010983]

i like the wagon but that coupe is just to much and GM dont need to make 5 models off the cts likes its been known to do before in the pass....other than that keep it up GM wisely....

[4MATICbenz]

I like this new wagon from cadillac :)

[JordaneX27]

This old dudes voice is annoying. he makes everything feel older than what it is.

[belbro62]

they finally made a hearse. youd pobably be dead before you finish paying fo it. now you can have a car carry you to your grave with the price theyre asking. gps means you wont get lost going to your grave.

[MacaroniKetchup]

I like the CTS Wagon. I like its edgy shape. I really like the sunroof and how it goes the whole length of the roof. I don't really like the rear windows on the rear sides of the car. They're too small and you can't really see out of them and its probably a huge blind spot. Really nice cat though. Kinda like a mini SR-X

[bdivy1]

I just wish it wasn't so small inside. 4 such a big car the driver seat is felt kinda cramped.

[seroyer2]

I wander if you can get roof rails that would be nice to be able to put skis on the roof.

[CentauriAB]

I always prefer a wagon to a sedan. It's so much easer to load stuff into the back and it looks much better also.

[boricua4669]

They making an effort to regain the position they have as the best luxury car in America.....

[MrGTR1988]

It looks so so so HOT in black HOT

i love to have one

[AmericanCars101]

@MrGTR1988 I think we all wanna have one!

[jas4925]

I am disappointed in the fuel economy of GM's direct injected v-6 engines. Usually there v-6 did get better mileage on the highway than its rivals. They must not be using the light weight materials like there rivals.

[wildbloodydragon]

The problem for the most part is weight. If you look at the weight of their cars compared the their last generations you'll be stomped. Impala weighted 3500lbs now weights 3800lbs. Camaro weighted 3400lbs now weights 3700lbs. Same with almost every other car, this car I believe weights about 4000lbs.

The issue however is addressed and GM is working on new platforms that weight less. Instead of 'updating' the older platforms - that were initially low weight - and turning them into tanks.

[hevvye]

i love the wagon even more than the sedan!

[minibus1351]

This this probably the only American car that I would consider buying. This car has something that other American cars seem to lack. "Quality"

[bg1379]

I don't know what American cars they sell over there in Russia, but in America this is certainly not the only car with quality.

[312868541]

@bg1379 name one good one sir. i live in Berlin and i haven't seen them here. tell them to ship them here.

[MrGTR1988]

o yes i think so too one very good made

car i can have it over A4 avant

[wildbloodydragon]

This is a luxury brand. Every car made by Cadillac and Lincoln have more luxurious interiors. This is what other cars - and not just American cars - would lack if they're not from luxury brands.

Don't you feel stupid saying that? Isn't this kind of obvious? Chevy, Ford, Toyota, Honda, Buick, VW, Mazda...these are normal cars for people who don't obsess over luxury. I don't mind luxury but I don't obsess over it. That's why I have a Chevy.

[minibus1351]

Stupid? Why would I feel stupid. It's my observation. And Why would I freaking compare a VW or a generic brand to a luxury brand? I'm talking about cars in the same class dumbo. Compared to the luxury cars from Europe and Asia, luxury cars from the US never really came close in quality. If you think it did, you're just a patriotic person defending your country's pride. I'm saying the CTS has stepped up so it can compete with European rivals. Why? Don't you agree?

[wildbloodydragon]

No, I don't agree this is the 'only' American car with 'quality'.

If by quality you mean durability, lot of American cars have that. Need I mention the trucks?

If by quality you mean interior, again, this isn't the 'only' American luxury car that has good interior. Every American luxury car has this tangible interior quality. At least the ones from the major brands, Cadillac and Lincoln.

GM kept way more promises than Obama did. Patriotic or not, I wouldn't disregard their effort like that.

[ratonL]

Why does this have to also become a political issue?...Plus, he was given a torn-up country to start with; very hard to work on....

[312868541]

@wildbloodydragon mofo had to bring politics into this. i guess if Gm wasn't given the money, then obama would have a "broken promise. " By the way are these suckers paying back the American public.(including your own taxes, if you do pay taxes!)

[wildbloodydragon]

I wasn't trying to bring politics to it. I'm trying to say GM got the shit he promised done.

Obama never intended to break any promises, there's just a lot he can't do much about.

[ratonL]

Is Buick really a "normal" car. I thought it was a luxury brand.
