Love my car! Used to have an El Dorado, but this car is a great upgrade.
The heated lumbar seats are great, and the performance is everything I would expect from a Cadillac, despite the v6 engine! Problems have been minimal.

It is reliable, and a beautiful, smooth ride.
It is beautiful and reliable. The ride is smooth and quite. You can tell its built well buy the sound of the door closing. It closes with a "thunk" as opposed to a "tink. ".

Cadillac cts-v: the family race car.
No problems so far. It is a wonderful performance vehicle and really is a fun family car. Extremely reliable just like most ls cars. Very luxurious and comfortable to drive. It is the perfect. Combination of luxury and fun. It does not feel like a race car until you want it to and then boy does it deliver.

2009 Cadillac CTS-V has unparalleled all-around performance!
The car is amazing! Neck-wrenching acceleration, excellent handling, agreeable ride, distinctive looks, reasonably priced. First-rate interior and -- perhaps most importantly -- achieves record-breaking four-door speed. The 556-horsepower, supercharged 6.2-liter V8 (which is essentially a slightly detuned version of the same motor found in the Corvette ZR-1) helps the new V put down some ridiculous straight-line times: zero to 60 mph in 4.3 seconds and the quarter-mile in 12.4 seconds at nearly 115 mph. Moreover, the CTS-V is equally impressive when the going gets twisty.

POWER!
I Bought My Blue Diamond V Sight unseen. Yes..... That is crazy.... And I Quite agree. However the car is ALL I had ever dreamed of, and MORE. Stunning Stealthy appearance, Beasty BEAST. Yes... The check engine lights can be a PIA but the POWER is like a 747. Leaving folks to look a my Gorgeous tail lights in utter disgust! Might makes Right! This car is Stupid fast! Did I mention the POWER???? Off The Hook! Paintxpert Shine Since 1969!

Sleek, modern, and high performance Cadillac cts-v.
First of all, it looks beautiful. Sleek, modern design. Pearl, diamond white with chrome features. Tinted windows. Brown, leather interior. Runs like a dream and has never left me stranded. Quiet driving. The speakers and musical audio is excellent. Heated seats. Window and mirror defrost feature. Aux compatible. Digital speedometer.

Great car for long road trips.
This car had lasted us 60, 000 + miles in the last 3 years with very few problems. The interior is incredibly spacious and provides a large trunk for storage, plenty of legroom, and a great sound system. The functionality of the car is great and there have been no severe issues. A little inconvenient to replace headlights, but the first ones lasted 6 years.
