CVT FWD		I'm an early adopter of the technology and I realized the additional cost of that role when I bought the car. But it's still an expensive ride & many can't/won't pay this price.

2012 4dr Hatch 149-horsepower Electric + Gas
CVT FWD		 GM over-developed this car, and it shows. In a way they had to, but that is no complaint from me. Everything is put together well with quality components from the interior to the engine bay. I would only bemoan the "black and decker" battery charging cord

What Our Members Are Saying about Cadillac CTS Materials and Workmanship

Available Features of the Cadillac CTS: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2009 4dr Sedan 304-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 Top notch, as good as anything on the road.
2008 4dr Sedan 304-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 This one was put together perfect right out of the factory
2008 4dr Sedan 304-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Seems to be the best workmanship I have seen out of Cadillac
2008 4dr Sedan 304-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 It is very nice, with leather trimmed dash, and soft materials. The chairs have a solid feeling to them. It is a first class appointed interior.
2008 4dr Sedan 304-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Not plasticky, impression of high-quality.
2008 4dr Sedan 304-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 quality ,fit and finish are impeccable, the dash ,and the "baseball" stitching ,are top notch, the interior looks hand crafted, no cheap plastic feel in this product. door gaps and alignment are tight, as is the hood and the trunk, this machine works !
2005 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.6L V6
5-speed automatic RWD		 quality material
Materials and Workmanship of the Cadillac CTS: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr Sedan 270-horsepower 3.0L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 eventhough the pleather is very nice, its a caddy and should be standard leather. the passengers seats should have electronic adjustments as a standard and not options. Also the 3.0 should have dual exhaust.
2006 4dr Sedan 255-horsepower 3.6L V6
5-speed shiftable automatic RWD		 Car was never hit, but trunk was crooked-body shop adjusted but further adjustment would not allow lid to latch. Cheap quality inside and out. Car has weird rocker panels and looks unfinished looking at the side from a distance.
