Whether you're looking for a premium American car that stands out in the crowd or a luxurious ultra-high-performance vehicle, the CTS series will deliver.
If nothing but a prestigious import luxury brand will do it for you, there are many fine alternatives from BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Lexus, Acura and Infiniti.
Through twisty two-lanes, fast freeways, urban congestion and mixed-speed suburban sprawl, we greatly appreciate the 2013 Cadillac CTS' responsive steering, world-class roadholding and powerful brakes. Given its performance-focused engineering, one might expect a correspondingly firm ride, but we find the suspension surprisingly supple even on badly deteriorated pavement. We love the quiet cabin's luxurious design, and the multi-adjustable seats are uncommonly comfortable for long hauls. For a serious performance car – the CTS-V S

"A very smooth driving sedan but yet very sporty and the looks are next to non, I bought this car after I sold my 92K Mercedes sl500. The CTS has a lot of get up and go and the transmission is a lot of fun, drive mode into sport mode into shift able mode. If you come from a sports car be careful when turning swiftly as it handles nice it's not a true sports car, it's a family sedan. It sounds very nice while in sport mode and has a lot of get up and go which is nice. Fits 4 people with no problems even with the front seats all the way back. Drives very smooth and has lots of air bags for the family. The exterior is very nice looking from 2008 to the present. The lights are very bright which is great at night. Just a great all around sedan that doesn't look like grand pa's car."

"The CTS is simply a great luxury car and when you compare it to the BMW 3, Audi A4 or Mercedes C class, I can honestly say the CTS takes them hands down. I've had my car for two years and have never had an issue and love driving this machine. Its quick and nimble and best of all, the interior is done right. Not too flashy or too gimmicky like a lot of GM models. For the money, I'm not sure what else you can get that can compete."
