Do you guys have a lot of problems with your cars that you "hang" at the dealerships regularly? The vehicle is all that matters to me at the end of the day. I could care less if they have a nice showroom, give me coffee or a reach around. Haha Edit: I saw my 1st new "BMW" 4 series in my area today. What a joke that thing is. We were laughing that someone actually paid good money to purchase/lease that monstrosity |

I don't care about the dealership experience much either but what that guy had to go through with GM and the dealership on his Vette was unacceptable. Read his post that I linked earlier.

Cadillac needs to hurry up and unveil the new Blackwings already! Hoping they will offer what I'm looking for.
Supercharged V8/Twin-Turbo V6, Manual, Magnesium Wheels, Carbon Fiber Buckets, it keeps getting better and better with every spy shot, now if they could reveal the damn car any time soon! Hear Cadillac's Blackwing-Powered Super Sedans Scream During Testing Someone even got a nice exhaust clip (in which you can hear a manual shift) in the third photo from instagram.

I would stay oddly skeptical when it comes to American brands still. I don't mind checking it out even if I find myself in a GT4 sooner or later.

If the previous CTS-V and ATS-V are anything to go by, the chassis will be excellent. The biggest issue with those cars was the interior and tech, which are getting major upgrades for this generation.

Worth a look. Before getting back with BMW, I was seriously looking at the ATS-V. I would recommend getting them (Cadillacs) gently used, especially here in N. California. They take a massive hit on the used market because there isn't a lot of demand (I think) here where I live.
There was an ATS-V that popped up on the used market in my area with just 5k mi when I was looking. It had all the goodies and it was a current year car. Mind you, the car was less than 1 year old and the hit was $20-25K!. That gave me pause; I understand depreciation mechanics but this was pretty breathtaking. The ATS-V is a seriously capable machine though. Even to this day, I think its on par with the M3s. |

Co worker got rear ended in her f30, she had it for all of three weeks. For a rental, she got a cts with 32 miles on it. She was so excited about the rental, and proud to show me (as the resident “car guy”)
She went to open the drivers door and the handle fell off. Keep the Cadillac, I’d rather not. GM quality continues regardless of model, trim or specialty. Hardest of passes. |

Every time they launch something e.g. the new ILX, I shake my head and wonder 'why bother'? I think GM upper management have the right vision, but their execution and dealerships will continue to drag on the brand. It's the same with Fords; yeah that GT350/500 is awesome, but the after sales support is a hard pass. |

I doubt this can be functionally possible. Not enough openings for cooling flow around the front bumper structure. Good for a concept only...
