    • 2014 Cadillac XTS4 V-S...
    During this presentation, we will take a 1st person look at what the vehicle is all about beginning with the start up, performance data, fuel economy, the occasional track data, and build quality. Also, I will teach you how to use most of the interior and exterior features in a detailed fashion, that before, you could only get from going to a dealership yourself! Throughout the video, I will highlight key styling and unique differences about the vehicle, any available options, and of course it would not be an enthusiast car video without the good ole engine portion with rev and exhaust note with interior and exterior perspectives. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
    FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE CHANNEL SEE BELOW: In this channel you will find in depth educational videos of automobiles from all over the world, presented in a more detailed fashion than ever before. Basically, this gives the viewer the chance to view the most detailed 1st person look you can get without going to an actual dealer yourself! Every video is consistent in the way I present so viewers know what to expect in my presentations. I treat every vehicle with the same respect whether a 1960 Chevrolet Impala SS or the 2012 Lamborghini Aventador. I film all types of vehicles from past, present, and future while broadening the knowledge of the automotive enthusiast. You will see everything from vintage, brand new, exotic, mainstream, old, etc. I am very proud of this channel and have built it up from amateur videos years ago to what you see today. I wanted to share my love for the automotive world with the rest of the world. Be sure to explore the massive video variety, have fun and enjoy The Driver's Seat of RUclips!

    As an avid BMW fan, it hurts to say this, but the CTS is more luxurious inside than a 5 series. Even though the 5 series is a bit outdated by now, I have to give it to Cadillac, they've done a great job. Can't wait for the CTS-V.

  • @Drzking9229
    @Drzking9229 10 лет назад +7

    I've had this car for 3 months and I love it, I'm not gonna say it's better than its European competitors because everyone has their own opinion. People always compliment it everywhere I go I'm glad with my choice. Can't wait to see what the V is gonna look like!!!

    • @GreatToastMigration
      @GreatToastMigration 10 лет назад +1

      Cadillac has really stepped up their game, especially with this car. It is definitely in the same league as the big three German luxury competitors. I'm glad you like your car, I don't see too many on the road.

    • @Drzking9229
      @Drzking9229 10 лет назад +1

      GreatToastMigration yea they're definitely catching up a lot of people say the euros have an edge with their interior because of the lag problems with cue but I haven't had problems at all it seems fine to me. And the only ones I've seen in the streets have been two 2.0 turbo models not v sports which is a reason why I like it so much cause its something different.

  • @BuddyLe38386
    @BuddyLe38386 10 лет назад +59

    Amazing car although I think they could have done something a little more aggressive with the exhaust note.

    • @Drzking9229
      @Drzking9229 10 лет назад +7

      Yea that's my only complain with Cadillac. I know luxury cars should be comfortable smooth and quiet but when it comes to the performance trims they should have some growl in em. The CTS-V has a whopping 556hp and it sounds like a basic v6 smh

    • @BuddyLe38386
      @BuddyLe38386 10 лет назад +6

      Yeah you have to dump a grand or so into an exhaust to make it sound decent. I think if it were any other auto manufacturer, it would have been more aggressive sounding. Although Cadillac puts down some serious power these days, I think they are going for the whole "sleeper" thing. I get the idea of making a fast car that's quiet, but this is what pushes me away from this car. The last thing I want to do with a 64,000 sports sedan is spend more money on an exhaust. For this price I could get a BMW M3 sedan.

    • @kirbyswarp
      @kirbyswarp 10 лет назад +10

      Yamil This isn't the V. the V is yet to come.

    • @kirbyswarp
      @kirbyswarp 10 лет назад +5

      Also it sounds about the same as a BMW or Mercedes 6 Cylinder, so I can see where you're coming from.

    • @daaper
      @daaper 10 лет назад +2

      Yamil Not sure what you're talking about. The only times I've ever heard the CTS-V it sounds like a big, beefy supercharged V8. It's based on the Corvette ZR1's monster: the LS9.
      This V-Sport sounds like a V6, but it is a V6. I wish you could hear the turbo a little more in the exhaust note, but it will never sound like its big brother's V8.

    @rantanamo 10 лет назад +1

    Seriously, this car in this color is like the best looking non-exotic on the road. Everytime I see one, its surprises me how much more shapely and aggressive the shape looks in person, while it looks more dull in pictures. I always think the tires look small in videos, but they look great in person. The angle of the side crease is perfection. Damn great looking car.

  • @Tednessful
    @Tednessful 10 лет назад +6

    Quite impressive, to be honest. This particular version could put the Lexus GS and 5-Series to shame, with unusual attention to detail and finish on a Cadillac. Being very picky, it would be flawless with higher profile tires (these days 35 on 18" rims is too low) and a less roundish panoramic roof. Nice review ;)

    *BMW runs engine sound through speakers
    "So they want to think they can isolate the car so well ? That isn't a real feel anymore , those Germans try to put as much useless technology as they can into their cars.
    *Cadillac runs engine sound through speakers
    "Really ? The sound comes from the speakers ? This is so cool OMGGG"

    I'm not a fan Cadillac, but these cars are beautiful both inside & out. They've aged extremely well despite this gen first came out a decade ago. Better looking than the current CT5 IMO, especially the interior.

  • @Ptitgars66
    @Ptitgars66 10 лет назад +1

    I always smile when you say that BMW 5 series and Mercedes E class are mid-size sedan because here in France these two cars are pretty big, especially the E class in the Parisian traffic !
    Anyway, this new CTS-V is absolutely gorgeous.
    In some ways, it's such a shame to me that V8 is disappearing ... The end of an era in American motoring in one hand but on the other, it's quite a good thing too. Here in France, most American cars are seen as gas guzzler equipped with big V8 sucking gas like no other cars in the world.

    That CTS VSport exhaust sounds amazing. I like the new Cadillac keyfob. Out of all the reviews I have seen about the VSport, I knew Kyle would make the best one.
    Can't wait for 2015 Cadillac Escalade. Could you do a comparison between the old Escalade vs New Escalade?
    Great Job Buddy!

    • @sheilalashay5927
      @sheilalashay5927 10 лет назад +1

      The 2015 Cadillac Escalades are now in showrooms for sale They start $71k and max out at $92k. Even after incentives, you're talking big bucks. lol

    • @LeshVarg
      @LeshVarg 10 лет назад +1

      Sheila LaShay lol i know. They are coming out with a Platinum around the fall of 2015 which will be estimated to $100k+ after taxes. They are also including a surround camera system, and 8 speed transmission (same one found in the new C7 Z06 but modified), cell phone charger for iPhones and other smartphones, and 4g hotspot. Also a new twin-turbo v6 Escalade is in the pipe line. :)
      We are talking about it in the cadillacforums. There is even actual cadillac customercare reps in there as well if you have issue with your cadillac.

    • @sheilalashay5927
      @sheilalashay5927 10 лет назад +1

      Nihsel101 I forgot about the Cadillacforum, and I have a password. Gonna try to get in. The 15 Lade is fab; I call it jewelry. LOL. When I take my car in for maintenance I will check it out in the showroom. Last winter Cadillac sent me free tickets to the Auto show, but we had a bad snow storm. I was looking forward to seeing the Lade then but driving was impossible. I can't do the 80s, 90s and 100k, but I can look. In a previous year I did see a big young man with a Platinum edition at the showroom. I think he was a pro Hockey player. One of the sports. (BTW - That's the type of money you need) LOL.

    • @LeshVarg
      @LeshVarg 10 лет назад +1

      Sheila LaShay My fam is looking into trading it. We just did a kbb trade-in value, one of our 2011 ESV premium can be sold for 46-54k. So if we include that to the trade in and we have a GM card to help low the price and got a $3000 discount because we got a MB, we are paying like 39k-50k. Plus we are waiting for the 0% apr, which will most likely not happen because they all keep disappearing. lol
      I got a 2013 platinum ESV, got it for 46k. We had a gray lux ESV and we traded it for 43k plus the MB discount and GM card last year.

    I can't believe that genuine leather isn't standard in this Caddy. He said it has leatherette and real leather was optional, this one did have real leather. Initially I thought he might have been speaking of the armrest material, but then he did say it was the seating surfaces that had standard leatherette.

    They need to take this engine and put it in the ATS V, that would pretty much be a perfect car.

      I'd rather see them put the 6.2L LT1 V8 in the ATS-V.

      That's exactly what GM is doing! Expect somewhere around 470HP and 490-495LB-FT in the ATS-V.

    Great video!
    This car is nice, but it can't compare to the engine or styling of the first gen CTS-V. At least not in my opinion.
