    I own one brother you won’t be disappointed. I do recommend not going past 3,500 miles without a oil change, timing chain will thank you.

    great choice, i have a 2011 with the premium package. just keep up with the maintenance and you'll be good. it's a looker, you'll get a lot of looks and comments no matter where you go, and unlike the g37 or other competitors, you can jam out to ALL the songs about cadillacs while cruising in your own.
    also, just take all the plastic covers off the engine, you don't need them and the engine likes to overheat when it's over 95 degrees outside so you're better off without them, like you said it looks good without them anyway.

    2013 CTS4 AWD coupe here. I absolutely love it! My only issue are the wheels. I feel like the originals are boring for the coupe. They are wider/staggered in the rear, unlike the sedan but look the same. I'm currently looking for a new set of staggered 19" wheels.

Coupe is one of my favorites love the look it looks tough.

    I have had mine since brand new. My favorite car so far. Got it with 4 and currently I'm sitting at 180,000+ miles and still going strong :-) It has been my daily for that whole time. Not so much recently since I have lowered mine and now I sit about 4 inches off the ground. But still great car and surely does turn heads.

      I got asked the other day how it drives 🤣. This one needs some love on the paint. I'll be taking care of that later on. However, it's been great so far and the MPGs aren't bad at all. It's been 2 weeks without filling the gas 😬
