    Side note: The video of me driving is shakey because of the camera's lack of stabilization, construction, and our TERRIBLE roads in NW Houston. However, this is not at all a representation of the ride of the car. Trust me... it's a SUPER SMOOTH RIDE!

    Great video friend, my story is almost identical to yours.Have an SRX loved it, went into a Cadillac dealer not knowing which car to purchase CTS or CT6, loved them both.I finally decided on a premium CTS V-sport because the CT6 was a little too big. I love my 2016 CTS and will keep it as long as its drivable. All materials inside are real, chrome, leather, wood and carbon fiber. Cadillac is making the sexiest cars on the road today.Well done Cadillac!!!!!

    Great job on your video, man. I love these cars. I own a veryt low milage 2006 CTS Sport Luxury model and it still looks like new with it's Ultra Red paint. It has 18", 10 spoke alloy wheels. It drives beautifully and has, basically, no body roll. Great facotry stereo, although I have upgraded the four old door speakers. The 10" woofer is original a has no distortion. Everywhere I go people comment on the car and the color. When I tell them it's 11 years old they are shocked. The 2017 would be my only choice for a replacement vehicle.

    • @speedcanada1
      @speedcanada1 Год назад

      XTS and CTS are very different cars for very different buyers. XTS is a front-heavy, front-drive based car with a focus on space and comfort. The CTS is a rear-drive based car with fantastic dynamics, but the trade off is a firmer ride and less interior space. IMHO the biggest limiting factor in the back seat isn't headroom, hip room, or even leg room - it's foot room. The footwell is quite tight, and (unless you jack your front seats up high) there is no room to get big feet under the seats. I'm 5'10" and I sit with knees and elbows lightly bent (more relaxed than an "upright and tight" racing position, but nowhere close to a "gangster lean"), and feet bigger than a size 7-8 are tight in the back.

    • @NewStuffTV1
      @NewStuffTV1  6 лет назад +1

      That's why I agree with your 1st comment. I think they probably do it for weight distribution as well since the battery is in the trunk. They figure people who buy these cars will also purchase the OnStar packages and wait for someone to come to the rescue instead of getting dirty and fixing it themselves in 15 mins vs waiting an hour for a wrecker to show up.
