As much as I despise everything General Motors, and the old guard Cadillac mentality (not too old guard as ancient Cadillac made electric start standard first). HELL, Cadillac was the first to offer a proper steering wheel, instead of the tiller control issued by all other manufacturers (almighty Karl Benz included). do suck on that loli.
Modern Cadillacs at least _look pretty badass. Pure direct and honest driving dynamics are still absent. Sure the CTS-V comes with a Corvette motor in, but that doesn’t even come close to forgiving the ropey shifter action and the fact that moderate bumps confuse the living shit out of the front suspension for what seems like hours
Modern Cadillacs are doing a far better job of attracting new buyers than other dying GM divisions and the once phenomenal, now pathetic Lincoln division of
Ford.
Cadillac is is potentially a great American manufacturer almost, but not quite, yet they are years ahead of their American competition.
Buy Acura/Honda’s RL-X instead. I stake my net worth on your being more pleased.
Acura’s automatic climate control system is connected to the GPS and clock. As a result it is able to determine the car’s more sunlit side. The AC system automatically sends a touch more aircon to the side facing the sun.
The wood trim is the RL-X is genuine wood, built up through a costly process by Tendo of Japan, a well established bentwood furniture maker of many decades. The detail intensive process includes bonding the glossy wood to an aluminum subframe for durability and the reduced risk of splintering in a severe crash.
General Motors designers have not even had dreams about ideas like this.
