2008 Cadillac CTS 4 review from North America
"Cadillac? Oh, please!"

Nothing has gone wrong with the car.
General comments?
This car was an inheritance. If I didn't inherit it, I would have never bought one. I was never a Cadillac fan.
The car is not particularly fast and handling is not that impressive. My last car is about as fun to drive. I never thought of driving to be fun. I never pimped any cars, and they never appealed to me. I see a car as an appliance like a toaster or a washing machine.
The comfort is about average. The seats are sculpted properly, but they remain rock hard after eight months of ownership between my parents and me. Visibility in all directions is good from the driver seat, and there is sufficient space inside for passengers. I think five people would be a stretch, though, as hip room and leg room are snug.
The car is downright ugly. The profile looks blah, and the front looks goofy with the grille.
I have not gone to the dealer for anything yet.
