I am hunting for something newer (has to be sold at 5yrs) for a company car to replace the 06 CTS V I've been playing with. The 18-19 ATS V seem to have great performance in a smaller performance oriented package. I'm looking for lots of fun in a car that can still masquerade as a company car and Dad mobile... Pic below is just an example...
IDK much about them, but there's one in my parking lot at work with a manual transmission. Looks nice and I was surprised that it's a pretty small car dimensionally. Or a least smaller than I'd expect a Cadillac to be. And that's a good thing in my book.
Built in the same chassis as the 6th gen Camaro, and handles every bit as good as the SS 1LE. I’ve driven several at both CotA and Daytona in the Cadillac V-lab program they used to have. At Daytona, they had Christian Fittipaldi and Joao Barbosa drive a CTS-V and an ATS-V around the road course, and they were within a tenth of each other, but made their time in much different ways. The ATS is definitely a scalpel compared to the CTS sledgehammer
I owned a '14 ATS for a year. Good overall car, but check out the rear seat room before you buy. Good for younger kids, can be tight for teenagers (especially three across).
Appreciate the commentary folks. Back seat room is always a dice roll as I'm 6' 4". Thankfully kiddos are on the young side and not an everyday thing. I need to go drive one shortly but at 4400 produced they are actually on the rare side. I know it's bad but that makes them even more interesting to me...
