Because why not? Before the CT6 was a thing Cadillac needed sometime to test out that TTV6 in.

This is probably the best overall Cadillac for sale, and is a hit on the used market.

I had a Non v-sport ‘13 XTS for a very short period of time. It was incredibly mediocre to drive but stupid comfy and well enough put together, and even the non v-sport would boogie when you got on it.

I give it a 5.5/10: the perfect rental car.

No, but he’ll give you a full explanation as to why it exists.

(I’d take a Continental over it any day of the week)

If you really want to stay up all night, consider this Ferrari with a Fiero V6 swapped into it:

Should someone tell him actual V models exist?

Does he think the M240i is an actual M?

Pretty much exactly what I thought this would be atleast in the normal non Vsport trim.

The reason the XTS exists is fleets, as for the V-Sport version of it, um, wait, I thought I had something.

Maybe Mary Barra wanted one for her company car?

Doesn’t the platform date back to the Saab 95?

A car platform older than the infamous Chysler 300/Dodge Charger-challenger platform?

You misunderstand my words.

The XTS V-Sport is designed to soak up Highway miles at high speed. It’s comfortable and practical. The Vs are great but they’re harsh track focused machines.

No, it’s a platform built withi the late 2000s for GM large cars. The last 9-5 was one of the first cars to ride on it, but truthfully it debuted with the last LaCrosse.

I admit that I haven’t driven the XTSV, but I’ve driven practically every other Cadillac car and I absolutely hated the XTS. The CT6 would be a better choice, as would the CTS V sport, or a V6 CTS.
