Well, my ATS is at the dealer because the dash now squeaks like a chew toy following my last service for a CUE screen replacement. Luckily, they gave me a CT6 as a loaner.

I’ll do a more complete review after driving it more but here are my initial impressions:

1) Interior - Lovely. I haven’t been in a new 5 Series or E-class but the CT6 is really a nice place to be. Also, best sound system I’ve ever had the honor of hearing.

2) How does it drive? Also lovely. I wouldn’t take it auto crossing like my ATS but it’s supremely confident and planted yet comfortable. The steering is nicely weighted and communicative enough for this car.

3) How is CUE? Much improved. I’m not crazy about the track pad in the center console but its certainly an improvement over my ATS’ CUE system.

BmanUltima's car still hasn't been fixed yet, he'll get on it tomorrow, honest. > SkyNet 08/23/2016 at 11:42

How fast does it go in reverse?

4) Looks glorious.

Yes. Totally subjective so I didn’t put it in, but a really handsome and well proportioned car.

Do an Oppo review!

Ha! Thought for a second this was a satire post about autonomous cars. Then, I saw that SkyNet is your handle.

Anyway, I’d be interested in seeing your Oppo review. I think these cars are beautiful and fascinating.

Does it have that fancy new rear view mirror camera screen? Curious how that actually works. I’m pretty impressed with the interiors of the two new Cadillacs.

Unfortunately it doesn’t. Also it’s the 3.6, not the 3.0TT.

Car looks great and I’ve already seen 2 on the road in traffic. But does it come in any color besides black? That's all I've seen it in!

Both the ones I saw were 3.0TT maybe they are saving the 3.6 for loaner cars?

The side profile on this car is in my opinion the most attractive angle.

I always maintain that an important question to ask when you’re in an Cadillac is, is the car fit for Al Capone to be chauffeured in the back seat?

“Mine” is sort of a black metallic. But as far as I can tell, no, they only come in black or black metallic.

Agreed. It looks pretty good from the front too, but the rear needs some work.

Possibly. Frankly, the 3.6 is pretty good in this car. I haven’t found myself “wanting” for power. It’s no race car though.

I haven’t checked the back seat yet. I’ll sit in it tonight.

It’s certainly nice enough. It even has a power rear sun shade.

The trunk is probably only big enough for one to one and a half bodies. I think they cut space from the trunk to make space in the interior because it’s not much larger than my ATS’ trunk.
