Never heard of Caddy's V6 being described as "horrible sounding" till now. Also, the Caddy's more of a sports sedan than the Benz. It punches above its weight price and performance wise. It would be more interesting seeing this one against the 7 series since it's much closer in price 80k starting. Put the base 7'er against the top Caddy, as their prices match. I bet the Caddy will do well performance wise but don't know much about the 7'er's features/interior.

V8 sounds amazing and if you want to modify it is much more headroom for how high you can go compared to a v6, and if they were to put something like a ls3 in it (which isnt going to happen) It would be incredibly reliable, but the LT1 will prob go in it and you will get similar gas mileage and 50 more hp than the ttv6

***** You will always get more for your money byuing a used car. And as far as custumer service goes, i know nothing about that but isnt your evidence a bit anecdotal? The point is this is not a car for a peasent. The S class is like expensive wine. Good value ? probobly not. But to have that same experience, you have to pay alot. (that is why this is unfair))

What your doing is comparing a mustang to a lambo, yeah their both built for speed but their price point is very different. Should the mustang be "half the price" just because a lambo is faster?

This is the first gen of the CT6. I'd give it some slack since nothing is perfect on the first try. If I was to review this car I'd say that it's a step towards the right direction. Cadillac has shown they can kick ass, so I wouldn't doubt them.

@evanganske9240

You cannot beat the design of the CT6. Seeing it in person, it has one of the highest levels of road presence compared to any other car. Cadillac's designers have somehow managed to keep the sharp, creased lines of A&S design, while smoothening them out at the same time. The low and long hood with vertical lights is very imposing. The 3.0TT engine sounds amazing, but really is only tuned for peak performance at mid to high rpm, which is the exact opposite of typical turbocharged engines. I say Cadillac retunes the 3.0TT to make a little more power beginning at lower rpm. I also think the CT6 should get the 10 speed automatic from the Camaro ZL1. From what I have heard, the CT6's lightweight Omega platform makes for a very tossable driving experience. The upcoming 4.2TT DOHC V8 will for sure make the CT6 an even better performer. More aggressive brakes, 4 wheel steering system, and suspension should come standard with 4.2TT models. If anyone knows how the testing of Dynamic Skip Fire is coming along, I would love to hear! DSF takes active fuel management / cylinder bank shut-off to a new level where an on-board computer analyzes the necessary power needed to keep the car cruising down the highway or getting up to speed. Based on this data, it will skip individual cylinders from firing, which will reduce fuel usage by 15-20%. Cadillac could have a real tech marvel on their hands if they start being bold and leading their own path, instead of copying the Germans.

exe. Black I remember when owning a Benz was a big deal. because they were. They used to build on them on bodies that could go through brick walls and still keep running. And the cars were actually put together in germany by hand for the most part. And Benz used to pride it self on being the leader in technology and gadgets. Time's have changed and the quality that Merc was known for isn't there anymore. The market speaks for it self. They're still great vehicles, but not cars you want to own for long term without warranties. There a nightmare to repair and maintain.

cheekz I did. I honestly don't think cars on todays market that are being branded as luxary, sedans from any automakers are worth the 6 figures they're asking. Every car maker now is making vehicles that offer the same. Merc aren't unique as they used to be. Hell Hyunda now is closing the gap, which I never thought in a Million years that we'd see a Hyunda be worth more than 65K. They're offering powerful enegines, with all the creature comforts and luxary packages that every single german automaker offers.

Pitting cars against each other simply because they represent the 'top of the line' of their respective manufacturers is pointless. Honda's top sports coupe is Accord EX . . does that mean it would go up against an Aston Martin Vanquish? Stupid. When evaluating cars, they should face their direct competition, which is largely determined by pricing and marketplace perception. In this case, the Mercedes Benz E Class is the CT6's opposition, not the S.
