You can criticize the recaro seats, the infotainment system, the Government motors buttons all you want. The shiteating grin on your face betrays how you really feel about that car. By the way - those seats are meant to hold your ass in, because of the power that caused your shiteating grin in the first place.
All this bickering between American and German cars is getting old. When will people be able to see past the manufacture's badge and respect a nice car when they see one?
The secret is ......we do, but we're still gonna shit on each other lol. It's like sports, at the end of the day it's all fun and games but we're still gonna be competitive about it.
Any European car will cost a little more in maintenance, but performance lines (M, AMG, RS) will be especially. Friend's 2015 m3 oil change was $225 and brakes were quoted around $1200
This is the first time a tester did not recommend the recaro seats. All other testers that I am aware of says "make sure you get them" they are worth the extra 3 grand.
I was going to post the same thing. I've never heard anyone complain about the Recaro seats unless they were a very large person. I love the Recaros so much that I wasn't going to buy a Vagon without them.
Re: the Recaro seats, they can take a bit of time to adjust correctly, because they're 14-way adjustable. Mine has the same seats, and trust me - when you get them dialed in, they are excellent. It took me 2-3 weeks to get them set up the right way but now they're extremely comfortable. I've taken many 600+ mile trips in them now and haven't had any issues.
The automatic is actually very crisp. I just bought a 2014 with the automatice, and I have driven stick for years, and I was very pleasantly surprised. Plus, the manual is pretty rare in 2nd generations.
Way more exciting than the Corvette. The supercharger really adds to the experience. This felt way better in the corners than the corvette did too in my opinion.
It's cool to see how much you enjoy testing the car, especially the WOT runs. I own a bolton c6 vette that runs 11.90's but am thinking of getting a V for it's everyday practicality and performance. The 12mpg is of no concern to me since I work from home. Upper and lower pulley,air raid, tune, exhaust, drag radials and the car should be a beast.
The CTS-V is faster than the base or gran sport C6 stock to stock anyway. People have gotten 11.9s completely stock in CTS-Vs. They feel pretty different though, the C6 is 1000 lbs lighter and has more instantaneous throttle response, while the CTS-V is more like a bullet train. Both great cars for different reasons. The CTS-V is the closest you'll ever get to a 4 door Corvette, for sure.
I ordered a 2012 CTS-V wagon from the factory (measly 556 HP). I first checked out both the optional Recaro seats (which were a pricey option) found in your car and the standard seats. To my pocketbook's delight, I (at 6'3", 205 lb.) liked the standard seats better, having much the same reaction to the Recaro's you did. Only significant option I'd strongly recommend is the super-large moon roof; I enjoy it thoroughly. I also agree with you about the radio/nav controls and the tranny. But overall it's a fantastic car -- the best I've ever driven.
Your reviews are honestly just so honest and just perfect but the one thing I personally would really love to see are a couple of revs from both interior and exterior :)
595 stock, is what the Manufacture says.. It's powerful for sure..or better engine!! But BMW has better interior and overall quality. . Overall I'd say the Caddy because it sticks out more, in my opinion..
Agree completely. A coworker had an M3 (coupe though) that I was in love with before driving (and buying) my V. M3 seemed a lot more of a finesse car, one that won't be "fast" without a driver who knows what they are doing. The V is more of an every man's "fast" car. I'm not a bad driver, but the V makes me feel like a damn superstar behind the wheel.
I like this guy lol! I like how excited he gets when he smashes on the gas. That's definitely a real reaction, that's not biased in any way! Great review man!!
+Abdul Mamah That's because he's only 14 and in most states has to wait another two years to get his license, but somehow tricked someone into loaning him the car for a "youtube review"!!
i dunno, making this thing fast is expensive. a decent air filter alone is over 400 bucks the intake has too many sensors so making your own may be difficult. exahust is over a grand.
If u compare the parts for more go fast, to the V's competition (m, amg, rs etc). Bc yes it's hast a luxurious but still just an LS3 with the LSA Blower and that blower is a tank and can take upWARDS OF 800hp
I have a 2009 Pontiac G8 at the moment and a CTS-V i think will be my next purchase. I like your reviews because you show actual enjoyment when you drive the cars! The smile on your face in this car says it all! I wonder how you would have liked the stock seats over the Racaros? Keep at it!
You what would make your reviews killer, is a camera slider, You can buy for as low as $100. Awesome opportunity to review this car, your are fortunate!
I realize I am so late to this video but I have to comment. I have a 2011 CTS-V with an Airaid intake and Corsa exhaust, so you are basically testing my car! I really don't think the intake and exhaust can bring the HP from 556 to 595. If the owner dynowed the care and got those results I think there must be some other mods going on. Nonetheless they are fabulous cars to drive. Thanks Matt!
These CTS V are beautiful. I've driven my cousins 2012 and I like it waaaay better than the S4. I was actually looking into Lexus, but after driving this...I think I've changed my mind.
Oops didn't mean to do that... What I was trying to say was when you put the power down it made me smile too. I could only imagine what that kind of power feels like! Love the reviews Matt!
The V all day! The seats in this video are actually the upgraded options geared towards those that want to track the car. The stock seats are actually more comfortable to most people.
If you want to mod your car (motor), there is no question as to which one is the 'better' vehicle. I'm at ~770hp with about $4k in parts...hard to match that with any other car in this class. I agree with the dual clutch points, but the 'old' torque converter transmission in the V is amazingly stout. People are running 9's on the stock, unbuilt, 6l90e. They're getting better, but dual clutch transmissions haven't had a great track record for strength. The m5 is a closer competitor, imo.
I'd definitely have the CTS-V over the M3 as well... I really love the Beemer, but this... THIS.... it's pretty hard to beat. Specially considering the only down side for me could be the transmission, not the seats. As always, great review, Matt, made me laugh a lot on the acceleration passes. Have a great one, Arthur.
Looks like a great job! Traveling around and test driving great cars! I've always wanted the CTS-V, from the first time I saw the body style I knew I had to have one. Then I find out just exactly how much hp these cars have. Mind blowing! I'm going today to look at one. Thanks for the videos and keep up the great work. Of the two cars, it would have to be Cadillac all the way! BMW's and Mercedes-Benz's feel like lady cars to me.
I own a V wagon and have driven my brother's 2010 M3 coupe on multiple occasions. Both have their pluses and minuses. I'll sum it up: V Wagon 1) WAGON 2) More power and significantly faster 3) Better brakes 4) More rare and unique 5) Magnetic suspension is more adaptive and makes for a better ride overall 6) Cheaper to repair (minus replacing the PS2 tires if you must have another set) 7) Better transmission if you prefer Manual M3 1) Better fit and finish 2) Better tech interface 3) Lighter & feels more agile (Considering how hefty the wagon is) 4) Hydrolic steering is awesome 5) Better gas mileage 6) Better Transmission if you prefer Auto (DC)
Yeah. My V is a manual wagon too, and M3 drivers just think they are the fastest things on the road. They can't understand why they get smoked so badly every time they try me. And it's not that I don't like M3s, I do like M3s. I don't like most M3 drivers though, because they tend to be pricks. M3s cost about the same as CTS-Vs, and I think you do get significantly more car for your money with the CTS-V.
Vernon Price that's what happens with some of the more popular luxury car brands. BMW just happens to be the most popular so it attracts the most douches.
After one year, mine has not needed any repairs. Skip the Recaros, they're brick hard. Skip the automatic, the 6 speed is much more fun. Flip the switch, and the suspension goes from highway soft to well damped and tightened up. I've driven the M3, the CTS-V is much stronger without having to wring its neck to get it moving. I think the handling would favor the M3 by a small amount. The V's brakes are better. The V's base seats are better than the M3. BMW's ala carte options list is maddening. To get the same level of options as the V has standard, the M3 will cost a few grand more. Also, for about $1000, there's another 100 hp to be gained in the V. GM leaves a lot on the table.
I think the gauge cluster is nice, and the steering wheel with the alcantara is really nice. Most of the car is not cheap plastic, it's real wood, real Italian leather, real soft touch dash, not cheap plastic.
Nah these were special coming out at the time. 2012 very few supercharged 4 door cars are was comin out like that, from the FACTORY. I’m not a big Cadillac fan, but I give em all the props fo makin dese whips. Very nice! 👍🏿
I own a CTS-V but I feel compelled to comment to all of you unknowledged doofuses hating on the M3. The M3 in these years had a N/A V8 that Revs to 8500 RPM’s, enough said go learn what that means, yes it has a lot less HP, but it has a N/A V8 that revs out, if you don’t understand why that is awesome you have a lot to learn.
You should definitely keep reviewing the older cars that are more affordable not saying this car isn't but like the vw review you had. Btw great and informative videos!
You were talking about the transmission. I like cars but I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to them. Can you replace the transmission to something with a dual clutch and faster shifting?
I really hope you get the top gear thing that would be crazy and maybe a big save ik it's a long shot but I think you would be an amazing top gear host and to have fun man !
firm seats reduce long-haul fatigue.I can drive a cts-v nonstop to L.A. from nor-cal and not be sore. I DO get sore on the same long haul with my cruze and its cushy seats.
Brabus is a third party tuning company, so it's definitely not "production". Hennessey makes a 1200 HP kit for the CTS-V, but that's not production either.
They're going in a different direction now and want to compete with the Germans. They do want to get back to the big luxurious stuff too which is why the Elmiraj concept was made and will likely go into production. I'm a big fan of classic cars so I love all the old Caddies but I wouldn't expect fins or super long bodies to make a comeback anytime soon :(
He mentions how poor the evo's seats are but I love them. I never ever ever feel uncomfortable driving my evo, I don't want big plush pillows when I'm taking corners that most cars can't take.. Anyway, does anyone have a good comparison between the evo 9's seats and these?
Im a huge fan of your channel and this video has to be old because the Dodge hellcat charger is the fastest sedan with 707 stock productional horsepower. But i love ur videos keep posting and try to get a hellcat review
I really like that Cadillac is probably the closest you'll get to to having a 4 door Corvette! I have 2 questions for you how much is that car with all the options? And is head up display on options for the Cadillac CTS V? Thank you for the information on your video thank you for your time keep up the good job.
I love the CTS-V. I have since the First Generation. However I haven't owned one..... yet. Question though. Did they not bother cleaning the car before they lent it to you? Seems to be really dusty both inside and out. Either way that is such a GOOD looking car in black. I've got a 2013 ZL-1 Camaro so I know that supercharged LS will get you moving. Was the 2013 CTS-V available with a real manual transmission as an option?
Years later, the CTS V is still badass. Tons of torque and power.
You can criticize the recaro seats, the infotainment system, the Government motors buttons all you want. The shiteating grin on your face betrays how you really feel about that car. By the way - those seats are meant to hold your ass in, because of the power that caused your shiteating grin in the first place.
Your a dumbass seats don't have to be hard to hold you in.
ashraf abuzahr
You're the dumbass. The firmness of those seats are adjustable.
Stalicone NO SHIT
Becuase your saying the seats are hard bevuase they hold you in. And I'm saying seats don't need to be stiff yo hold you in that's all.
To*
The CTS-V is geared towards the M5. Not the M3.
And I'd take the V. Easier to work one. Cheaper to maintain. And not as stuck up looking.
id take the m just cause its more fun to drive lol
Gary Meyers
To each his own I guess.
Gary Meyers imo, all bimmers look about the same, just different dimensions and proportions. where is the originality.Def not #1 in aesthetics.
I AGREE
Just like the "595 HP" Stickers under the hood... seriously..... thats just tacky and pretentious.
That is what makes this guy fun to watch! Don't change a thing, have a good time.
All this bickering between American and German cars is getting old. When will people be able to see past the manufacture's badge and respect a nice car when they see one?

@@romanlegion5837 well put
1000%
your reviews are good and your face is priceless, you don't hold back your enjoyment lol
Long term, I would think maintenance costs would be much more reasonable for the v than an m3. big selling point for me.
Plus it's anerican
+Jordan Woods American
m3's are expensive to maintain?
Any European car will cost a little more in maintenance, but performance lines (M, AMG, RS) will be especially. Friend's 2015 m3 oil change was $225 and brakes were quoted around $1200
+James Inkrott Okay thanks for letting me know, I was going to look at a 2004 m3 on Craigslist but I changed my mind.
This is the first time a tester did not recommend the recaro seats. All other testers that I am aware of says "make sure you get them" they are worth the extra 3 grand.
I have a 2012 V coupe with the Recaros, wouldn't have it any other way - the stock seats suck.

The CTS-V all day over any BMW, I'd rather have a hot wheels car over a any BMW car.
Lol???
hmmm.... no.....
Cts all day! Fuck the haters
+Matt what you mean no ?? you mutt !!
Johnny Barrett are you serious? Over the m5 f90? Or the M6?
love the look of Cadillac's
Gotta love how it performs too!
@@ivangaspar3949 I just love cadillacs. I just wish they sold more and people wake up and realize Germans aren't as reliable
I just HAVE TO SAY that intro with the great angles and music gave me chills. SubaruWrxFan you do the best intros!
Thanks alot for the support in using our music man! :) Really well made video, impressive!
the ctsv is a fantastic car. Thought i'd never get this in automatic.
The automatic is actually very crisp. I just bought a 2014 with the automatice, and I have driven stick for years, and I was very pleasantly surprised. Plus, the manual is pretty rare in 2nd generations.
bumoffhtestreet tuning the trans greatly improves the shifting time compared to stock
Wasn't this car made to compete with the M5 & not the M3?
FuuuWhatYouThink that would make more sense
Way more exciting than the Corvette. The supercharger really adds to the experience. This felt way better in the corners than the corvette did too in my opinion.
when the video started i was expecting “Rev up your engines!”
this is the best review ever. i drove the ctsv once but had the dealer person in the passenger seat so i couldnt floor it as much.
It's cool to see how much you enjoy testing the car, especially the WOT runs. I own a bolton c6 vette that runs 11.90's but am thinking of getting a V for it's everyday practicality and performance.

About time you get new wheels for your biannual X-country pilgrimages
Your reviews are honestly just so honest and just perfect but the one thing I personally would really love to see are a couple of revs from both interior and exterior :)
This really makes me miss my 2009 CTS-V, which I should never had sold. *sigh*
595hp? Did the guy add that up on his calculator according to the airaid/corsa packaging? ...or actual dyno numbers?
I'm guessing it's just an estimate but it's probably pretty accurate.
its probably tuned
Harrison Brady It just has an intake and exhaust, no actual engine tuning was done. Still a stock tune.
Probably at the crank. which would translate to about what? I'd guess around 506 HP to the wheels.

Nice review bro. I appreciate your honesty and I also appreciate that you really love cars. Keep up the good work.
Subaruwrxfan - I gotta say, you are doing a much better job with these than when you started. Props.
i can tell my dad is having a mid life crisis because he has been looking to get one of these for a year now :) great review!
ravesilly I’m having too, cheated on my and now I want a CTS V. I’m back with my wife tho.

Hopefully I can afford one of these at some point. i would love one with the 6-speed manual.
6:30...I love how your speech dramatically changes after the acceleration. Haha, you can tell your heart rate skyrocketed
The V all day! The seats in this video are actually the upgraded options geared towards those that want to track the car. The stock seats are actually more comfortable to most people.
Your face when you rip the accelerator is so awesome, wish I could drive this thing.
Black and lightly modded this is exactly what I want for my next sports/luxury car.

1) WAGON
2) More power and significantly faster
3) Better brakes

4) Hydrolic steering is awesome

Yeah. My V is a manual wagon too, and M3 drivers just think they are the fastest things on the road. They can't understand why they get smoked so badly every time they try me.

Nah these were special coming out at the time. 2012 very few supercharged 4 door cars are was comin out like that, from the FACTORY. I’m not a big Cadillac fan, but I give em all the props fo makin dese whips. Very nice! 👍🏿

Those Recaro seats are an option. Base models come with regular Cadillac seats
Those seats feel firm to him because he weighs 100 lbs
I'd have a m3. What's was the mpg in the cts v when you drove it????
What type of rear spoiler is that? I'm looking to put one on mine
thank you
Thank you for this review wrx fan
Can't wait for these to come to Australia.
The seat is too firm? So insightful. It's an option from the base cushy seats
Your great! Keep making more reviews! Looking forward to them.
the brabus CLS is 900hp if i remember well, but maybe it's not considered production right?
Brabus is a third party tuning company, so it's definitely not "production". Hennessey makes a 1200 HP kit for the CTS-V, but that's not production either.
My god what a beauty, i would just remove that spoiler.

So wait, you kinda side stepped the decision between the m3 and ctsv. If you had to have only one which would it be?
Thanks, and yep, once I can find one to drive I will.
If you think the controls are difficult, ever see the mess of buttons on an audi a8?
i didn't know that this cadillac has that kind of power, outstanding O: !
the song at the end ?
Pro-tip for changing audio ... it’s all on the screen. You want XM? Push the button that says “XM”. Crazy right?
Firm seats? If you weighed more than 90lbs you might sink in?
595hp ............... and now you know why the Recaros are so firm. What a putz!.
Matt, how much horses did the lamborghini gallardo have?
WoW! I never thought I'd see Beavis in human form.
He mentions how poor the evo's seats are but I love them. I never ever ever feel uncomfortable driving my evo, I don't want big plush pillows when I'm taking corners that most cars can't take.. Anyway, does anyone have a good comparison between the evo 9's seats and these?
Hey do you think you can review the dodge durango or get a hold of one , the r/t version is sick
Im a huge fan of your channel and this video has to be old because the Dodge hellcat charger is the fastest sedan with 707 stock productional horsepower. But i love ur videos keep posting and try to get a hellcat review
I really like that Cadillac is probably the closest you'll get to to having a 4 door Corvette! I have 2 questions for you how much is that car with all the options? And is head up display on options for the Cadillac CTS V? Thank you for the information on your video thank you for your time keep up the good job.
I realy want to know your opinion of the ford focus st
I love the CTS-V. I have since the First Generation. However I haven't owned one..... yet. Question though. Did they not bother cleaning the car before they lent it to you? Seems to be really dusty both inside and out. Either way that is such a GOOD looking car in black. I've got a 2013 ZL-1 Camaro so I know that supercharged LS will get you moving.
Was the 2013 CTS-V available with a real manual transmission as an option?
