Another great review. I was looking g for my next car and liked the CT5 packing in terms of being able to get a V6 in the premium luxury without having to go with a sport package. I found the rear seats incredibly uncomfortable after 10 minutes being in the back. They are too stiff. Also the interior components feel really cheap. I ended up deciding on another the ACURA in the end and here’s why. I’ve had many American vehicles in the past, and their quality / durability has always been problematic. Numerous trips to the dealer for things that break or wear out prematurely. Had both GM and Ford, and had nothing but problems during the entire warranty and extended warranty period. Even reading the quality reviews of North American products, they rank much lower than Japanese brands. I ended up getting an RDX Elite A-Spec in the end over a replacement TLX sedan because they didn’t offer a TLX with the Platinum elite package any longer. You’re forced into Type-S which I didn’t want, or a well equipped TLX. No more adaptive dampers, 360 camera, and 16 way power seats. If you spend a lot of time driving you’ll appreciate those features.
Very disappointed that your review did not discuss or cover one of the most important aspects of a car purchase: Specifically how comfortable is the ride! This is more important to mention than a gear shift knob!
Very nice review but for under 50k American I can get a Lexus ES350 with a 302 hp V6 & a Mark Levinson sound system plus better reliability. Easy choice for me

I do a whole roadtrip drive and super cruise with it in the video.
It's a Cadillac, enough said. All Cadillac rides are superior.
