Easily one of the sexiest cars ever built. Cadillac(GM in general) has really stepped up their game.
FearlessP4P1 It finally make sense why Hollywood, DC, Marvell, Netflix and etc are all in US.
They havent stepped up their reliability though, its still terrible.
Car: Built in America. Engine options: Built in America. Transmission: Built in America. Engineering: American. If you're an American you should cheer for this car to be successful.
lol
I'm in Australia and I'm cheering for it to be successful too, and there are rumours we'll be importing it - fingers crossed!
Eh no, because American cars suck lmao. I'll stick with Kia
@@jickccjk Genesis is nice, I much prefer the styling of the Kia Stinger and K900 to Genesis models, but they're all nice.
59k is too expensive but way better than German piece of shts
incredible, for the price of a 5 series you get a car that is closer to the size of an S class or 7 series while weighing less than a CTS or 5 series. that blows any thing from Lexus, Acura, Lincoln, or Infiniti away in Luxury, quality, and materials. well done cadillac a huge value.
3600 lbs for the 4 cyl and 3800 for the TTV6 is just crazy
clovis myers Yup, way below it's competitors, game changer.
justin bouche ugly car overall tho
lol

Bad review in Motor Trend's 2017 car of the year.... A MUST read before thinking of purchasing it .. a MUST... It's NOT a true flagship, and it's NOT a 5 series or E class competitor, Theodore said. Cadillac suffered disapointing glitches during testing... As Evans put it: The body is writing checks the rest of the car can't cash !!!!
You see Pisspants, you're just bullshit once again..... You don't know what you're talking about ... AGAIN
This car will be a future classic in terms of design and style
It has 34 BOSE speakers? Wow! I bet that'll make the car sound like you're at a symphony or a concert.
It reminds me of a white tiger, aggressive and elegant
That has balls? None of the Corvettes or Camaros have balls? I thought balls meant a lot of power.
Cory R Fuck vettes and camaros
I want this car. Almost this EXACT car. I love them so much when I see them on the road
Hunter Dugas but i bet you love your cousin more😉
Chief Keef Llama tf
Hunter Dugas yeah my dad has this car so I consider myself lucky, cuz he's a retired cop...
Fucking idiot.
Hunter Dugas they're BEAUTIFUL. I saw one for the first time the other day and almost drove off the road.
Never fails, 16:00 "Let's turn down into this back road here." Always looking forward too that part.
wow i have to say this car is absolutely gorgeous!
It's 2023. I just found a 2017 CT6 Platinum at CarMax. I'm glad I found this video to confirm what I'm going after.
I look at this car in person and still can't believe someone actually bought it. It's beautiful and it's a hard car to find in the wild
I love your reviews Matt! You’re always excited to test it, no matter what it is! I have a 2018 ct6 platinum with all options, including “super cruise”. I can’t say enough about this car! We live in Canada, & winter drive it with studded snow tires. It’s my wife’s daily driver, and she travels for work. With the AWD and ice/ snow mode, there’s never an issue. Black with maple sugar interior, and get regular “ thumbs up” from people! 3litre twin turbo is wicked fast! My buddy has a Challenger SRT8, and I can embarrass him because of the AWD! My only regret is; I didn’t wait for the Blackwing V8
This car is next level stuff.
Excellent review. I love this car. Cadillac is a fantastic American car. Whether it's luxury or sportiness, Cadillac doesn't disappoint. I think too many Americans love to self hate on anything American made. I don't understand the logic but it seems as though most Americans like to knock our things and promote foreign made things. This Cadillac is a fantastic vehicle and deserves great reviews. I just recently bought a new pickup truck that cost over $70k. With that said, $90k for this seems reasonable. I am not rich and my truck was the first time I ever was able to afford something in that price range. Instead of $110k for a similar BMW or $130k for a Mercedes, I would go for this Cadillac in a heartbeat. Thanks for the great review, well done. This vehicle makes me proud to say "Buy American". God bless us all.
That's why I like your channel, cause you're unbiased in your reviews. Also your enthusiasm is awesome not to mention your knowledge and info about all the cars you review. Thanks
We will be together someday my love 😍
LOL,GO GET IT.
Keep dreaming big girl
LiquidSm0ke smh
Ha! Has it happened?
Are you referring to the guy or the car? :)
I trust American cars more than German, even though I really admire German cars. I think one word that sums up this car is, "amazing."
Glycerin RWD full size non-landyacht? Yes please.
Always love how deactivate and excited you are in your reviews. I used to work for a tier one supplier for GM as an industrial designer and held my breath with disgust on fit and finish they have made huge leapes.. Great to see this finally..
Keep up the great work Matt.
Actually what can I say. This car is just so nice. It looks so good, and have so many functions, and all kinds of technology. Honestly it is like watching a Hollywood SciFi blockbuster, but it's also very practical. It's powerful but not aggressive. It's futuristic but still kinda compatible with all 'older' stuff. It offers gr8 experience for both driver and passenger, with nearly all dimensions. It's just so cool.
Cadillac is back. Style, performance, comfort and handling. Classy and elegant.
I like all the reviews from this guy, he knows how to enjoy the ride, fun to watch. Keep up the good work !!
I was surprised at the price was expecting like 110k for a platinum one but it was 90k! Seems just as good as an S class without the price. Luxury cars aren't my style but if they were I would probably go with one of these. Since I like performance I would choose the CTS V over all of them ;)
Pick it up off lease...2 years old, 50 % off....
Very thorough review. I was enthusiastic at first with my new 2017 CT6. but the last year has proven it to be the most troublesome new car that I've ever owned. Transmission failure, mechanical breakdowns and build quality issues have had my lemon CT6 in for repairs for more than 30 days.
The best reviewer.. always fun to watch his videos
The most beautiful and elegant car I've ever seen. good job 👍
Oz M. The Camaro, Corvette, SS, ATS, ATSV, CTS, CTSV, CT6, all the trucks... lol. GM makes tons of RWD cars
Mark of Excellence 2018 Cadillac CT6
This car has immense, lightweight aluminum construction that adds to the overall safe nature of this car. There are cars in the pipeline coming out that promise to place Cadillac at the forefront of design as well as technology!
I bought a six year old fully loaded DTS with 19,500 miles for 15 grand. Sadly only one massage function. ;-) Here's hoping I can pick up a low mileage CT 6 in six years. Nothing like a spacious car.
2016-2018 are best years. 2019 included cylinder deactivation which goes down into the drain.
I’m glad you like the DTS..... but they have head gasket failures......
And that massage chair is just more stuff to break.
This dude does the best car reviews.
I bought the ATS 3.6 naturally aspirated about a month ago and I got to tell you I'm in love with it!!
The CT6 starts in the low 50s, not 60s. And, I think this guy is just happy to be riding around in a CT6 pretending to be a boss. This dude gets to ride around for a week in a CT6, come on. His excitement shines through in this review .Cadillacs make the most classy cars right now period, not withstanding super luxury cars like Bentley etc, though.
All of Cadillacs current line up is classy looking, the best industrial design, all of the current line up, TBH.
Also how does this stack up in your opinion to the Buick LaCross? there will be people cross shopping both of these, I know quite a few people have done so already. Also, great review, thanks, subscribed.
Thanks for subscribing! I like this a lot better than the LaCrosse. Granted, a fully loaded LaCrosse costs as much as the base bare bones CT6 so that's to be expected I think. But the CT6 actually handles in a fun and impressive manner while the LaCrosse is just floaty. For those that aren't enthusiasts and don't care about the luxury features of the CT6, I'm sure the Buick will serve them fine. For those that are enthusiasts, I think the CT6 is the much more satisfying car to drive.
Dude everyone wants to drive this thing around like s boss.
Very nice review, even though it comes off a bit as a Cadillac ad, I'm sure the car comes by it honestly. It seems like Cadillac, if it hasn't exactly taken over for BMW making the sportiest luxury sedans, is finally giving them a real run for the money.
bmw really has something to stress about with cadillac around
America is back
Lol 2018 Yeaaaaaaaa Bout that!
Well now already this vehicle is discontinued. None were sold.
@@jacobreed47 because people prefers to buy euro piece of crap
Nope
"Lets turn onto this back road here" my fav part of every of his reviews
Matt, your demeanor between the CT6 and that blue Infiniti, whatever it was called, really tells the story here. This is why I like your reviews....honesty!
Onto the Caddy...it's an awesome ride and Lincoln has a long way to go to catch up. Looking forward to your review of the new Continental.
This car is just wow. So much tech and entertainment. This really focuses out of the 'you're driving in a car' more towards a 'just relax in our airplane on 4 wheels' kind of experience. Really reminds me of a Maybach. I mean, if something crashes, electronically speaking, I'd die, but if all works great this is so fucking cool!
I recently test drove one of these puppies. Finally! It is AS ADVERTISED. Incredible refinement, features, technology, power, handling, road manner, ride, materials. I am a sales & marketing consultant w/ automotive so I work regularly with Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Lexus, and Audi dealers. This vehicle goes toe-to-toe with ANYTHING from those brands, for less. I would 100% prefer to own one of these vs. an S class.
Really high quality review. I love how much attention you gave the interior details. Music was spot on this time in the intro and the camera work was really good. Keep it up!
Thank you!
Great car, ultimate cruiser. Nice coverage on this car, fine review!
Quite honestly, I feel like this is a modern mechanical masterpiece. Put it like this, if the only con to a luxury car is its MPG, the manufacturer did many things right in making it. Considering the "bargain" (yes I know its still not cheap by any means) that this vehicle comes in, people who are in the market for a ~$80k luxury vehicle would be hard pressed to do better than this.
I will take this over an s class! Btw, very nice review Matt!
A fully loaded CT6 is about the same price as a base S550...
Before anyone tells me that you can compare a Hyundai Genesis to a Cadillac. Newsflash rich people don't drive Hyundais. And I'm not even sure if it's a luxury car.
Sibjac Jay Those genesis are extremely luxurious my guy. I would put it on a level higher than Mercedes. Hermes did a special edition interior on one of the models.
Sibjac Jay i am biased to American cars, BUT you may change your mind if you sit in the Genesis G90.
@@DigitalSubset definitely no where near the Mercedes Benz S class. But you do get most of what Mercedes offers for a great bargain. I'd probably take the G90 over this Cadillac just because of the more floaty ride, cheaper price, and a few more rear seat options. Cadillac just looks like a stretched xts but the 2019 ct6 is beautiful . But I desire limousine ride over technology. So G90
Sibjac Jay I would never drive Korean cars no matter how good they are. Nissan Subaru or American
Sub. You are one heck of a reviewer!
Great review! Very cogent and honest. I've just decided what my next car will be. Thanks!
Been waiting for this one for a while! As always, great review!
Glad to hear your positive review of it because I've read all negative so far.
this is one beast of a luxury car id say better then a beamer or merc i love it you are a funny guy matt really like the way you talk about cars funny and childish keep it up
Such a great looking vehicle
Apart from the really cheap looking digital grapics on these Cadillacs, I fully understand why you like them. I was suprised by the CTS-V and I've also been in a CT6 just like this one here. Maybe they can sell a few here in germany:)
Thanks Guido! Hope to see a video with your impressions in the CTS-V!
subaruwrxfan
Didn't film it, just enjoyed driving it :D:D
I have a 2010 Lincoln MKS and I like it. The 2018 CT6 Platinum will be my next car...
Hell yeah that’s what I want too
A CT6 platinum in charcoal grey with vogues on it. They say it’s a old man car but I’m a young dude I love a Cadillac, let them other boys keep the hellcats
New V-sport is gonna be nuts I’m very proud of what Cadillac, and Lincoln for that matter is doing for the American Luxury car. Murica!!
"This car is a real crowd pleaser"
"Small world, all the moms know me"
Yet another quality video! Good job.
21:35. " let's turn into this backroad here "
With Matt there's always a backroad. Even on the highway.
Looks good. Cadillac has come a long way in the last few years. When my E350 gets to the 5 year range a year from now, I will probably replace it with a CT6.
Just purchased mine today.. And I LoVe it!!!! Same everything except my interior is beige..
I have a tip or something I would like to see Matt. I would like it if you showed the headliner and the dome lights in the front and rear seats if there are and the sun roof opening and closing. I don't know just something that I enjoy seeing and am curious about on most cars.
Wow if this is the future for Cadillac, they will do a great job!
I love the reviewer and I love the CT6 as well
Great review as always bro. I really love your enthusiasm in all of your reviews. I've watched many of your reviews but this is the first time I've posted. Thank you!
This car is absolutely ridiculous. I think nobody knows about these. This is a 7 series and S Class killer. You give up absolutely no luxury or performance with the CT6. I just got my first Cadillac 90 days ago. A total base XT5 and I love it! A great deal on the lease. The same big 3.6 V6 that is standard on this vehicle. These new generation Caddys bear no resemblance to the land yachts your grandparents used to drive.
JuggyGales1977 S classes and 7 series are unreliable piece of sht for gangstazzzzzzzzz
By the way smallest engined S class used to be driven by successful prostitutes.... I am not lying at all.
Excellent ! The most beautiful sedan that I've seen!
This Car is a beast, GM Cadillac out did themselves, very impressive, brilliant design.
Looks like the CT6 is going on my wish list. I think ive fallen in love lol.
Great Review as always!Greetings from Germany
Your review makes me want to get one. Well done!
I love this car... still watching the interview and don't know how it drive yet, but the interior is amazing
car is better then my house. Very impresive with al those options. Fun review to watch, very positive.
It sounds very insulated and quiet on the interior, I want to go test drive one of these now, thanks for the video.
I love your reviews, and I can tell how excited you are for this car. I love this car to begin with, and after watching your review I love it even more. Good job!
It's the closest Cadillac will ever come to building another DeVille Fleetwood
this car looks amazing. i would totally get one over the normal stuff (mercs, bmw, audi, etc). I love big luxury sedans and this one I'm sure it would fill all of the things I would like to have in a car. nice work caddilac, I think you finally did it. I'm new to your channel and im enjoying the contents so far. keep up and best of luck to you.
Cadillac has really stepped up their game.
It's very interesting that rear wheel steering is seeing this resurgence. I remember the 90's Japanese sports cars all tried to get the trend going without success
I LOVE this car, I want this.
Love your reviews man always a pleasure. Awesome camera shots and great delivery. Keep it up brother!
Waited so long for this 👌🏼 well done like always!!
BaseballPRO16 you sound like my girlfriend
Why? Have you been holding out?
Bruce Solomon ujkkiol?pokmny
I've never understood ppl who don't like full size luxury sedans, how could you not want to be comfortable and want power to get around?
Thank you for this video because I love this car since the commercial first came out and I'm going to work until i have one!!
This guy is the best reviewer on TH-cam. I look forward to your reviews and the time you give to each car. I think the Caddy is great but I wonder how resale will be against the big euro cars in 5 years? Thanks for the fun. Scott Austin Texas
Great review as always Matt. Always enjoy your reviews! Amazing car. Too bad GM is killing it off.
I love my Cadillacs. They are the only car I will drive. I have seen Cadillac evolve from baby limos to what we have today. There were some bad years but I buy a new one every year or 2 so someone else owns mine by the time it breaks down
Half way through this video and it's already jaw breaking holy cows! Cadillac launched it right out the ball park I'm so astonished by the loaded interior, this being an American car. But with so much tech on this thing, makes me wonder how much insurance would go for this beast. The more tech involved, the more there is to break.
That's a really good review Matt, Woof Woof
Your original intro is still the best!
it makes me so happy to see america is back in the gaaame
Woooow this Cadillac "CT6" is tottaly AMAZING ! Thank You #Cadillac #CT6 🇺🇸
What a flipping gorgeous car!
I think this is what I need to get when I upgrade my CTS
This guy is amazing. I actually bought the car because of him !!
A E is it reliable? (asking for CTS in general, not just the 2017)
Cadillacs a beautiful car
I have a 2014 cts luxury I love it
Stately... lots of ppl can't work a big body it's a special connection. The few times I'm proud of my Country!
This car and its siblings below (including SUV's) are what GM could successfully pitch in Japan. Japanese don't like import cars that resemble Japanese cars. Most American cars (and Korean ones) do. Cadillacs are very much distinctly American while of course functioning well in their own right. They'd sell well there.
Caddy was criticized during the credit crisis for not having enough fuel efficient engines. Now people are complaining that there no v8. Thing is it should have a v8 and evidently they’re going to put a v8 twin turbo in it. Imagine that. An affordable s class. That you won’t be embarrassed to be seen in in ten years. Unlike Mercedes and bmw.
Give me a loaded CT6 with the 640HP 6.2 V8!
Jeff L
Chevrolet SS( Commodore)...... under-appreciated combo.
GM is not going to make it.
I'd be interested in seeing how much like a stone the price drops after just one year used. I'd think that that $92k price tag would be sub $60 grand at most. in two years they'll be showing up at CarMax for $46-thousand. I hope not to be in the market for this type of ride for a few years yet but it's good to see Cadillac getting their stuff together...
You should go on tv your presence in front of a camera works well. Your review is invigorating and thank you for being quite frank about all the pluses and minuses.
Another great review Matt.
I never seen that much mouth drooling during any reviews on You Tube! If you like it, you like it!
I had a CTS, then left Cadillac for a sports car. This will be my next car.
I drive a 2010 Lincoln MKS Limited and I guarantee 💯.. This CT6 will be my next car
