    Eric let me drive his Cadillac ATS-V. I'm kinda shocked at how damn good it is. And fast.

      Too bad they screwed the pooch trying to copy the German naming-style, and just erasing 3 generations of CTS-V and the ATS-V name. Sorry, but CT4 and CT5 are horrible names....there is something about the "_ _S-V" at the end that just rolls off the tongue nicely.

    Awesome video, thanks for sharing. I have been using my ATS V on sport because I love the sporty feel, I had no idea that the track mode gave it more power.

    • @normalguysupercar

      Yeah it's definitely more fun in track mode.

    • @CMH_1975
      @CMH_1975 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      NRHTX I don't think it gives it more power. Just makes it tighten up the steering, suspension, opens up the exhaust, and makes the throttle more responsive. I test drove one last week and it didn't feel any faster between all the modes.

    • @frankr4118
      @frankr4118 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      There’s also another menu which surprisingly a lot of ATS-V owners are unaware of. It’s a menu which you can tap into only while you’re in track mode. While you’re in track mode, hit the traction control button on the steering wheel two times and you’ll see two traction icons light up on the left part of your dash. Once those two traction icons are lit, it opens up a new menu to you with 5 additional track modes to choose from with your mode button. The 5th mode which shows as “Race” is the wildest mode which assists the car the least of all five track modes. While It doesn’t give the car more horsepower, it does allow you to utilize the cars power with the least amount of restrictions which does give you the sensation that the car has more power. It feels so awesome in that mode. I use that 5th track “Race” mode all the time. It’s so fun. Once you’re done using those track modes, hit the traction button on the steering wheel again to go back to the regular menu.

      @@cesardavila6647 Reliability had been perfect so far, zero issues, nada. I've been in new Cadillacs since I was 24 when I got my first CTS, then to a gen2 CTS, then ATS, and now my V for over 3 years.
      During all of this time, the only issue I had was on my 2009 CTS...they had to replace my entire transmission after they went thru the protocols to try and fix. They loaned me a Buick Lucerne for the 18 day job...was like riding on a cloud on a boat, lol, was so nice at sucking up bumps and going over potholes in Detroit.

      You can go to the CadillacForums to the ATS-V section to hear others experiences...some are just like mine, while others have had some issues. I have a 2017MY that I spec'd out myself...I have a feeling they improved upon a few things, so my personal suggestion would be to get a '17-'19 if you can, as it seems most complaints were from the original 2016s.
