agree on your final point about value for the money. pretty shocking really how nice a car you can get in the used market. i think the love for the german and japanese cars in this market segment push down the resale of these cadillacs. good for us!
100%!
You are spot on with this video. They are giving these cars away. I bought my 2014 luxury 3.6 awd a little over a year ago. It is optioned up a bit and listed at 49,000. Like you I was looking to stay under 20 grand. BMW, Lexus, etc all well over 20 or had super high miles. Picked the Caddy up for 17,300 with 29000 miles. They were asking 18,900. It is the best handling non modified car I have ever owned hands down. I do wish it had more torque. On the things you hate video I agree controls are frustrating. The other stuff though; I average 22 mpg and I drive the car pretty hard but I don't have much stop and go traffic. Trunk is tighter than my old Acura TL but with the Luxury version of the ATS the rear seat fold flat! I can fit my road bike back there no problem. My run flats were replaced so no worries there. Overall I love the car. If it had a manual I would never get rid of it. Thanks for the video!
For the money you really can't beat it, and they really do handle great. It's like a V6 Camaro in a fancy suit haha
Hell yeah man. Dads got a v6 camaro and I’m on my second v6 ATS. In love with these cars. Wouldn’t mind a V after I’m done with college haha
I see your build in fb groups! You gotta drop progress videos of your car, that things a beast.
same absolutely! love my Cadillac ATS. it's a 13 so it's a little more outdated than the 15s but I love it. I have the base luxury trim. still have the performance features though I got lucky 😅 all-wheel drive automatic transmission sedan V6 absolutely love it! definitely recommend it, especially if you want something smaller than the CTS but feel like you're driving a CTS
How does it compare to the 2.0?
I've seen a few used options for the ATS. It's just so annoying when the infotainment is terrible. Luckily there are a few options for adding Apple CarPlay, although they aren't cheap or easy to install.
Awesome video! Great highlights of your Cadillac ATS!

I own the 2013 ats v6 premium like this with the red morello seats I love it
I have the Premium trim and love the magnetic shocks and heads up display, limited slip differential, all around brembo disc brakes and the 18 inch rear and 17 front tires.
I would have loved to find a premium trim, they are very nice!
Who knew reviews on this car would get so many people to tune in? Im looking at one of these as a driver, enjoyed your tskes on the good and bad!
I appreciate it! I tried to convey that no car is perfect, and although I enjoy the ats a lot, it makes compromises so that other aspects are good.
I have a 2017 2 litre turbo and I love it and I paid 20K for it with 50K on it when puchaced used. the auto seat going all the way back when I first got it was too anoying i figured out how to disable that feature and all is good now. I just had to read the manuAL
I had to keep mine on! Just made it a little easier to get in and out 😆
I’m about to buy a 2016 for $25k with 67k miles. That’s crazy how much the used car market has raised
Just turn your auto exit seat off. Or set the exit not going back. It’s really not hard. This must be your first luxury car. My 98 sts had the same feature and basically same button layout.
@@eddietrexler836 ouch!! I just bought a 14 with 70k on odometer 2.0t performance trim rwd and I paid 19
@@adamhayden5152 I bought a 2014 luxury 2.0L turbo for $21,000 back in 2018 with 28K miles. Now I’m at 77,000 miles and the car still runs like a champ with no problems. Truly a great and reliable car!
I got a 2014 2.0 turbo and it barely sip gas I for the power, it has not the punch of my srt4 but they did a great job with the direct injection setup! So great gas mileage can be added on the 2.0 highlights
Have you thought about tuning it? Always heard the 2.0's really wake up with a tune
Nice review. I am also enjoying the ride suspension and handling. Mine is '14 rwd with the 2.0. I'm a little jealous of the power the V6 serves up.
Appreciate it! It's definitely a great handling car. The V6 is good right out of the box but that 2.0 has a lot of aftermarket potential
I just bought one of these today for 17500! I love it so far
Congrats!
Still Enjoy it? No Issues? I’m Lookin at One for 20,998 tomorrow with 50k miles On it
I got my 2014 Cadillac ATS 3.6L V6 Performance for 13k in April 2020. I love the car paid 13k for mine.
Good deal!
How many miles were on it? And any issues with it yet? I'm looking at some in that range as well
@@joshobrochta160 Dunno if you got one yet, but stay away from the 2013 model. Check out carcomplaints for reasons why
@@sm0kezer092 yeah I read up on the issues the 2013/14s had. I ended up getting a 2016 2.0t awd about a month ago
Hey man I have the same exact car but in the Cadillac red and I absolutely love it💯. You did a great job on really pointing out many of the great features on the car!!! Keep up the good work 🙃
Thank you! I appreciate it
Hey I just purchased a 2014 Cadillac ATS.
Congrats!
Dude, you forgot about the magneride. Its the best feature i love about mine.
The AWD models don't have it unfortunately. They just get the FE2 suspension I believe
I love my led door handle and drl’s!!!
Just picked up the turbo model can confirm it’s more fun than the V6
I highly doubt it
I bought my 2014 2.0 with 33,000mi almost 2 weeks ago for 16 grand soon to add the catch can
Nice!
I got the same car just the premium!
The premium is nice! Better interior materials
Better than European junk they make
I don't know about taking that v6 over the 2.0l. Especially, when you get the mpg. ESPECIALLY, while doing Uber and having awd. YOU should have also mentioned the Sunroof.
Stock vs stock I prefer the v6. More power, revs higher, and sounds way better
Nice to hear these things from an owner. I’m researching/in the market for an ATS Performance. I’be never owned a modern GM car (my parents had some GMs when I was a kid). I’ve only owned Toyota or Honda so far personally… both known for (and I can attest) for their reliability… so that is my main concern - How reliable are these cars, has there been many issues? If properly maintained, are they kind of problem free? With a used Honda or Toyota, I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase a well maintained 100k+ mile used car… but I’m wondering if it’s the same with these - or should I be sure to find something with much less miles on it? Thanks, if you have time to offer some insight with your experience..
Powertrain wise you don't have much to worry about. The 3.6 I had is a very common motor throughout GM. I would mainly be concerned with the electronics. I've seen the screens freeze up on these cars with over 100k miles, but it's still something that can be fixed with a days worth of work and a few hundred bucks for a replacement
@@RDMotoring awesome thanks a lot for taking a minute to offer some advice. That’s good to know and something I’m definitely able to handle as I’m stereo install experienced.. I generally like when the vehicles has just a basic double-din that can be swapped for a more modern aftermarket unit… but I’ve seen it’s possible to get apple CarPlay going on these, and that’s mainly what I want.
I own one of these premium ATS I love mine but I’ll be selling mine soon,coming from a guy that owns a used dealership I tried lots of cars this car is fun fast/ luxury I love it . If intrested let me know I’ll be selling mine in the next month it’s a 2013 Cadillac ATS Premium AWD has only 71k miles and all the bells and whistles including heads up display lane assist and much more . Get a cheap Airline ticket 🎫 spirit and I’ll pay ticket/reimburse you, pick you up from airport you would just have to drive back to whatever state your from,Selling for 12k cash located in Minneapolis,Minnesota
@@mplscarsales6652 I’m in chicago… coincidentally I have a flight to Minneapolis in the morning. But I currently have 3 vehicles and no space for another. I’ve been looking at these as a possibility if I decided to sell my 2 coupes, but it’s something I’d need to work on in advance to make happen. Thanks for letting me know about it tho.. sounds like a pretty good deal.
It's also a V6 that only requires regular gas
One of the reasons I went for the V6! Plus right out of the box it's a strong little motor
More bells n whistle which none of the foreign can touch to offer
100%
@@RDMotoring yup I tell people just cause its foreign doesn't means its good or better or makes it better like bmws for example my moms had a BMW 2016 5series my dad had a cadillac was 3 years older and outlasted my moms bmw which her bmw had spent more time in shops and had alot more issues and that car was only at 77k miles and my dads cadillac is nearly at 140,000 still running ahaha bro I seriously I think people overrate foreigns European are the worst for reliability
@@issavibez394 They definitely are way overrated. I'm sure they are great when they're in warranty but as soon as that's up it's all downhill
@@RDMotoring lol yup pile of junk lol my dads cadillac lasted so much longer than my moms bmw and hers was like 4 years newer than the cadillac and the bmw had more time s in the shop ahaha german engineers same with Nissan and kia and Hyundai no wonder I see so much in service departments
i’m 16 and am buying the v6 version, any more tips or anything i should know ? Thanks!
Honestly there's not much too it. It's a really solid, fun car that I'm sure you'll enjoy. You can check out my "5 things I hate" video for stuff you might have not thought about. Congrats on the purchase btw!
We got a 2017 on Friday from Carvana with the 3.6
Very fast car and we love it. Just not the type of American reliability that lasts though.
Nice spec! I really like that Kona brown leather
@@RDMotoringSure is!
I’ve hit 150mph in my 2.0L turbo on Dallas north tollway. Took a minute but it was FAST
My dad has that car LOL! :D
Me and you the same height bro. I’m looking into getting one myself. Thanks for the positive review. I just viewed your previous review. It’ll be perfect for me because it’s just me. Does this car take only premium gas? Take care!
Good news is the 3.6 actually takes regular, only the 2.0t takes premium
I got a 2.0L turbo and I only fill up on premium but I still wouldn’t give up my turbo for a V6 I love the boost in first and second gear. High octane baby
fellow NJ-ian
Mine was 25
You think it’s good now upgrade your front and rear sway bars add strut tower brace and zzp rear links and spl front lower control arms and you be flying!!!
Just got a steal on my 2014 ATS 2.0t same interior, only for 2500$ with 138000 miles
$2,500?? That's incredible
Do you mean 25k? Ive seen wrecked ones needing 10k worth of work asking 3k
Yea something ain’t right here 2,500 don’t get you 138k miles definitely not running and driving
Old lady close by wants to sell me hers all black for $7000 it that a good deal
How many miles? And what trim?
Miles Trim engine AWD matters a lot on value
The 3.6L V6 engines are TRASH! Coming from multiple reputable mechanics have said this engine is almost as bad as the Shit Star engines caddy used to have. Get the 4cyl 2.0T instead. The 45 or so horsepower you lose in the 2.0T compared to the 3.6L V6 can easily be gained + with 1 or 2 simple mods and a tune without the greater chance that your engine shits itself. Also get a coupe over a sedan the coupes look so much better. Not to mention the ATS Coupes are a lot more rare than the sedans I’ve seen ratio’s as much as 15-1/20-1.
actually no, I don't know what V6 you have. maybe the past owners did not take care of it very well but we have v6s and V8 in my family and they are both over. wow 400,000 mi haven't had to change a thing drives just like it came out of dealership. I definitely recommend getting a V6 Cadillac anything V6 from GM. if you want to save gas. if I don't get another V8 in my future I will be getting another V6
2.0 is funner!
3.6 sounds better though... 😉
2.0 blows turbos
