Just got a 2017 ATS-V sedan three weeks ago and I already love it.
Only had 15k miles.
Trash
Still got it?
@@josephr.bidenjr9908 Yep.
@@josephr.bidenjr9908 Yes.
these cars a bad ass. Ive been a euro snob for a long time (Ive owned MBs, BMWs, Audis and Saabs), but I lust over the ATS V
Probably because the ATS-V is the closest thing to a German car you can get from the US, advanced handling characteristics, a modern designed engine and drive train, and a 0-60 time of 4 seconds (3.9 has been achieved)
If you're a euro snob that has owned german cars, why the hell would you LUST for an ATS-V... just take your stupid ass to the dealershit and buy one. Geezuz chryst.
***** uuuuh, why dont you mind your own business and be less obnoxious...but if you must know why i dont take my stupid ass to the dealership and get one, its because i'm mid lease on my golf r right now. geezuz chryst.
*****
lol... I thought you were big ballin the way you talked about all the german cars you've owned. Nevermind playa... ha ha.
***** one accumulates wealth by being smart with money and not throwing it at everything i want. could i afford it? yes. do i need another car right now? no....you infer so much from so little information its hilarious.
God bless America and God Bless Cadillac...
I love all the styling features of these cars
I own ATS 2.0T 2017, and mine runs in 5.4 0-60 as well as 14.1 For a quarter-mile and being a city driver for most of the time I don’t need ATS-V in my life unless only if I’d be looking for more speeding tickets
Let me save everyone the need to complain about motorweek's 0-60, & 1/4 mile times....the CTSV is a 0-60 in 3.7, & 1/4 in 11.6 @127mph car all day long
yeah....right..
Thanx a lot
Guess what Street most people are doing runs on.... The streets
I did
+Patrick B ...No magazine does a 1/4 mile test on a prepped drag strip.
I love these two especially the coupe ATS V. They look and perform amazingly. Good job Cadillac, america is finally making good cars. I actually think America started making good cars around 2012. Anyway I love these two.
Well I guess as a pontiac/holden G8 GT driver I don't really fit in here, but I had an 08 C350 also and loved it. I prefer smaller quick cars so definitely eyeing the ATS V in a few years
Just watched the Cadillac Cimeron review. I bet he can't believe how much better they are now! lol
I love the Cadillac CTS-V, my favorite Cadillac sedan!!!
C to the T to the S and A to the T to the S both with a V..
I was on the fence as to which of these I'd buy...then the 20 grand difference came up. ATS all the way.
Well, that and the fact that the CTS-V sucks down an extra thousand gallons of gas per year for a negligible increase in performance. Now if the CTS-V matched the Shitvette around a track, then the ATS-V can go to hell, because that's a nightmarish difference in performance.
@@TasteMyStinkholeAndLikeIt if you’re worried about fuel consumption why would you ever look at a high performance luxury sedan? Yes, the CTS-V is more expensive than the ATS-V … but I will take an SCV8 (with tons and tons on bolt on upgrades available) over a TTV6 every time.
I purchased this car after returning home from Afghanistan traded in my 6spd 05 CTSV FROM 400 hp to 640hp was just what I needed to keep the wife outta my damn car she hates all that power but I love it gave her my 09 Audi S8 v10 but CTSV smokes that like a cheap cigar glad I got one of these no ceramic brakes needed. Come on BMW Audi Benz smoke all you.
Yeah, well try comparing a newer S8 to that car. S8 will win the drag races.
Imagine if the ATS got this design update. It would kill it's competition easily.
Music?
ATS-V M3/M4 Killer
Pseudo Smith sure it is
Yea it will. Check out my CZcams page.
Yeah the CTSV V is a quicker car than motorweek test figures
Eric Haley there’s altitudes and weather brohan
ATS V with just a tune and some pipe modding gets 570 hp.. easily makes low 11s quarter mile... seen and proven in youtube videos..
I have a ctsv wagon but if they ever make this generation into a wagon I'll be the first in line.
Awesome, hold on to it. Very collectable and rare. If you haven't yet, watch the Top Gear review of the wagon.
+H Mack, Head 2 Head recorded the ATS-V 0-60, 3.7 w/8sp. auto against the MB/AMG 63s the V out performed it!
When you look at the enormously additional HP/TQ required by the CTS-V to beat the much weaker M4 around the 4.1 mile VIR track by 3 seconds, it speaks to how lousy the CTS-V really is. Hell, the M4 GTS, still much weaker than the CTS-V, beat the CTS-V by 3 seconds... so the CTS-V sits dead center between the M4 and the M4 GTS on the track... both much weaker cars. The CTS-V is just a shitwagon gas sucking pig. LOL.
@@TasteMyStinkholeAndLikeIt he said ATS-V not CTS-V. Nice rant though.
Geez how many other mw fans been watching since 1987?
Too bad GM/Caddy is not making this after '19MY. The CTS-V, RS7, and E63 Wagon are on my shortlist..... each is an awesome car
Definitely love the CTS-V from the beastly Z06 Engine, overall handling, and fantastic performance while looking very sleek and classy outside and inside. The ATS-V is pretty good to, but the exterior looks to boy racerish to me especially the front end, and it seems the Camaro SS is a better value while performing almost as good. Another thing of the ATS-V I'm surprised is it doesn't have the CTS-V digital instrument cluster, but instead the same instrument cluster on the other ATS models, which in my opinion looks like 90s GM. That, the center console touch controls, and the cramped interior were the biggest negatives for me when I test drove a ATS 2.0 last year.
The CTS-V is a piece of shit. When it can circle the track like a Vette, then they'll be on to something.
the new CTS-V and camaro ZL1 are very very good on track, Z06 has still overheat problems, greetings from germany ;-)
TasteMyStinkhole Circle the track like a Vette? It's a 4200 lb sedan, adjust your expectations a little bit
ATS-V with a little tune up to 500hp is a beast and a nice daily driver BUT the oldfashioned interior SUCKS !
Caddy pls look at our new AUDI A4 gauges with 2 x 12" displays and Navi direct in front of the driver if you like to.
👏🏻👏🏻
The GT-R's 3.8 makes 80 more hp. GM needs to squeeze more ponies out of it's venerable 3.6. My 2008 Aura XR is only rated at 252, but with K&N intake and resonator delete, it's about 262hp, so nothing compared to these beasts!
I followed this link from the MotorWeek article that was featuring this video, but there's one huge thing missing from both this video and the
Performance numbers on the track!
These are not drag racers these are road for God's sake publish the damn lap times!!!
silent but deadly?
It's crazy I just watched the m5 vs crab from 09, that caddy had 100 less hp and was .2 seconds slower to 60 and the atsv is a 100 hp less then the 09 and runs same in 60. I no all the variables come into play, curb weight- outside temp,etc. I guess that 4.2 number just out to me.
bring out an Escalade V and a CT6 V
Eric Haley looks like you've got the ct6 v! (Er v sport... close enough)
Sam Dixon Just a little while ago they changed it to a CT6-V, deleting the V-Sport models from their lineup. Then abruptly discontinued it.
John Davis the best in the business! America CAN make the best cars in the world also.
Hey MotorWeek can we get Retro Review video of the 1991-1994 Mercury Capri.
Lol, why???

This this the era where Cadillac went back to their roots on being the Best Car to have!💪🏽 The CT6, CTS & ATS where the best cars Cadillac made since the 60s but in GM Fashion they had to ruin it! Canceling the CT6 soon as we got the BlackWing V8! Then watered down the ATS which became the CT4 & CTS that became CT5🙄. Does GM not understand that when you have a good thing just STICK WITH IT! Why do you think The Japanese & Germans are the go to cars?! Because they stick with a name and just improve on them. TAKE NOTES AMERICAN AUTOMAKERS! You too Ford for finally building good quality cars that drove European Taurus SHO Fusion 2.0 & 2.7Ecoboost & Focus ST & RS then discontinuing them. I see why ppl would rather have a Toyota/Lexus or Honda/Acura🤷🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
wish the cts had a coupe version : /
the ats does 👍
ya, but its not the same :(
They have a coupe now bro
Watch out boys, the next gen of ctsv will have the chassis architecture of the ct6, lot lighter and stiffer with 4 wheels steering
No it wont
They need to make elmiraj and, escala into production.They also should do a ct5, and ct4. And a ct4-v sport should have a, tuned up version of the 3.6tt ats v and, the ct4 v should get the 6.2 lsa tuned up from 2nd gen cts v. and the ats v+ should get a tuned up lt4 from the current 3rd gen cts v. Also the ct5v sport should get the 4.2tt that the ct6v sport will have and the ct5v, and ct6v should get the lt5 the zr1 has. But both should be tuned up not down like they did with the ctsv. Because both cars will be a lot heavier than the zr1. Also should make a ct5v+ that would add turbos to the ct5v. Also they should try a limited edition cadillac Fleetwood that should have 4 engine specs. A refined 7.7 big block n/a engine, a v sport v12, a v series with a refined tuned up version of the 2003 cadillac 16 concept engine, and a Fleetwood v+ that adds tt's to the v16.This car should compete directly with the phantom, and maybach. Also they should make a redesigned xlr with the 4.2tt engine. And a xlr v with the lt5.and tt charged lt5 in a xlr v+. Also they should make a super luxury suv and, call it a cadillac succubus, and they also should make a full size pick up that get the best features out the silverado high country, the ram limited, the raptor, navigator and, of course the escalade. Also it should have tt 6.2l v8 engine. With a 600+hp and 645+lb ft of torque. And with an v10 option. And have best in class cargo and hauling capability. and, bring back the escalade ext. also produce a mid engine ttv16 that's awd and a electric engine in the front of the car that can give the tesla roadster a run for it's money without the v16. It should have the back glass open a storage compartment over the ttv16. And call it cadillac undisputed. Also none of these should get tuned down from other versions of these motors, platforms, or drivetrains. Also in the v, and v+ models. They should add a small electric engine to run an a/c to the intake and to the rest of the car so that the engine doesn't need to run a compressor. Also have a slightly bigger alternator to help keep the other battery charged. And of course have a plug in option. Also the cadillac undisputed should have that same system. Also they should do a vote every 5-10 years to bring back 1 classic cadillac with a option to make it be an exact replica, or have it refined with the latest technologies the ones who preorders them can have that option. I say they could cut out Buick all together to help fund these. Sell about 90% of the old Buick dealerships and, keep about 10% of them in places cars like these will sell and, rename the dealerships to the super cadillac dealerships, or the Cadillac elite dealerships. If it proves success. Then bring back Buick with cars like cadillac has now. And just have Cadillac as a super luxury brand. And when they bring back Buick add 2 Pontiacs rebranded as buicks the trans am, and gto.
They won't let Cadillacs have more power than the ZR1. You are dreaming... a beautiful dream nonetheless
Emission standards will not allow that unless they turn into a supercar company and that would send costs through the roof...
Why need a 7.7 big block that makes 600tq at the tap and only makes 300hp when you can go with a 6.2l supercharged and make the same..
They're downgrading because of emission standards to the 4L TT v8
i would like to know what percentage of these cars are actually taken to a track. I would say most of them are driven by Valet's at 5 star restaurants.
Bradford Hart u would be incorrect
you're right, they are probably parked at the local Sonic drive-in
cts v no manual option? wtf gm.....
+SteelCity1981 Neither does Audi, Bmw or Mercedes
SteelCity1981 bmw yes
They did on the older ones.
They need better wheel designs for these cars. Very plain.
so with a light weight chassis a 8 speed transmission a 3.6L turbo 6, rwd and only 460hp it still gets GTR mpg ... weird
what? the gtr does get less and the real world MPG of the gtr is lower than the ATS, another side note here is the 3.8L in the gtr is bigger than the LT4 in the vette also heavier by almost a whole 4 cyl, also the 6.2L SC v8 gets better MPG than both the GTR and the ATS. you can read their reviews of the gtr they got lower real world MPG thats the nature of turbos, after all we dont wall drive on EPA rollers. - ps: next time be a bit more educated thanks.
+matthew von BURNED
+matthew von the gtr gets worse mpg and it even gets worse mpg to corvettes lt4 v8. why u be lyin?
PLEASE don't ruin this car with AWD
Carbon fiber is almost never an aesthetically pleasing material.
These cars get 17 and 19 miles per gallon, I am averaging 63 miles per gallon in my Cadillac ELR. Enough said.
"It makes the CTS-V rocket out of corners in a way that German sports sedans can only think of"
That one lone made me unsub lol. Not even close to German
Orion Keeter and you know, right?
Maicquan McFarlan Dude, don't talk to him like that, he might be *The Stig* .
I see the German cars get smoked all the time by CTS-Vs on the track. Cadillac is a dominate force on the race track.
@@kevinwilliams2275 to say they're a dominate force is laughable. They're great cars and great track cars. Base entry Porsche beats on them
@@semperumbra10 Maybe you should watch the races and see for yourself. New Vette does well too, won all three of the first IMSA races. Daytona prototypes do very well also. Cadillac powered.
...Does MotorWeek no its not 1997 anymore? Why does there commentators and actions seem so damned old? Get with the times already, Do the fun stuff like MotorTrend.
For some reason that guys monotone voice is annoying.
In the way of the German sedans could only dream of??? Lmao I knew Motorweek was biased towards American cars but could you make it anymore obvious!!! This car would get shitted on by the RS6 and E63 AMG
Lol ok...
+Carl Manney Yeah right.
they making a new e63 amg? cause today's version will get blown away by the cts-v....moment of silence.
+Carl Manney As a life long Motorweek viewer, I can tell you that if anything Motorweek have always been BMW and Mercedes fanboys if anything. Especially beamers.
idiotic comment.
The Cadillac cars its worst car ever. Always have problem with transmission
never heard that from anyone
