How reliable is the 2015 Cadillac CTS 2.0? I was thinking of getting it, as I need a car and would prefer something fairly reliable. I really like everything about the car, even though it's a V4 with 272HP.. but that's okay because I don't need to be in a rush anywhere. This car has 113k miles on it too.

I will be financing it, so I will be paying around 12k after everything. Is it worth it? Should I go for it? There may be a potential lein on the title.. should I just try to talk the price down?

2015 Cadillac CTS 2.0t vs. 2013 Hyundai Genesis 5.0 R-Spec

In the market for a new car, preferably something reliable and decent on gas. My current car (2005 Acura RL) has severe suspension issues, and costs a lot to repair, so I need a new car ASAP. I'm honestly over that car, because it's just going to be a moneypit trying to repair it. I've searched and searched for cars within my budget, that are reliable, comfortable, and decent on gas, but with little-to-no avail. I've tried looking for Japanese cars but only found Rogues and Accords galore. I've been warned not to go for anything that's been in an accident or doesn't have a clean title, so that also cut my options down significantly.

I know the Cadillac is slower than the R-Spec by about 150 HP, which is fine since I don't NEED to go fast. The Cadillac is beautiful and honestly looks like a dream. From what I read, the R-Spec is very reliable and fun to drive, but from some random dealership I found on a car app, and has been posted for 22 days, and it looks like it will need tires.. The difference in price is about 3k (11k /8k), with the Cadillac being more expensive. The also Genesis has 133k miles, where as the Cadillac has 114k.

If anyone can help me choose between the two, I would really appreciate it. I'm taking the R-Spec for a test drive and possible inspection on Saturday. There's also a 2015 Durango SXT but I'm not sure about that one.

Please help, or if you have any advice I will gladly take it, thank you!

2015 Cadillac CTS 2.0 vs. 2013 Hyundai Genesis 5.0 R-Spec

I am looking for a new car, preferably one that will last me a while, since my previous car (2005 Acura RL) has severe suspension issues and is too much to repair. I know Japanese cars last the longest, but I can't find a used Lexus, Toyota, Acura, or Mitsubishi that hadn't been in an accident and is within my budget.

With gas prices, I would like something that's comfortable and good on gas, but also reliable. I know the Cadillac is significantly slower than the R-Spec, and slower than my old car, but it's really nice and is better on gas (20/30) than the R-Spec (16/25), so I'm leaning towards that, but I read that the R-Spec is more reliable than the Cadillac.

I initially wanted an SUV but it was hard to find something that hadn't been in an accident, or wasn't a Rogue, and also within my budget. I did find a 2015 Durango SXT, but I'm not sure if I want to go for it.

Either way, which of the two cars would be the best to choose? Any help is appreciated! Thank you!
