If anyone was looking for a cheap wagon that’s roomy, awd, decent power (300hp), check out the Cadillac CTS-4. I had never really considered these until a buddy got one and he really likes it.

Does caddy still make that wagon?

The key is to find the sport model with the Recaro Seats and 3.6L. There was one in Winnipeg last summer but they wanted way too much for it.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Wild, I had no idea they were an option for the normal CTS. Google confirmed.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

It never occurred to me to get a non-V wagon.
I agree, but for someone looking to spend $10-15k on a decent awd wagon, it could do the trick. Much more practical then a V for the winter if a Trackhawk isn’t in the budget.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Of course this isn’t a factor for you, but I was howling laughing as the CTS-4 took me from a dig and a low speed roll multiple times. Anything under 80km and mine simply cannot put any power down through the studded Nokians. He was quite pleased with these results.

I was actually heavily considering a cts-4 wagon, but read nothing but horror stories online... can anyone confirm?This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I mean it’s pretty much ideal for my current lifestyle
there's one on kijiji with "just a bad cat" for $7k.

I honestly don’t know anything about the drivetrain in them so I can’t comment. Issues with mine that would carry over include the rear view camera, and drivers door latch (internal sensor causing radio to stay on after door shut). From what I’ve read, both are relatively common issues.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Do you mind asking him if he’s heard anything regarding the oil passages/ premature timing chain issues?
That was the big one I read
One of my techs picked up one of these. Flew out to Toronto I think he said to pick it up

Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

Not too familiar with Caddy's AWD system, but man if they had included that with the V's, would've been a pretty awesome winter vehicle, akin to a B7 RS4 Avant.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Thanks.
On a related note, I do enjoy how a thread on "mainstream wagons they still make" is now mostly about out of production unicorn enthusiast vehicles. This really IS a car forum.

Since no makes a wagon for NA anymore, this thread would otherwise be dead. I can close it if you like? Start an "old out of production wagon" thread.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Yeah I guess Post #1 pretty much covered it. Subaru and Volvo and then GTFO. I kind of assume VW will bring back the alltrack/sportwagen soon. Or I hope anyway.
