Does he run a tune or anything? Wondering if that will kill the clutch. I know that it is some kind of Derivative (stronger or weaker idk) of the LNF from the Cobalt SS days. And tunes + couple bolt ons transformed the car.

Cadillacs have always had **** resale. Just take a look at how cheap a 2007 DTS is. Those things were pricey as **** new. Like 50k to 8k and these ******* are full of carpathian leather and rich mahogany. That said I have looked at a used AWD ATS for the wife off and on myself.

Damn, i didnt know these dropped in price that much either.... I had a cobalt SS turbo back in the day as well.. this is pretty much everything I wish that car was.. $100 for a tune (if you have HPTuners) gives you another 90whp..

I'm starting to like this thread, I never even looked at the caddy 2.0 Turbo, and now having researched them I still don't like them/am not impressed but realized that there are a lot of cars out there that are interesting/improving that I might potentially consider in the future.
I'm actually kinda sorta in the same situation as OP, will need a 4 door / 5 seater in the not so distant future.

We didn't sell that many but I haven't seen any come back in for major repairs. Only things I can really think of at the moment is that I've seen some issues with haptic seat motors (seat vibrates if the parking sensors or lane detection go off) and usual gm radio issues.

I purchased a 1991 318is this way, and my old 2008 V8 Limited 4Runner.
In the case of the 4Runner it was necessity. I specifically wanted an 06-09 4WD V8 4Runner Limited WITHOUT the air suspension. During the time I was looking to buy there were only around 30 for sale in the entire country.
