Auto loans: green 2016 Cadillac CTS Performance in Farmbrook

Thinking of buying the 2016 Cadillac CTS Performance?

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2016 Cadillac CTS Performance for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Buying the 2016 Cadillac CTS Performance is a big decision; here is the information we have.

A buyer's checks

In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.

The figures, translated

It is powered by the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, with rear-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

Its combined rating is 9.6 L/100 km, which means roughly 29 litres for 300 km. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $16.80 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,300 a year for 15,000 miles.

Room inside

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. With a length of 5.02 m, it counts as on the long side. Check the size of a tight parking spot. Luggage space is rated at 368 litres: about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Best uses

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.

Try before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Drive the CTS on your commute before you commit to it. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.

The cost of driving it

At our price setting, 100 km costs about $16.80 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $168 at our price setting. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.

Narrowing it down

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
