Over the last few years, Cadillac has been drastically trying to redefine its brand image from the old stodgy ferry of retirees in Boca to a legitimate competitor to the big German luxury players. The first real step was the CTS sedan. It was sized to compete with a BMW 5 Series, but at a bargain price. After years of success with the CTS, Cadillac decided it was time to attack the biggest badge in the business, the BMW 3 Series. The new compact sports sedan wore the name ATS, and it was good. It has been one year since the ATS sedan arrived, and Cadillac has now graced the world with a sleek two-door coupe to tackle the BMW 4 Series.
I love the Bimmer, but I wanted to see if America could really hang with the Germans. Fast-forward to last week, when a beautiful ATS Coupe rolled into my drive for a full week of testing. My model had the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine that makes it very competitive with a 428i. BMW would show no mercy on the road, so neither did I. Several hundred miles, many gallons of gasoline and one mostly ruined pair of tires later, I had decided which I thought was best. Read on to learn my decision.
