Shopping a Used 2010 Cadillac CTS vs. 2010 BMW 328i How do you compare a German luxury car manufacturer to an American icon of luxury and status? The quality of both cars is equal, yet the 2010 Cadillac CTS will give you more interior and cargo room, a smoother ride, and is designed to compete with the BMW for the younger, crowd looking for a sportier ride. The BMW is known for a stiffer ride, aggressive acceleration and a shorter wheelbase, making the car lighter and quicker by 500 lbs. Fuel economy is going to be better on the Cadillac as it has a higher horsepower but higher torque curve where the BMW has a lower HP which makes the power band in the torque always in the go to gear. Simply put, expect to be fast from stop light to stop light in the BMW, but more powerful on your road trips touring the scenic highways. The cost of maintaining a BMW is more costly as the parts are from Germany, and so the insurance and repairs will be more expensive. There are few 2010 Cadillac CTS or 2010 BMW 328i models to have broken the 100k mile mark, yet, however, I have seen previous model year BMW 328i and Cadillac CTS vehicles get into the 120,000 mile category with basic service and care expenses. As such, you can finance both vehicles (2010 used) for six years or 72 months, and get great auto loan rates right now.*
