If you think BMW’s quality control is beyond reproach I have a bridge to sell you Sure there are a number of Caddy’s that can be associated with geriatrics. But then there are other Cadillac variants that are undoubtedly drivers cars. BTW: Cadillac has done pretty well in endurance racing as well. Guesss some of those old guys like to drive

Weird....no comments on this one. The GM Alpha 2 platform is much more of a driver's car than the new G8X. But I guess everyone is focused on looks, badge, interior gimmicks and newest electronics. This is what sells today, not how dynamic and involving the car is...
In all fairness, Cadillac needs to focus on quality more and exterior looks are still a step behind. Every brand isn't perfect for one reason or another but for a street car which is what these are, the M cars offer more of what people want. I really like what Cadillac has been doing and I'm very interested in this black wing version but if all else was equal, I'd go M because of exterior looks, interior quality, reliability, resale value, and the M heritage.
