Why not for a daily driver?The coupe cts is a beaut - but I wouldn't want it for a daily driver.
If you want a car you can rely on look to a 2018 Cruze.
Very. Limited. Visibility.Why not for a daily driver?
The later engine the better. The 2.0T's pop pistons left and right in 2013-2014 model years. The ATS just has horrid reliability as a whole.A new entry comes in to play.
Looking at a ATS Sedan. A little more practical.
ATS is an absolute joy to drive. Like running a motorized go-cart on a closed track. Just thrilling!A new entry comes in to play.

Pretty much isn't the ATS a glorified Cruze? If so, why would be the back sit area be smaller?ATS is an absolute joy to drive. Like running a motorized go-cart on a closed track. Just thrilling!
But it is smaller than a Cruze on the inside. And the back seat is almost useless.
I recommend one with the 3.6 and eight speed. My only regret is that they don't offer a convertible.
Different (way better for handling) platform, similar size.Pretty much isn't the ATS a glorified Cruze? If so, why would be the back sit area be smaller?
Wholly and completely different platforms and vehicles.Pretty much isn't the ATS a glorified Cruze? If so, why would be the back sit area be smaller?
When I drove about 6 ATS 2.0T AWD versions, they felt like bigger faster more nimble LTZ Cruze. Also want to echo that you don't want the older ones for pistons and CUE radio issues.Pretty much isn't the ATS a glorified Cruze? If so, why would be the back sit area be smaller?
I've bought cars without driving them before. In fact every car I've ever owned I've bought before driving. But it has its risks.Found an ATS, but it's over 800 miles away, so checking it out isn't going to happen.
It's a 2014 CPO that's good until 2020.
Shipping will be needed @$1000, but what are your thoughts about hiring a local mobile mechanic to check it out since it's a CPO?
Is it really necessary?
While I would love a 2016, the pocketbook says no.I've bought cars without driving them before. In fact every car I've ever owned I've bought before driving. But it has its risks.
Personally I would look for a 2016 model. That's when GM really started to get them right. Kind of like the 2014 Cruze.
There's no need to hire a third party mechanic if the car is truly a CPO.
Complaints people had about the 2014 model was chintzy looking dashboard gauges and headlights. People also didn't like CUE - but it's not as bad as people say. Especially if its software was updated in the CPO process.
What engine does it have - and what trim level is it?
Not a fan of AWD myself, but I live three hours north of Syracuse and have snow tires.While I would love a 2016, the pocketbook says no.
It has the 2.0T
