Have a 2013 GS 350 , it has been builit proof. Nothing breaks, low maintenance and a fantastic quality interior. This is my next Lexus for sure! Atomic silver with the red interior is stunning !

I own a CTS v but I did drive the GS f... and wow I have to give their interior a hands down win. feels exotic and special. and not a bad sounding exhaust stock.

i love them both, but the CTS-V simply out classes with more performance, a more luxurious interior, more features, and a slightly more cohesive design, of course anyone who chooses a GSF wont be disappointed with a stellar N/A V8, best in class reliability, and an over all very unique choice in this segment. love them both.

Hands down one of my favorite videos you have done. I would love to see more comparison videos like this. I really like both cars but it's something about that Caddy that I just love!!! Keep up the great content sir!!!

Your intro songs are always phenomoninal! Never miss a beat

Love your videos!!! Thank you for your detailed comparisons!

Lets take this moment to acknowledge that Lexus is the ONLY Japanese luxury auto maker to take on the high performance brands and actually make their own high performance division of cars. Good job Lexus. This is also the first generation GSF. I believe that CTS-V is the third generation model. So the Lexus F brand is a upcoming player that started in 2008, not better then the established stars but damn good for a starter up and its that new player you should not sleep on. That being said I love the fact the Caddy has almost 700hp but I have a feeling your gonna see more CTS-V crashed then the GSF. Because of its more usable power the GSF is the more of a drivers car. You cant open up CTS-V like you can the GSF. Love both of these cars tho. I do like the interior of the Lexus more over the caddi interior. The Lexus does give you a better value when it comes to options. Theres almost nothing optional on Lexus F cars. Lexus will no doubt be dependable and fun at the same time your not giving up dependability to go fast. I like the front end of the CTS-V but beside the front end I think the GSF looks better in every other way. Both cars are awesome give me anyone ! My best thing about the both of them? THEY ARENT GERMAN.

Glad to hear you can equally appreciate the Cadillac for what it is, the Lexus gave it a hell of a fight though and we weren't kidding when we said we liked many aspects of the GS F over the CTS-V. You honestly can't go wrong with either car, each of them will speak to a certain driver in their own way. The GS F certainly gets us excited for the next generation model, hopefully Lexus will deliver the power in the form of a boosted V8 engine in the upcoming LC F. Cheers to both of these not being German :)

You call it a "drivers" car but the CTS-V outpaces it in ever single aspect including handling, power, acceleration, and driver engagement. The BMW is a MUCH better drivers car even still and the AMG is faster with a way nicer interior. In what tangible way could you sell this car to someone in the market for a performance luxury car in this class who isn't already set on buying a Lexus? Serious question, I would like to hear your sales pitch based on tangible information not just your opinion.

It's been super reliable so far as expected & has a fantastic ride & handling balance. I would've really considered the Cadillac if it had the same long term reliability as a Lexus.

I love the CTS-V!. You should make a comparison video to the 2017 Mercedes E63 s AMG. I'm torn between the two..

Great video, Sofyan! You did a great job comparing both vehicles! The Cadillac seems a little more difficult to enjoy as a daily driver as oppose to the Lexus, in my opinion, due to the lower and louder nature of the vehicle. The Cadillac CTS-V's exterior styling personally looks more aggressive and bold as oppose to the GS-F. When it comes to the interior's I like the bright and what seems to be more easy to use environment of the Lexus, but the overall more techy and different look of the interior of the Cadillac. I do have to admit though, the Cadillacs interior seems to have to many motorized and technology based parts, which in the long run can end up costing a lot more in repairs. Both cars also sound amazing, but the Cadillac just sounds a ton better at a stand still. While, when you where driving I actually found myself preferring the acoustics of the Lexus' very crisp sounding shifts and if you will more constant and linear sound! All in all, you cannot go wrong with either of these vehicles, but personally I would have to pick the Cadillac for a weekend fun car and the Lexus for more of an everyday car. I can totally tell you love what you do for a living. From one good car reviewer (me) to one great car reviewer (you), keep up the amazing work! -DriveAndBeDriven "The Quest To Record The Best!"

Nice review. Love your channel

Idk where you get that techno music from in the beginning of the video but I love it 👌🏽

Can you do a review on the 2017 Chevrolet ss? I heard its going to be discontinued after 2017 and now I am seriously contemplating getting it. It would be nice if you could do a review on the car. Thanks in advance!

I love the Lexus! Its one car that I notice and always take a moment to look over whenever I see it out. Never got into Cadillac's though.

Really good review! I like the comparos.

I have a 2011 CTS-V I just put up for sale because I want a 2016 or later CTS-V. I love them. Thanks for the video!

I love both of them but for some reason the Lexus keeps giving me chills because of that V8. Sounds sooo beautiful! The Cadillac does sound good no doubt but that V8 in that Lexus, I really don't know why. I can literally forget about the power (maybe) because of that sound. Not only that but like what he said, it's easier to rev it up than the Cadillac sadly. If the Cadillac was easier to control while you're trying to rev it up then it would be harder for me to choose.

Cadillac CTS-V for me. ;)

Dude, I am a mechanic and you definitely are really outstanding at speaking. Great video!

I much rather have the gs f lol, reliability, looks, residual value, n/a v8 noise, rides more comfortably. You also have to consider, the GS F competes more with the 550i, e550, S6 and CTS V Sport in terms of performance. Quite a niche product but it's a smart move by Lexus.

Exactly my thoughts. The GS-F is horribly overpriced when it is much fairer to compare it to the Mercedes E550 and BMW 550i which are in the $60K range. Lexus really should've just called it the GS500 and given an F badge to a more worthy one. Same with RC-F. But I will say is one huge advantage the GS-F does have over the 550i and E550 is the handling and suspension especially since the GS-F does have torque vectoring differential. The 550i and E550 do not get the AMG/M treatment and the GS-F is definitely better than those. It's a tweener. It's too good to compete with the 550i and E550 but too slow to compete with the M5/E63/CTS-V

@@usernamealreadytaken770 The E550 makes 429hp so under that of the Lex and the BMW seems like good value until you add features. The Lex offers an option that is a gap in the Merc line up while BMW seems to do a good job giving a ton of options. You are right about it being slower than the competition in objective tests that the reviewers do but in the real world it all events out. If you're out anywhere other than a track, pretty much anything in the F line up will put its power down better and actually have useable performance. Having gone up against these cars, even in a track setting, maintaining consistency is not something that can be done with those cars. They make so much power that they shred their tires in no time. Most people will not continue to beat on the cars for consecutive laps. Overall it comes down to the driver. Personally I would just enjoy the experience and daily drive-ability. But that's just me.

Not a fan of the design direction Lexus is going these days, which is a shame as they're good at retaining value and being dependable. The looks are far too 'loud'. Lexus had a calm and quiet elegance about them that I appreciated a lot. most of their previous models aged quite well for that very reason. But I fear these designs will age badly as is the case with most style trends.

The V all day !

What part of NY is this? looks really nice up there

I've watched a ton of your reviews and have often wondered....have you ever been stopped by the police while nailing these hot rods? Just curious. Oh, btw, I own a GS350 F Sport. Great car! Drooling over the F though. The CTS V scares me.

pretty cool comparison Soyfan. For 25k less and less time spent at the dealership I'd have to go with the lexus. I also don't have enough self control to not go to jail for driving the caddy like a maniac.

@@eurosonly read his and my comment again. He said 25k difference, that's what I was asking about. Also, this caddy has an Lt1 ls engine in it. It's one of the most reliable engines ever made.

I like them both the CTS-V is a beast, it sound so mean with those gorgeous looks. The GSF I love the red interior and the sound when it's being push throw the speakers, but the V will age better than the GSF!

​@T Genesis no it isn't. Lexus V6 & V8 engines are as reliable as anything made anywhere today.

The Lexus for overall package. It has performance,prestige and reliability. CTS V is a money pit in the long run.

Was this video shot in the Lehigh Valley?

CTS-V looks super badass but I'd still pick the GS F between the two.

Buy the Cadillac for "bragging rights" and to enjoy all that performance when you get on a track. But, how many owners of such luxury cars actually take their cars to the track and how many times of the year do they do so? Buy the Lexus for accessible everyday performance and to listen to the Cadillac owner's "bragging rights" while you're giving him a lift to work...because his car broke down.

Technically the Cadillac owner would probably just use his dealer loaner ATS to get to work whenever his CTS-V is in the shop ;)

Hallo from Germany. At first sorry for my poor english. Please try to understand me. Really good video but you comparing apples with pairs. (From my hometown it takes half an hour to enter the Autobahn). The Lexus is a sportive Limousine ..........The CTS-V is a BEAST. I drove the car on the A9 from Berlin to Leipzig and the road was nearly empty. The display shows me 328 km/h (204 M/h). The handling of the car was brilliant, nearly perfect. But there are two sides of the medal. Fuel consumption........ In Germany cost "Super Plus" 1,50 Euro/Liter (7 US-Dollar / Gallon) Any Questions?? :-))))

You can't go wrong with both, but I'd prefer the Lexus~~ You can't find many N/A V8 engines anymore, and Lexus has an amazing one with their 5.0L V8. Also I prefer the interior of the Lexus, because I love user friendly cars, and the Lexus definitely delivers that. The tech is definitely not as hard to use, while Cadillac's CUE in this car is just finicky.

I'd take the gsf mainly for reliability and resale value.

If he has over $80k to spend for the GS F, he could buy about 4 Nissan Versas and then renovate his kitchen. Not even in the ballpark of either the Caddy or the Lexus. I know you're exaggerating with this Versa example, but it's possible to buy a fun/performance/luxury car that holds value well.

ARentz07 yea, after doing more research I found the cts's V models hold their value pretty well. I love the Caddy, it's an elegant beast. But my personal preference sways more towards the Lexus.

Yeah, hope my comment wasn't unclear - I was just saying a Versa has no place in this conversation. But of course I would totally grab the GS F if it came down to it.

I'd go Lexus between these two. The 6 series Gran Coupe is one of the best looking cars ever made though so I'd go with a 650i Gran Coupe over both of these if I didn't care as much about reliability.

People, don't forget the v handles like its on rails! Not just a straight line car by far!!!

I have a cadillac cts-v and its a great car. I dont know why he said that the caddy does not have adaptavie cruise control in which it does it also has automatic braking and automatic self parking. It also has 4 different driving and dash screen contols and looks when you driving. When in sports mode it change to the rpm mode as well. He didnt mention as well that it has Head Up display screen while you driving and for the interior they do offer different colors i have a burgany and black int.
