2013 Cadillac ATS PREMIUM AWD PACKAGE $18,990

Cadillac has gotten close in the past, but the 2013 Cadillac ATS was the first truly viable American alternative to the small European import sport sedans that have dominated the market for decades. While the ATS is not a BMW, it does offer superior handling through the corners, agile steering, and responsive brakes. The ride is surprisingly smooth, and even the roughest streets are handled with ease.
