there's no physical button to press for AC. Or you can go through multiple screens to adjust it. The CTS has buttons which only appear on the screen if you increase/decrease the volume of air flow. I would physical buttons which allow you to adjust direction where the air flows in the ventilation system (to feet, to windshield, etc.). It's sleek and tight and very well put together.
But other than that, and a very small Onstar button panel on the ceiling, the rest of the interior is BEAUTIFUL. I'm not in love with the design of the steering wheel - could be a little simpler and more elegant looking. (The heated steering wheel does heat up quick and hot, however). As someone living in the Midwest I'd prefer a hotter and quicker seat heater. The seat heaters on my German cars would burn your tail if you left them on too high / too long. The CTS heat seater heats up a little bit slowly and doesn't get the seat very hot, even at max temperature. When Detroit makes a killer car, you can feel great about buying it for a lot of reasons, including where it's made. And as someone who cares about our country and our workers, that's the ultimate status symbol. On the inside of the driver's door is a round sticker which you won't find on any BMW, Audi, Lexus, or Mercedes sedan - that sticker says "Made in Michigan, USA". I was recently inside a BMW M5 - which cost over $100k - and the BMW didn't have anything nicer in terms of interior materials. The materials used in the car, the leathers and wood trim, etc., are all top notch. It's a million times easier to use than the old "I-Drive" systems on the BMW. Some people complain about the CUE entertainment system, but I actually find it pretty simple to use.

On the highway, the open road, it handles better than a 5 series BMW.
Love the exterior design and (almost all) of the interior. Yet the doors close with a very satisfying "thud," same as you find on the German cars.
it's an absolute racehorse, and a lean and agile one. It shows up especially in the handling of the CTS. Comparing the aluminum body of this car (including doors and … trunk) to a BMW 5-series steel body, you realize how much fat and bloat you're carrying around with the BMW. It manages the amazing trick of feeling substantial while also being light and agile. For the past 15 years I drove only German cars, BMW and Volkswagen. I bought my all-wheel drive CTS last year (2015) - it was a 2014 model year that was still on the lot, so very happy with the deal.
