Does the Cadillac DTS have a manual transmission?

What kind of transmission is in the Cadillac DTS? I’m hoping I can get one with manual transmission because that’s my preferred way to drive.

The
Cadillac DTS
is equipped with an automatic transmission, but some stick-shift lovers have replaced the original transmission with a manual one in the past. If you really want a manual DTS, you’ll need to look for one of these modified transmission types.
However, you should be careful when buying modified cars, since they are more likely to have issues than newer vehicles. Make sure to test drive any cars you consider and ask questions about the modification process.
Otherwise, you might consider a different vehicle that already has a manual transmission. Cadillac makes a couple of models with a manual transmission, like the Cadillac CT4-V V-Series Blackwing, so you’ll have some options at your disposal.
If you do decide to purchase a DTS, you’ll want a good
car insurance
policy to back up your new car. Check out the
