Tell us the exact 2026 Cadillac Optiq you want, and we ask every Cadillac dealer with one in stock near you for a written, itemized out the door price. Then we send the best number back to the others and make them beat it. You see every quote side by side and buy directly from the dealer you pick.
What to decide before dealers bid
The tighter your spec, the cleaner the bids. Pick the trim, the colors you'd accept, any packages you can't live without, and how far you'd travel or ship from. The Optiq is a SUV offered with EV power, so make the powertrain choice up front; it changes which cars on dealer lots qualify.
What each Cadillac dealer is asked for
One number in writing: the out the door price, broken into selling price, any dealer add-ons, doc fee, tax, and title and registration. That's what makes quotes comparable. A low selling price can hide paint protection, nitrogen, VIN etching or a market adjustment, which is why we read every line. Our add-on guide explains which ones you can refuse.
Pickup or delivery
A Optiq a few hours away can beat one down the street even after you add the cost of getting it home. We compare quotes by the total to your driveway, including an estimate for pickup or delivery, so a cheaper car far away and a nearby one are weighed fairly. Read buying a car out of state if the best quote isn't local.
What it costs
$499 total. $99 to start, refunded if we don't beat the best written quote you already have, and $400 only after the dealer's buyer's order matches the price you picked. Pricing and guarantee.
