I’m afraid it’s totaled

Hit a deer going 80 not even a month after I bought this beauty. Dream car is toast I think. Even if it gets all fixed I’m scared it won’t ever run right. Any of you had almost the entire front end rebuilt with no issues?

That should buff right out.

Make burgers with the deer meat.

Honestly, if the strut towers are fine, and most of the front end steel is in good shape, it looks like it can be repaired. I'm truly understanding of your frustration with the car still being new but, I think it's repairable to good as new condition.

Ouch. I think it could be fixed and if it goes that route, really research the shop doing it.
Did you buy it new or used? Id say repair cost could land in the mids 20s, not enough to hit 60% value to get totalled. However if airbags activated(more than just steering wheel) that could change things.

I have a rebuild project in the works of a '14 CTS v-sport that needs basically all body work fenders forward and all mechanical in front of the engine. Caddys have a lot of parts that can be unbolted/replaced upfront.

It looks like most of the damage went up and over the frame rails. It looks worse than it really is. A good shop can fix it . If the airbags popped, the insurance companies have a tendency to just total it and sell it at Copart at auction. They don't want to deal with supplemental recalls for issues that may pop up. I've seen much worse that has been fixed. Hopefully you have good insurance and a great body shop.

Hopefully, nothing got ingested into the turbos.
