"The CTS is a glorious example of what luxury should be. The sharp, angular styling instantly turns heads, and the incredible drivability make it a refined American classic in the making."

"I purchased a 2006 Cadillac CTS with 54,000 miles on it last October. After one month the check engine light came on and after that point it constantly had problems. The gas gauge was faulty and would go from "a half tank" to "a quarter tank" in 10 miles. The car made crazy noises and shook violently in the few days before I got rid of it. I would never advise any one to get one unless you have more than you spent on it to fix it."

"I have recently purchased a 2006 cts v after owning a mercedes e500. The cadilac cts v has aa lot of new features and the power is totally awesome. The car is like driving a muscle car, with cadilac comfort. I am happy to say american cars can compete with foreign car makers and still keep close with american style. Way to go general motors!"

"i went to visit this car because i wanted to see if it was worth my money. I have always been interested in Cadillac's but this one is by far the best for the price thats offered the interior and exterior of the vehicle is unscathed. Under the hood is beautiful and in great condition. I would jump on the offer for this car if i didnt already own one!"

"If you have the choice take the 3.6 with the auto-stick feature. This car is so quiet its scary. Doing 80 mph feels like 40 mph.I have a 2006. Needless to say my next car will be a Cadillac CTS."

"I purchased this car in Dec. 2005 and added the Calif. Luxury package as I am short and needed the 10-way seat, which the dealer removed, so it is impossible to drive except within a few miles of my hilltop home. It came without a lock on the glove compartment, as there is no valet key, so you can't carry ANYTHING you don't want taken in the trunk. This is something I didn't realize when I purchased the car from a slick salesman I have driven Cadillac cars since 1956 and this is the first lemon in the bunch. Being an elderly woman, the agency saw me coming and took full advantage of the fact."
