"I own a 2008 Cadillac CTS fully loaded with all wheel drive. It does have a couple downsides but nothing that would keep me from purchasing this car again. Road and wind noise is a big one. With the radio off and fans on low you can hear the road and wind easily. Another is a touch all wheel drive system when you are taking a sharp turn and trying to accelerate. While you're stung it's not bad but when you are parking and have the steering wheel cranked then it can be touchy. Everything else in the car is amazing. From cooled seats to the the auto windshield wipers and the headlight washers it is an amazing vehicle. It has wowed every person that has been in it. Good powertrain and great power can pass people with ease. It is an axing vehicle. Perfect mix between sports car and luxury car. 5 out of 5."

"I got a 2008 Cadillac CTS in May 2011. I love this car. It was not a car that I reseached, but once I got into the car I loved it. I has great style, comfort and preformance. I did try not to like thw car when the sale person said let go for a ride. I found the car had all that i needed in a car. Everyone I know tell me that my car is beatuiful. I really love the lights on the car and is one of the reasons I picked this car. I got the "big" V6 and it had the performance package. Great power and performance is good all on regular gas"

"I was shopping for something more economical to replace my Durango. I also wanted something with a few more toys than I already had. I just happened to run across this Cadillac CTS4 at a local dealership and it turned out to be a nice ride. Since this is a sport model the ride and comfort is not you would typically expect from a Cadillac. It is a bit bumpy and stiff. It is a little tight on the corners but the V6 engin does have giddy-up. However, when driving at higher speeds you do feel it. The outside styling is really nice. The interior looks nice but does have some practicality issues. It could really use some more storage compartments. Leg room is a bit snug. If you have big feet like me, you will run in to the bottom of the dash board with your toes when moving from gas to brake. My CTS4 did come with some nice accessories. However, it was not blutooth capable and I noticed that back-up warning sensors run all the time in reverse and cannot be turned off. There was supposed to be a blinking light in the back , but on my car it disn't exists. The stereo system is nice but the Bose Speaker system is a bit disappointing. There is just not enough bass. The seats are very confertable. Overall, I am very pleased with my choice. In the past I have had very poor experiences with GM products and would have never considered a Cadillac. So far, I have been very please with my CTS4"

"Only complaint I have with the 2008 model is that the bluetooth capabilities only exist, if you utilize ONSTAR. If you do not have an ONSTAR account, then you are not able to utilize your bluetooth. I've tried to update the bluetooth or ONSTAR system, but I'm being told that the dealers can not help, nor Cadillac. Other than this the vehicle is ok. Nice ride."

"Absolutely fabulous car. There are so many extras on this car I would have never expected. It has rain sensing windshield wipers, automatic lights, ipod integration. There are so many great features, I love the sleek dash and the speedometer has the option of having it show digitally on the screen where the specs show up. It rides like a dream the seats are so comfortable and the back seat is surprisingly roomy. The trunk is huge and will fit everything you need. I'm in love with this car a huge leap up from my Scion TC. I am a young girl that drives this car I would pick this over a BMW or Mercedes."

"I bought the car with 23K miles and have only added about 1000. I love the way it looks and handles. Performance and fuel mileage are quite adequate with the base 3.6. I really like the performance suspension and 18" wheels and I love the six speed automatic.. I added the spare tire for security. I probably won't stay with the Run-Flat tires when it comes time to replace. The driver's seat is a little too firm. It had a rattle in the shifter and one in the rear deck but they were resolved. I just received a recall to recalibrate the oil life sensor due to timing chain wear, but I don't let it tell me when to change oil, I like the 3000 mile intervals. Would I recommend this car to a friend, Absolutely!"
