Not Impressed

The car looks great and the ride is pretty comfortable, but the performance terrible. When on the highway or passing in local traffic I feel like I'm towing a large boat. When passing or accelerating it should have a smooth shift with minimal disruption. It lags terribly and the RPM's will exceed 5K regularly. The gas mileage should be a lot better given there is not much power.

Kind of doggy

Not much pick up in this car. I would think the gas milage would be better with the lack of acceleration. Kind of winds up like my old '79 Datsun.

Great Value

The car looks great, drives great. Some say it is underhorsepowered, but I didn't buy th car to race. It is certainly fast enough to get out of trouble and get on the highway. The interior and exterior has great fit & finish. The only negative comment I have is the seating is a bit firm. Fantastic vehicle for the money!

disappointed

Although I like the vehicle overall, I am very disappointed with excessive amount of road and wind noise. Also, the ride isn't as smooth as I expected. One would think Cadillac could build a quiter, smoother riding vehicle.

Love the interior and the many features

I wasn't sure if I wanted anothe suv or a car since I had a Chrysler Aspen (which I loved) so I drove several cars, an suv and the Cad SRX crossover....it definitely won my heart!! I love it and would highly recommend test driving and then a purchase.

Love this care, I've had a couple of months, hitting 5000 miles already.. drives great. only issue are a few blind spots. But after test driving several other vehicles I am so glad I selected the SRX ! :)

Beautiful car!

Good looks and solid performance. Gas mileage so so but regular eases the pain. Options are pentiful but driver friendly.

I'm a believer

Great vehicle! Drove a Lexus for many years. More value here. I almost leased a 2010 Lexus RX350 with fewer standard features and a higher monthly payment. I also LOVE the comfort of having Onstar.

SRX is not what you think

I am in love with this SUV. Being a previous MDX owner, I was worried that the interior and gadgets would not compare well. Man was I wrong. The NAV is much better (3D, allows you to put icons on the map of your saved locations ? very cool). The backup camera is very smart and give you all the info you need. The front cabin has the same space feel as the MDX or other mid-sized SUVs ? but this is technically a compact, go figure. Great getty up and only using regular fuel is a blessing.
