Best Car I've Owned

2005 Cadillac CTS 4dr Sedan (3.6L 6cyl 6M)

Review

I've owned a 2000 VW New Bettle, and a 1997 Saturn SC2 since graduating college, and my 2005 Cadillac CTS is the best car that I've ever owned, hands down. Its sharp and agile steering with a powerful engine makes this car a winner. I get lots of stares and appreciative comments on looks.

Favorite Features

Smooth and powerful 3.6L V6, sharp 6 speed tranny, driver oriented radio and information center, nothing else like it on the road styling, and best seats in the business.

Suggested Improvements

Cup holders need to be repositioned for manual transmission driving; improve bland 16" wheels-start at 17" and improve design.

Best Sedan on the Market

Review

This was a long process of comparing price ranges and ameneties, and Cadillac was the clear winner. I have the Sport & Luxury packages and for the money, could not be happier. If you like manual shifters, this is the smoothest in low to high speeds and gives punch when needed. Great car.

Favorite Features

Body Style, luxury and power.

I'm a car buff who has raced cars and motorcycles, and have owned Mercedes, Jag, and Volvo. This CTS, with the Luxury Sport package, outclasses any European or Japanese car within range. The car is one more reason to buy American.

Favorite Features

Sharp and unique Americian styling, performance, comfort.

Review

2005 CTS with the perks will cost ya around 40000 but the car will exceed all the you have heard about. The 255 hp can push the car up to 130 mph not bad. Handling with the sport package is very good. The decor is not as refined as its german buds but the room you get inside the cab is great and more than makes up the difference. its my fist GM car in yrs

Favorite Features

the car is very complete

Suggested Improvements

put a light in the glove box its a 40000 car for heavens sake

Review

WOW! I love the styling, comfort and performance of the 2005 Cadillac CTS. I have the 3.6L engine with the manual transmission and no other options. This car's MSRP was $32,545 and I received $7,750 in incentives from General Motors. The manual feels faster than the auto and is much more fun to drive.

Favorite Features

Performance and comfort. Build qualilty is great-no problems.

Suggested Improvements

Nothing major, other than the need to get rid of the foot pedal parking brake.

The 2005 Cadillac CTS is One Incredible Ride

Review

This car is incredible. It surely can't compare to the other other leading cars like BMWs or Mercedes-Benzs, but the fact that it is an American car lets me know that it is totally reliable. It has excellent acceleraltion, compared to the BMW 330i and in my opinion it is way more stylish than the Mercedes-Benz E-Class. I almost purchased an E-Class just because of the emblem, but driving away with the Cadillac left me with no regrets.

Favorite Features

I love everything about this car. The interior is superior to those of other leading luxury cars, like the Mercedes-Benz E-Class or the BMW 5-Series.

Suggested Improvements

none.

Review

Have owned 05 CTSw/ auto & PDX Sport Package for 5 weeks - MSRP 35640 - dealer price 31475. No serious complaints - fun to drive - actually does get the advertised 27mpg on highway - many unsolicited compliments on truly different and bold look - OnStar phone clear as can be, seats very comfortable.

Favorite Features

Bold design - does not look like competitive vehicles and offers more interior room. Acceleration , braking and steering very responsive. Steering wheel controls very easy to adapt to - especially good are the steering wheel buttons you program yourself as to their functions.

Suggested Improvements

Storage areas, glove box and trunk could be a touch bigger. Radio controls take a bit of effort to figure out but accompanying CD is helpful.
