Love my Caddy !

2005 Cadillac DeVille DHS 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)

Review

This is my fourth Cadillac, all bought used, and this is just about the best one. I got it with 16,000 miles on it, and it drives and looks like the day it rolled off the showroom floor. The price was great ($ 18,500 on a car that stickered for approx $57k 3 years ago), partially due to it not being the most recent body style, but it has every option with the exception of navigation. American cars have really come a long way, and I hope that more people will start to realize it and not choose foreign solely because of the prestige factor.

Favorite Features

Well-controlled ride and comfort, heated/cooled seats, fuel economy (that's right, 28 MPG on the highway with a V-8!), beautiful White Lightning paint, build quality.

Suggested Improvements

none

2005 CADILLAC REVIEW

2005 Cadillac DeVille 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)

Review

This is my 5th Cadillac. I love the cars. They are great, reliable and attractive. I will never forget sitting in my first cadillac for the first time. I was in heaven. The seats were so comfortable. My currect caddy is a 2005 cadillac sedan deville. The seats are so uncomfortable I can hardly drive it for long periods of time. My lease is up in December and I want another cadillac but not if the seats are as hard as my 2005. They should make them like they did in 1992.

Favorite Features

style, reliability, cloth top

Suggested Improvements

Please make the front seats softer so I can buy another Cadillac

2005 Cadillac DeVille DTS 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)

Review

This is my 6th Cadillac and 2nd DTS. It is the best one yet. All the bugs have been worked out in this model and I am almost afraid to get the new design. I have 46,000 miles on this and it rides like a new one.

Favorite Features

Heated steering wheel, massaging seats and heated and cooled seats. The paint color is White Lightening and shines day or night.

Suggested Improvements

The Navigation system could be improved upon. No new updated discs available. Tells you to refer to the map when starting and does not say right or left if you are starting at an intersection.

2005 Cadillac DeVille DHS 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)

Review

Nice car for the price. It is a large sedan and handles well for that category. Nice ride and features. Surprised that stabilitrak is not standard on the so called DHS. Plastic pieces seem rather cheaply manufactured. But overall still very much like this vehicle and would certainly buy again.

Favorite Features

Northstar V8, memory seats and mirrors

Suggested Improvements

Better quality manufacturing and more standard features

First DeVille

2005 Cadillac DeVille 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)

Review

This is our first Cadillac. We purchased it as a certified pre-owned car at a reasonable price. The warranty and the car have more than exceeded our expectations.

Favorite Features

We love the comfort, performance and XM radio. The ride is outstanding and the car is exceptionally quiet.

Suggested Improvements

Heated seats should be standarded equipment in a car like this.
