2006 Cadillac SRX 4dr SUV (4.6L 8cyl 5A)
Review
The Cadillac SRX is the first American car I have purchased in 8 years. I traded in an Acura TL (2004) for it. I gained in power/performance, but lost a little in handling. If America's automakers continue down the path Cadillac has paved, they'll be re-gaining some marketshare. If you're looking at the Acura MDX, Mercedes ML, Lexus GX, BMW X5 - you have to try this one too.
Favorite Features
The built-in cell phone and V8 engine.
Suggested Improvements
Take a hint from the Japanese manufacturers - simplify the option packages. Also, this vehicle is very, very, very thirsty - but I knew what I was getting when I chose the V8.

2006 Cadillac SRX 4dr SUV (3.6L 6cyl 5A)
Review
I ordered my '06 SRX in May. It was built at the end of July, got lost four two months and arrived at dealer in October. Mine has the cashmere interior running all the way to instrument panel and top pad / dashboard. The dashboard and instrument panel are a darker cashmere, but this is so much better than black or gray which Cadillac has forced on us over the past 10 yrs. There is no glare on lighter dashboards. Also, lets have some interior colors. This is my wife"s SUV and we both love it. It is very well built and stylish in and out. The infared looks sharp. Only complaint is the wiper stalk on right side of steering colum sticks out too far and is easily hit when your moving hand from center stalk to the steering wheel.
Favorite Features
The smooth powertrain and ride coupled with good styling in and out.
Suggested Improvements
Offer with a sunroof and storage compartment in rear vs. third seat.
Great Ride

Review
I purchased a new "white diamond" SRX. I appreciate the thinner rocker sills, and the power hatch lift. This vehicle has more power and smoothness than I had expected from its 6-cyl. engine. The 5-speed automatic transmission is great. Mine is 6 weeks old and so far I have not had any problems.
Favorite Features
OnStar and XM radio. The OnStar phone is a convienant and safe way to make cell calls, but it is expensive. Also the Ultraview sunroof is nice.
Suggested Improvements
More interior storage, the glove box is useless.

Review
We have a 2006 Cadillac SRX and we are not happy with it. Its rear tail lights are ugly and don't fit with the car. Also, it needs to get better gas mileage. I do like the seats though. This vehicle definitely needs some improvements.

Review
The 2006 Cadillac SRX is awesome! I sold my Escalade a year ago and downsized to GMC Envoy to save money, but I missed the Caddy style and feel. I am 45 years old and this is my mid-life "fun-to-drive SUV." I've got four great kids and they love it too! It has a powerful V8 engine, great handling, and excllent options like the DVD, Navigation, and Big Sky Glass Roof.
Favorite Features
The DVD for the little ones, Navigation system, Big Glass Roof, and heated seats.
Suggested Improvements
1. iPod compatible 2. Better glove compartment design and put a light in the darn thing (small, unlit); 3. Graphics on Navigation system are designed for Grandpa..suggest cleaner/sharper fonts. 4. Use better quality plastics i.e., roll cover over cup holders.

Review
This is my second Cadillac and so far and it is even better than the the frst! I can truly tell that Cadillac has really worked hard to make this car what it is. When I made the hard choice to turn in my CTS to get the SRX I was reluctant, but as soon as I got it I relized I made the right decision. It handled and drove better than my CTS and it is just an overall better vehicle!
Favorite Features
The XM radio, the quality of the materials that were used, and the power lift gate.

Review
I had to have my 2006 Cadillac SRX delivered from California, as the only srx available in the U.S. with the black exterior, black interior, with the trailer hitch, dvd entertainment system, and navigation...with the V8. I've only had it for a month but it's the best. The sport tuned suspension works like a charm along with the magnetic ride control and traction control.
Favorite Features
The washers that come out and spray water on the headlights.
Suggested Improvements

I love this vehicle! I wasn't sure if I would even like it but since I bought it I have taken on a small road trip, filled it up with 7 of my friends and everyone was comfy and happy, it is the best. Like it better every day.
Favorite Features
Ultra View Plus, I love to see the sky.
Suggested Improvements
Just wish gas wasn't so expensive, that is the only reason I gave it a 9 out of 10.

Have had only six weeks, but the experience has been outstanding thus far. I do though believe the satellite readio ought to be standard.
