I bought this car when I was 18, 7 years ago. It's been a money pit ever since I got it. Poorly made. Engine seized up 9 months after I got it (is always made sure oil changes were ahead of schedule). Luckily the warranty covered it....cool. It started making a noise in transmission, so I had to replace the flex plate and torque converter. Now my check engine light turned on and I have multiple cylinder misfires. Awesome, had to fix that. Now due to all the rain we've been getting, I'm finding at least 2 leaks and there's water EVERYWHERE! Now I have to drain all the water out and clean all the mold that's growing in my trunk and passenger side. Stay away from this car! You might have the same bad luck like I did.

Bought it used in Dec 2008 with 26000 for a DEAL. 6 speed manual, limited slip diff and luxury package for under 13000! 22 in the city, over 30mpg highway even in the smokey mountains in much lower gears than necessary! The perfect car...1 week before warranty went out took it to dealership in jacksonvilel NC, they said car was in tip top shape, 2 weeks later the water pump seals blew out, water pump seized up & the synchros for 1st and reverse stopped working. GM said sorry, this happens, a cadillac that was 4 years old and had 32000 miles on it that needed over 3000 dollars worth of repairs. but the dealership offered me an extra 50 bucks on trade for my trouble.

I bought my 2004 Cadillac CTS 3.6L black beauty in March 2004. It is loaded with the sports luxury package, DVD navigation, etc. My only complaints are the lack of a locking gas cap and the DVD Navigation system is not 100% reliable in midtown Toronto. Otherwise the car is spectacular. I wouldn't give it up for the world.

My Cadillac CTS V6 with navigation has an MSRP of around $44,000. loaded. Its ride is smooth, inviting, and responsive. The engine has a nice American roar to it when you accelerate through a yellow light. Its exterior leaves nothing behind except for the people staring at it, of course. Its interior with heated lumbar seats is accomidating, welcoming, and deserves your cruisin' time. The Bose sound sytem is excellent. You can't drive this car without the music blaring. The navigation system helps if you stink with maps, or are just lazy like me!. I replaced the wheels and rims for 20". I guess automakers haven'tcaught up yet in the tire department. My new tires were an extra $5,000 out of my pocket. I have not had any problems with the vehicle yet and I hope this will continue.
Everything you want!

The 2005 Cadillac CTS is evrything I wanted in a cat: performance, comfort and reliability at a less price that is lower than its European competition.
