2006 Cadillac DTS Performance 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)
31 of 34 people found this review helpful
I have had this car for about 18 months and bought it used. It has needed some repairs but for a 10 year old car what do you expect. Other than 12 mpg fuel economy, but being the performance model with a big V-8 and a 4000 pounds and mostly city driving I guess 12 mpg is not too bad I can not really find anything to complain about with this car. I have the performance model and for a 4000 pound car it has great get up and go. Plenty of room in this car and living in PA it was great in the snow with Michelin tires on it. This having been almost 60,000.00 dollars for this car new you would expect nice things from it. I recently looked at a new Toyota Avalon XLE premium and it still cant compare to this Cadillac. I was going to trade in the Cadillac for a brand new car but can't find one reason why I would want to give up this DTS.

2006 Cadillac DTS Luxury I 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)

If your a true car enthusiast you’ll appreciate the DTS for truly what it is, which is the last true “old school” American luxury cruiser of the modern age along with the now also discontinued Lincoln town car. This Cadillac has the NorthStar V8 and boy have I done my research! I knew that owning this vehicle meant staying strictly up to date with maintenance and no not because of the NorthStar engine but because it begs (needs) to be taken care of in order to keep that same awesome reliability mixed with the unique driving feel. That being said, the NorthStar is a powerful smooth engine that is extremely reliable yet very underrated (06-11 model years) and has only one purpose... To deliver a perfect comfortable ride. Those who claim to have had major problems with the DTS (06-11 model years) just didn’t know how to properly maintain the vehicle & that’s just facts. Keyword, research! Don’t take anyone else’s word for it!

2006 Cadillac DTS Luxury III 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)

This is my 7th cadillac. A fine American car. I do question if you guys know what trim level your car is. Most of you are Luxury III, or Performance???? I didn't think they made that many with those trims. Might want to check your trim level again. 1sd is a Luxury III There were only 11,146 of those built. Far fewer Performance were built 1se is the performance package. Anyhow it's a great car. Reliable, fast, and smooth. I've owned the car now for 6 years and have put a little over 50k on it without an issue. Japanese/German cars are over rated. If your an American buy something made here. Keep jobs here. Our cars were built by good Americans in Hamtramck Michigan

The DTS is very comfortable on long drives. I love the remote start so the car can be cooled down before entering. I'm surprised with the good gas milage. It is better than the Acura RL that we traded in. Also, it burns regular fuel not premium. We like the monthly reminders from OnStar. Any questions after purchase were promtly answered.
It's so nice

I bought my 06 DTS as a program car with 17K on it. I've had it for over 3 years and I absolutely love it. My gas mileage on the highway nears 30 MPG. It's very comfortable and drives like a dream. The cooled seats are a blessing in the New Mexico summers. This is my 4th Caddy and I'll buy more.
