Used 2005 Cadillac SRX Consumer Reviews
A Winner for Cadillac
Just finished the first three months of ownership of my new SRX and am very pleased with the car. After testing both the eight cylinder and the six cylinder engines I opted for the 3.5L six and am not at all disappointed since I find the power is totally adequate. It rides and handles well and combines the best of an SUV and a sedan. On long trips it's as comfortable as my '04 Escalade and not as thirsty. Some have criticized the exhaust note, but I find it pleasing and not at all intrusive. So far everything works as advertised with no problems. Cadillac seems to want to make sure it's owners have an overall excellent ownership experience and I'm certainly very satisfied.
I Love It
I had a 2003 Cadillac Escalade. My new 2005 Cadillac SRX is so fun to drive! It gets pretty darn good gas mileage, but who cares when it is so fun to drive. Getting in takes a little getting used to, because of the wide threshold. I love the Bose sound system. The wood trim is beautiful (I am not so fond of the black dash). Overall, this is one of the best vehicles that I've owned.

Lousy Quality
I bought 2005 SRX for my wife who always wanted a caddy. I also owned 2006 STS at same time. Have had many problems over and over again with with electronics with car. Now timing chain has broke according to my local garage due to low oil pressure. Since buying this caddy I traded in my STS due to poor quality with all the gadets in the car. The SRX is a great example of nice car not built well. Engine makes lots of noise, and uses oil. When you buy a cadillac you expect a car above the rest! I have owned at least five different cars over past few years and will NEVER buy another cadillac again new or used. I'm now waiting on GM to see if they will take any responsiblity for poor quality car
From the Caribbean
After using the SRX for over 1 year, I still feel very pleased with my decision to buy one. The commodity of getting in and out of the SRX separtes it from most SUV's. On many occasions I have received very possitive comments from people of all ages regarding the looks of this vehicle.
2005 Cadillac SRX
My 2005 Cadillac SRX is still a new vehicle, but so far so great! It has a very cool and unique looking exterior design. I have the V6, which seems to have plenty of power for this vehicle. The enormous sunroof is amazing. It has plenty of room inside, but not a huge SUV feel. It also has a very smooth ride on the highway, a terrific sound system (Bose), and rich looking interior. I haven't tested it in much snow yet, I but am confident it's all I need.
