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

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.

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.

Extras, Good and Bad

The 2005 Cadillac SRX is a lovely car and lots of fun to drive. Do not, however, get the third seat unless you regularly transport children. it is not good for adults, and the alternate, lots of nifty little hampers, is very welcome. Cadillac will practically give you the car if you don't want the sun roof, so think that over. (It's awesome, however, for those that like sun roofs.) After six months, I may have used the navigation system three times, all in the first two weeks. For us, OnStar is a must, and we actually used it in an emergency.
