Used 2005 Cadillac SRX Rwd 4dr SUV (4.6L 8cyl 5A) Consumer Reviews
2005 Cadillac SRX
I have only had the vehicle for a week but so far it is the best I've ever owned. Looked at the Lexus and BMW because of the 3rd row seat in them. The comfort and performance is amazing. Will update after a few months.
Love The SRX
I have had the car for a couple of weeks and think it was the best thing we have ever bought. The performance of the vehicle was much better than the lexus, infiniti, and the bmw. The size of the vehicle is perfect. Not too big.... Not too small. I would recommend this car (or pretty much any car in the caddy family) to anyone. We also have an escalade ext which is AWESOME!!!!

Great Drive and Performance...But
Many areas of concern. Navigation/Radio/Dic system is a mess. Poor lighting-impossible to control. No compass. Clock-temperature characters are too small. Needs to be completely redsigned. Can't program so that doors won't lock when in gear. Very dangerous. Front seats are very hard and uncomfortable. My passengers share this view. Can't open back window which is a design flaw. Rear hatch door is heavy. Should be able to "pop" it open. Would like to have true keyless entry like Ford products with combination numbers on exterior of car. Car drives and handles very well. If GM fixes the above issues I will trade for another. If not, I will trade for a Ford product this fall.
SUV or Sports Car?!
We've only had our 2004 AWD V8 SRX for about a month. Not one problem so far. If you want the fastest most fun to drive SUV made than look no farther than the SRX! Average gas mileage so far is 16.7mpg in mixed driving, but we didn't buy the V8 to get good gas mileage. It's simply a sports car disguised as a SUV. ;-) We're planning a 2000 mile shopping trip soon. I think it "should" have plenty of room. The ride is stiffer than the our 2002 Seville was, but it's very well controlled and doesn't wander at all.
brand new
I compared thsi car with a host of SUV's in the same price/feature range (Lexus, BMW, Volvo, Acura, Mercedes). There was no question once I test drove this car. Handling is a dream! Power in the mountains (colorado) is remarkable and equals the turbo charged Saab 9.5se that my wife drives. Excellent comfort/interior for driver and passengers. Learning the computer and all its features is a bit time consuming and somewhat complicated. visability (rear side views from driver seat) is not great.
