Great Ride
I have never really been a Cadillac man before. I have always liked Ford over GM, but after test driving the SRX and Volvo XC90, there was only one choice. The SRX has a better fell to it. You can take it through corners and it will not scream at you, it asks for more.
2009 Cadillac SRX .... last of the 1st generation!
If you are looking for comfortable, mid-sized+ SUV, that typically has had good care and prior ownership, I recommend the Cadillac SRX's of 2008-2009. Handling is very good, comfort is excellent, gas mileage is OK. I have a 2008 and a 2009 model. No issues with either. Cadillac announced a follow on (the XT6) last year. In 2-3 years I will probably replace the 2008 SRX with a 2-3 year old XT6. I STILL have and use 2 SRX's (2008 and 2009) with 155,000 and 95.000 miles respectively. In 2023 I will need to buy new tires for the 2008 - else, all is good. To update in 2023, I still have both cars - 165,000 miles on the 2008 and 105,000 miles on my 2009. Both cars now have new tires and little issues ..... so far.

Sleek, Spacious, SRX
My vehicle is a 2009 Cadillac SRX. It has everything you could think of. Navigation, moonroof, everything. It comes with an optional sport package, a very wise investment. It can come with a chrome mesh grille with special spoilers all over.
Excellent car
Great car. The SRX drives very sporty, handles people and things well, and tows small trailer and boats nicely. Most comfortable car I have driven. Beats the imports hands down.
Great Ride
Comfortable good looking car. SUV BODY type Cadillac is bringing back in 2O17 because of customer demand.

Awesome and Rare Sport Edition
I just read on a Cadillac forum there was just over 500 made of the specific SRX I'm driving. I have the 2009 SRX V8 AWD Sport Package which is loaded with every option and has the 20" rims. It is also Black Cherry which is harder to find. Initially I was looking at an Escalade EXT but ended up with the SRX which I love. It handles great, looks good and is pretty comfortable. Everyone already knows the gas mileage sucks so if that is an issue this ride isn't for you. I know repair cost are not going to be cheap either, pretty ridiculous price for something as simple as a headlight. Overall I'm happy but may step up to an EXT next just for more space.

The 2009 Cadillac RFYL (Run For Your Life)
The next best thing up from the Cadillac SRX is to buy a 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse and drive it off a cliff. This car is crap. Costs way too much for way too little. I’ve spent more in repairs than I have on the car. You can find mine at the bottom of the Atlantic.

As if a car's brake lines should rot due to salt?
Lost brake pressure while driving and averted a bad accident. Dealer in Florida said that the high-pressure brake line had deteriorated ("due to salt, do you drive that car up North?") . Said it was normal for cars driven in salt. I said that our Lexus, Toyotas, Subarus, and other cars, even older and "permanently up North" didn't have these problems after 8 years... Even worse was that they'd have to remove the engine, and charge " ... at least $2500" to fix it... Very frustrating and disappointing. I decided NOT to have it fixed and to get rid of the car that day.

Just what I wanted
I live in UK and have always loved US cars and bitterly regretted selling my last one in the 1980's. I wanted a vehicle that had the driver legroom and headroom I need (6'5" with disability in knees), with power everything fully loaded, the ability to pack 3 suitcases for my frequent trips to Heathrow to go to US, I also wanted RHD as I found LHD very difficult on narrow Surrey streets. I Prefer GM designs to Ford or Mopar and the Cadillac Main agent is 15 miles away. Finally I wanted a low mileage vehicle with a V8 as these will soon be impossible to buy in UK. This delivered everything I wanted. Need to do a few little bodywork jobs and then keep it valeted. It is so quiet and is almost idling at 70 mph on the highway. Fantastic.
