2008 Cadillac SRX V6 4dr SUV (3.6L 6cyl 5A)
Review
I love how this SRX handles and rides. I test drove the Lincoln MKX which did not compare to the ride of the Cadillac SRX. I have 6500 miles and drive six (6) hours to my cottage in Michigan. It is a treat to drive that distance now. The interior is gorgeous and everyone always compliments the vehicle's overall appearance. Great job Cadillac. The Bose sound system is like nothing I have ever experienced. I cannot wait for winter to see how it performs with the AWD feature. It is really a fun car to drive. My wife loves the SRX and especially the black exterior I chose.
Favorite Features
Bose sound system. Automatic (1 and 2 position)adjustable seats. Acceleration. Terrific ride and comfort. Interior is 5 star.
Suggested Improvements
Coffee cup holders easier to access.

Review
This is my second srx. Bought first in 2004 when it first appeared. Loved that one. But the 2008. Is much nice. Nicer interior, better ride, love the look.
Favorite Features
I love the sunroof and the bose system the look of the dash, the clock, just about every feature.
Suggested Improvements
The only thing I would change is the chrome around the heaters. Reflects in the outside mirrors.

Review
Very spacious vehicle, especially when children are involved. The second row is comfortable and you can comfortably put kids in the back without too much of a hassle. The back compartment also has plenty of storage space especially for long road trips. If you have a bit more money to spend, this suv is a enjoyable lease and purchase.

Review
I have always been loyal to GM. This time, I purchased instead of leasing so I drove everything, BMW, Volvo, Maxda, Acura and settled on the SRX. I couldn't be happier, the ride is beautiful, the inside "top notch" not like the Enclave which was my first choice after I traded the Buick Rendezvous. Rear seat leg room better than any car I test drove. I am 6 feet tall and the vehicle is very, very comfortable all the way around. The extra seating in the cargo is useless to me so those will always stay down.
Favorite Features
The vehicle is very comfortable, handles well, it has AWD so big difference from the STS which he drove for 3 years and I sometimes drove but did not like. (he is now in the DTS)
Suggested Improvements
Eliminate the chrome air vents, make them black, they reflect in both outside mirrors. Aside from that, to all of you who have negative comments about gas mileage buy a smaller car.

Review
This car has it all. It handles like a sports sedan and runs smoothly with plenty of power. As far as mileage is concerned it meets the mfg sticker - about 17 around town and 24 on the road . We have had no problems in the first year and plan to keep it for a long time . Love the way it handles on the road - like a high speed touring sedan.

2008 Cadillac SRX V8 4dr SUV (4.6L 8cyl 6A)
Review
The worst first: this car is the worst car on gas I have ever owned. A friend of mine that has the V6 told me it is just as bad as the V8. 11 MPG! The V8 is very powerful and quiet. Comfortable inside except the third row. Car has a heavy feel but seems to handle well.
Favorite Features
The V8.
Suggested Improvements
Increase the fuel mileage.

My wife and I had been planning for a Honda Pilot or Toyota Highlander for a while, until we came across SRX at Edmunds.com. We got both dealer and consumer rebates of the month. Now we have it, love it and can't live without it.

Review
I have only purchased Japenese luxury cars for the past 20 years. This was the perfect storm, Lexus and Acura didn't ring my bell. I hate Infinity and I can never see eye to eye with the German companies. I decided to look at the Cadillacs. No way I was buying one, but I looked anyway. The test drive was fantastic. After much internal agonizing, I went back. There were large rebates in play and they had exactly what I was looking for. I pulled the trigger! I have never enjoyed a vehicle more. Wonderful engineering, beautiful fit and finish and a great stereo system. It has it all, size, comfort, power and a wonderful 50/50 weight distribution. Kudos to the new Cadillac management!
Favorite Features
Sound system, sport pack, ride and a real nice suspension. The interior feels like a millionaire's living room.
Suggested Improvements
SIRIUS instead of that XM garbage. Internal bluetooth would be nice. OnStar is a rip off. They need to find a way to boost that lousy gas mileage.
