Lastly, an engine water temperature gauge replaces the clock on the dash.

    The automotive press is missing the boat on this one. The styling is distinctive and different and I like that a lot considering the sea of boring imports out there. The CTS has great power, gets good gas mileage, is comfortable, has a ton of storage and overall is a ball to drive. It has a great turning radius and is a snap to parallel park in the city. What more could you want? The best parts of my day are driving to and from work in this gem.

  • Best car I have ever driven - 2004 Cadillac CTS

    My first Cadillac was the Catera in 2001 which I thought was a very well- built car. The new CTS leaves the Catera in the dust! Wonderful handling on the open road, and when you use the cruise control, you get a cruising range of 400+! The seats are extremely comfortable (both front and rear), and the temperature controls make riding in extreme heat or cold a non-issue. I am floored that this is not in the top ten list of "Best of..." cars. One drive will convince you.

  • I love it - 2004 Cadillac CTS

    I got this car more as a joke than anything else (plus I got the best lease rates). Little did I know that I would fall in love with it. The car is a complete blast to drive (its alive). Acceleration is excellent (especially for the size of the motor), braking is excellent and handling is excellent. The car was flawlessly assembled. I have no complaints. I have even become somewhat enamored with the styling.

  • Enjoyment - 2004 Cadillac CTS
    By -

    The car is a joy to drive. I have driven it for approximately 8300 miles with any trouble. Prior to owning this car I drove a Honda Accord, primarily because of the Hondas reliability record. However, the Cadillac has been trouble free and more fun to drive. This is my first Cadillac and Id buy another without hesitation.

    Absolutely terrific package for the money. Great performance, room, handling, and looks. Beats all those "boring" Lexuss and overpriced German autos at their own game. Only wish I could step up to the CTS V!

    Probably the best, sterio system I have ever owned from a production car. The VVT6 is also a performer powertrain I can not compare. Well done, one can tell there is a Geramn touch on this vehicle.
