  Cadillac SRX owner comments - 2005 Cadillac SRX
  By Tom C. - May 12 - 2:29 pm

  Weve driven the SRX 3,000 miles since the purchase 45 days ago. 1/3 of it on a long trip the remainder has been city driving. We use the speed control whenever possible and avoid rabbit starts in stop and go driving. Both my wife and I have 50 years of driving experience, most of it with GM and Toyota vehicles. We have the six cylinder model and optional rear seats so it seats 7.

  Its Not A GMC Denali! - 2005 Cadillac SRX
  By Fred - May 9 - 7:26 pm

  Had 2004 GMC Denali before this I got my 2005 SRX V6 AWD - Likes: ride / drives well, looks great. Dislikes: city mileage is only about 14.5 MPG. I do not like the wide door stills! Its very hard to get into and out of the vehicle without getting dirt on your pants. This is not good! On the first weekend, I washed the vehicle and had a major water leak in the left upper corner of the windshield and ran down onto the dash, nice for new car. But they did fixed it! Why a 3:91-1 final drive (ratio)? RPM is approx. 2,300 - 2,400 at 70 MPH.

  Great Drive and Performance...But - 2005 Cadillac SRX
  By J.Dillon - May 6 - 8:16 pm

  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. Cant program so that doors wont lock when in gear. Very dangerous. Front seats are very hard and uncomfortable. My passengers share this view. Cant 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.

  Excellent SUV - 2005 Cadillac SRX
  By abc - April 9 - 2:26 pm

  Although its a large car, I feel like Im driving a luxury vehicle rather than an SUV. Its a great feeling after 9 years of heavy SUV driving. Cadillac, you did it!

  LOVE THAT SRX - 2005 Cadillac SRX
  By cadillacjeff - December 7 - 7:00 pm

  A blast to drive. Great seats and sound system. More electronic features than I will ever use. Eights acceleration is breathtaking! Quiet, comfortable, safe, and stable in all weather.

  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 havent tested it in much snow yet, I but am confident its all I need.

  Feel the lux & speed for yourself! - 2005 Cadillac SRX
  By Nikita - July 15 - 10:00 am

  Enjoy the space of an SUV, combined with luxury and speed. An added plus is the expanded sun-roof ...almost like a SUV convertible (primary reason for choosing the SRX).

  Extras, Good and Bad - 2005 Cadillac SRX
  By RobinClem - February 5 - 12:40 pm

  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 dont want the sun roof, so think that over. (Its 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.
