  • Great 2008 CTS!! - 2008 Cadillac CTS
    By -

    I have owned over 20 new cars so far and the 2008 CTS is Number 1 on my list of cars that Ive owned! Its great distinctive styling and great looks, fabulous interior, great reliability and super handling makes it fun to drive and a real joy to own! Cadillac and GM have really done a great job on this car! The attention to detail and build quality is the best Ive experienced! The interior in the CTS is truly a work of art! If you havent considered or test driven the new CTS, you are not being fair to yourself and your missing one of the best car choices out there! The CTS is a super overall package especially with its great all wheel drive option! Give it a try and see for yourself!

  • 2008 CTS AWD 3.6DI - 2008 Cadillac CTS
    By -

    After looking at several cars (BMW 330xi, Mercedes Benz C230 & Audi A4) we decided to go with a CTS4 as Ive been a Caddy fan for years. The 3.6L DI is exceptional, fun to drive and the overall build quality is something Im not used to from GM. There are several flaws in the vehicle that Im experiencing (minor) such as the express close moonroof doesnt actually close on its own and the steering has a light clicking when turning. One major disappointment for me comes not from the car, but from GM. Our nearest Cadillac dealership is 2.5 hrs away somewhat a nuisance when repairs are necessary, especially when we have about 4 GM dealers in the area.

  • Amazing car! - 2008 Cadillac CTS
    By -

    This car has been incredible since owning it gets more looks and comments than any car Ive ever owned. Sure, the mileage isnt great, but I didnt buy this to save a few $ on fuel. Interior is SO quiet, build quality is fantastic, and its a pleasure to drive. In fact, my wife and I fight over who gets to drive it when we go out! We chose the black on black, which really sets the car off. Absolutely stunning to look at. With regards to comfort, Im 65" and have no worries in the drivers seat. Would suggest winter tires for the snow as it is rear drive, but otherwise not a problem. Would buy another one in a heartbeat. LOVE IT!

  • 2008 CTS all options - 2008 Cadillac CTS

    Well I also picked up my cts. It came in with everything including the wood wheel and shifter. I waited till now to write this because after a 1000 miles I have a clear picture of its performance. I have not found anything wrong with this car. It was ordered with every option AWD,DI,89U, spoiler, this without a doubt the most enjoyable car I have ever owned. The moonroof is great (here in NYC) the handling fantastic, the bose sound system and the HDD are great. No negatives at all. Great work Cadillac. The American car is back!

  • Great Car - 2008 Cadillac CTS
    By -

    I bought this car just over a year ago. Love the 40 gig hard drive, and nav system with the traffic reports. The car is very comfortable to drive, and handling and acceleration are better than average. The CTS is a sharp looking car inside and out, and the build quality is better than my last two cars, a Mercedes and a Jag. One of the best cars Ive owned.

  • Sexy and Fun to Drive! - 2008 Cadillac CTS
    By -

    I absolutely love my 2008 CTS. I chose a 6 speed manual with the direct injection (304 hp) and for the power it gets amazing fuel economy. I have not had one single problem with this car since I drove it off the dealer lot. The cabin is comfortable, quiet and has lots of goodies to play with. Th exterior literally makes heads turn. The materials are high quality and the design is flawless.

  • First Impression - 2008 Cadillac CTS
    By -

    I just purchased this car from a private party, a good friend so I know it has been treated well. What a surprise. The car is fantstically put together. Weleld esigned and executed. An absolute pleasure to drive. Looking forward to a very lengthy relationship.

  • Applause Well Deserved - 2008 Cadillac CTS
    By -

    Have owned Audi, Jag, Acura, and Infiniti. The 2008 CTS has them all beat in terms of overall performance and comfort. Averaging 2,000 miles per month of combined city/hwy driving with overall fuel economy of 22 mpg on reg gas. AWD has handled the lake effect snow in Buffalo with no problem and highway driving is more fun and just as comfortable as a Q45.

  • After one Year of Driving - 2008 Cadillac CTS
    By -

    Great car! I have owed many fast cars but this one is fast, corners like crazy and is a great luxury vehicle at the same time! I am getting 20 mpg around town and 26-28 on the highway! Mine has the F2 suspension with the direct Injection. If this car holds together like I think it will I will buy another (assuming GM is still in business).

  • Love this car - 2008 Cadillac CTS
    By -

    Easily the best car that I have ever owned. Have driven 3,000 miles the first two weeks that I have owned it. Fantastic ride, gas mileage, styling. Never thought that I would actually love a car. I was wrong. Would recommend it to anyone.
