Overview & Reviews

The Cadillac CTS receives only minor trim and package revisions for 2006. Most significantly, there's a new 18-inch performance tire-and-wheel package available for 3.6-liter V6-equipped cars. Like the 17-inch wheel package it includes HID headlights, a sport-tuned suspension, and stability control, but also has a tire-pressure monitoring system and stronger brakes. Other changes include a new XM Nav Traffic feature and enhanced driver control for the automatic transmission.

• Excellent handling, spacious cabin, wide array of available features, alternative look.

  Cadillac CTS 3.6 Sedan - 2006 Cadillac CTS
  By jack - December 14 - 7:00 pm

  I have had my CTS for two months and I am ecstatic over this car! I tried out the Mercedes C230 and was amazed that the CTS was far superior in all categories...this vehicle has it all! By the way, I am a retired GM dealer, but I have an open mind...I had enough new-car demos in my career that I am not easily impressed by cars, but this CTS is a winner.

  There are better choices out there - 2006 Cadillac CTS
  By buster90 - November 12 - 11:14 pm

  I am very disappointed with my 2006 Cadillac CTS. With a $36,000 sticker price you expect a nice car. It ha no heated seats, no rear seat ducts, no homelink, no power passenger seat, no memory seat, and no compass. This was a joke considering all of the competitors have these options at this price. If you want them...expect to pay around $40,000. The engine noise expecially dugint hard acceleration is loud, I expect this in a $15,000 Pontiac G6, not a $36,000 Cadillac CTS. The build quality cant compare to Infiniti, Lexus, or Acura. There are better cars for the money.

  Not to Shabby - 2006 Cadillac CTS
  By Don Powell - November 5 - 11:57 am

  I got a white diamond 2006 Cadillac CTS with cashmere interior. The new interior looks much better than the 2005 models. I also got the polished wheels with the luxury package which gives you lumbar seats and the passenger has eight way seat as well. The memory drivers seat is handy for multiple drivers. The hands free phone is excellent along with Onstar. It has a lot of get up and go which I dont really need but it is nice to know it is there if needed. The car is quiet, smooth and has excellent handling. I have a PT Cruiser and believe it or not it compares well to the ride and handling of the CTS. Getting in and out of the PT Cruiser is much easier but of course being much higher it should be.

  Poor delivery experience - 2006 Cadillac CTS
  By Bill W. - October 27 - 4:54 pm

  The Wisonsin factory failed to complete their new car checklist, before delivering the car to the dealer. After the defects were fixed, the car handles / brakes / performs well, although the interior could use a little spiffing up, and the manual up/down shift control, integrated as part of the automatic transmission, was missing -- a standard feature on competitors similarly-priced models. The following defects were all covered by the factory warranty, but still meant that I had to spend a lot of my free time during a couple of work weeks going back and forth a total of 3 times: Trip 1: Defective left front strut Trip 2: Right front power window stuck Trip 3: Engine computer.

  Out of this world - 2006 Cadillac CTS
  By Andrea - October 15 - 2:17 pm

  This car is a dream to drive. I knew it was a great car but I did not know what a thrilling experience it can be to drive a near sports car for that amount of money. I have owned a Cadillac DeVille before (1992) but the two vehicles cannot be compared. I also own an SUV (other brand) and am delighted with the CTSs comfort. I finally found a car that more nimble and more fun to drive and ride in than a BMW (which I still own and will get rid of) or my friends Mercedes. I test drove the Toyota Avalon before deciding to buy the CTS. My advice: Drive a CTS before buying the Avalon the handling will convince you - plus the CTS has style and character.

  I love my car! - 2006 Cadillac CTS
  By Karen - October 13 - 1:01 am

  I have had my 2006 Cadillac CTS for about nine months and everytime I get in it, I think about how much I love it. My husband laughs at me because I still say it after this many months.

  First New Caddy - 2006 Cadillac CTS
  By Glenn P - October 7 - 8:55 pm

  So far I am quite pleased with my purchase. I just returned from Las Vegas, a 600 mile trip, and got 25 mpg running in the high 70 to low 80s most of the trip. The a/c works great, the car has has lots of vim for passing, and is fairly quiet on the road. I wish the interior was a little larger to support my 6 foot frame. My wife loves the car and shes the one who made the selection.

  Lovin the CTS - 2006 Cadillac CTS
  By Sal - September 13 - 5:59 pm

  Test drove the competitive set (Acura TL, Lexus ES330, BMW 3-Series, Mercedes C-Class, Volvo S60). The CTS blew them away in comfort, handling and amenities. Took me 4 weeks to make the decision, but I went for the Cadillac. No regrets. The dealer was excellent- patient, low pressure and I was satisfied with the deal.

  Cadillac Awakening - 2006 Cadillac CTS
  By hifiguru - August 6 - 2:58 pm

  I just turned 1,000 miles and I am more in love with this car every day. I drove many others before driving the Cadillac including the BMW 330i, Infiniti M35, Audi A6, Lexus ES 330, and Mercedes-Benz C320. Of these I had decided on the 330i and was ready to buy when I stopped into the Cadillac store. They asked me to take a drive and give a honest opinion. I was blown away. This car out handled, out powered, and was flat out a better value than anything else I had driven. This is definently not my grandparents Cadillac. The imports had better watch out because Cadillac has their number.
