  Phenomenal Ride - 2009 Cadillac CTS
  By Ed Bauzenberger - October 10 - 9:39 am

  Prior to my purchase of this outstanding motor vehicle, I owned a 2003 and then a 2005 Escalade. No vehicle that I have ever purchased even comes close to matching the 2009 CTS! This includes vehicles like Mercedes Benz and Audi. This CTS is absolutely pure fun to drive, gives a feeling of confidence in all driving situations and is extremely beautiful inside and out. People have come up to me and told me that they think that it is one gorgeous automobile.

  CTS AWD (A W-icked D-rive) - 2009 Cadillac CTS
  By C B - October 2 - 8:46 pm

  Because Im from the North, that is, it snows here in winter, AWD was a necessity for me. When I was looking for a new ride I tried them all. To be fair, I looked at all AWD cars similarly equipped. So, in searching, I found: IS250 (no guts-204HP, no glory). G35X, too much $$$ when you add the Sport pkg, wasnt impressed much except for the exhaust note. M-B C300-4Matic, too much $$, period! BMW 3or5 X anything, ditto. One minute behind the wheel of the CTS, the choice was clear. Motor Trend Car of the Year, need I say more? When you add the Cadillac Care program and warranty items like a free loaner, free maintenance, etc. End story! Anyone saying bad stuff about this car needs help, fast.

  A Truly Terrific Car ! - 2009 Cadillac CTS
  By MJLx2 - September 30 - 8:42 am

  This car has it all. GREAT styling inside and out, fantastic handling and outstanding build quality. Fun to drive quotient is off the charts! Ive driven my new CTS approx 2,200 miles in both suburban / expressway as well as an 800 mile highway driving. AWD glues the car to the road, yet provides a comfortable ride without sacrificing feel for the road. And, its a head turner to be sure. Not a creak, squeak or rattle - this car is tight! My previous car was a Lexus ES330 and before that an Acura TL. Before buying I test drove Acura, Lexus and BMWs. The CTS is by far and away the best vehicle in its class! Highly recommend the AWD and direct injection 304 HP options. Kudos Cadillac & GM!

  This car will save GM - 2009 Cadillac CTS
  By Larry - September 1 - 7:27 pm

  Drove from Indianapolis to Vail and back. I encountered every conceivable weather condition except snow --sunshine, rain, and even hail high buffeting winds and still air temperatures from the 40s to the 90s. Indianapolis is 500 feet above sea level. Vail pass is 10,200 feet. I kept the cruise at 77/78, except in Colorado, where I found it easier to drive with the cruise off. The car is so smooth, quiet, and comfortable that I frequently found myself doing 90 when I was not using the cruise. The A/C was flawless in the 90 degree sun, and the cooled seats were wonderful. The drive was almost like playing a video game from my easy chair. I got 26.3 mpg going west and 27.1 returning east.

  2009 Cadillac CTS - 2009 Cadillac CTS
  By Ms. Stone - August 22 - 10:12 am

  Took possession of a new 09 CTS 3 days ago. Chose it over an Infiniti M45X and hoped I would not regret it. So far, so good. This car is a beautiful automobile and fun to drive. I have Black Cherry color and it is loaded with the performance package.Controls are easy to understand much like the 06 Cadillac DTS that I just sold. As far as reliability, I cant comment because I have only had it 3 days. I love driving this car and do not regret going to a 6 cylinder from the 8 cylinders that I have always driven. Way to go Cadillac! Oh yes. A back up camera would be a wonderful addition. My 2009 CTS has the huge sunroof, which is great.

  CTS Very Nice! - 2009 Cadillac CTS
  By Jamey Talnet - August 12 - 1:59 pm

  Just took delivery of the first dealer sold 2009. Waited for the 2009 for resale value purposes as they werent really dropping any solid incentives on the 2008. So far we are completely happy with the car.

  One week and Im in love - 2009 Cadillac CTS
  By c6vette - June 30 - 2:35 pm

  I think I may be one of the first people to take delivery of an 09 CTS. To start with I have driven BMWs before and like them, but they are expensive and dont look as good in my opinion. I got the fully loaded DI with the summer performance package. This car is amazing. It is amazingly agile and has lots of room. The car stands out as very bold and the interior look, fit and finish is first rate. Much better looking on the interior than a BMW or Mercedes. The electronics are great and a lot of fun and I have to say I have never been in a car more elegant at night than the CTS. The lighting is amazing.
