This Year's Model Updates:

The DeVille receives a significant batch of updates for 2006, and Cadillac has renamed it the "DTS." Highlights include new front and rear sheet metal and fascias, a new interior, improved chassis components and a strengthened structure.

Pros:
  • Spacious and comfortable cabin, admirable handling for a sedan of its size, easy-to-use DVD navigation system.
Cons:
  • Lacks the upscale image of its competition, interior materials should be better for the price.

  • DTS Hard Under Legs - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    The drivers seat in my DTS is very uncomfortable. The premium leather has a rough finish and the seat cuts my legs under the thighs. This car also tends to over steer.

    This car is great! I love this car. It has good get up and go. It rides like a dream and is very comfortable inside.

  • Nice Car - 2006 Cadillac DTS

    I bought a Cadillac DTS because it had the most roomy back seat of all the vehicles that we drove. I have been suprised by the quality of the car, it is really put together well. The performance version is a real kick to drive. Lexus drivers in the neighbohood are always impressed by the car. It is sensational for the money.

    I find the 2006 Cadillac DTS to be a much better car than the 2003 DeVille that I traded in for it. It is a more solid and quiet car. The only problem is its poor gas mileage.

  • Disappointed - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    I waited months for my 2006 Cadillac DTS Luxury. It replaced my 2004 DHS. I have had a new Cadillac every 12-18 months since 1988. I am disappointed with the 2006 DTS. Is Cadillac trying to make the DTS a sport car? Big tires and rims = a poor ride. Here are some other things I dont like: The gas tank is too small. The fule door does not lock remotely. The fuel cap holder is too low on the filler door, allowing the cap to rub against the body. There is no memory on the electric tilt wheel, no pass-to-flash unless headlights are on. The arm rest on the drivers door is too low. Also, whats with the chrome door lock knobs sticking me in the arm? This car has poor workmanship, a gap in the caulk around trunk resulted in trunk well full of water.

    My other car is a 2003 Corvette so when I say Im impressed by my new DTS Performance Edition it should mean something. Ive only put about 3,000 miles on it so far but I love this car! Its excellent handling and punchy V8 are a pleasant surprise in a car as large as the DTS. If youre looking for a car in this catagory youve got take a DTS out for a test drive.

  • How to mess up a great car - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    Without a doubt this is one of the finest autos I have ever driven. But, I cannot understand why so many details were installed hastily just so that they could hurriedly put the car into production. The glove box for instance is no comparison to my old 02. Most of the interior is plastic. This is not what you would expect in a $50,000 car. The consol is about useless. There is no longer a light under the hood. Mine has a heated stearing wheel that does not heat. It has so many buttons to press that after three months I do not know what many of them are for. The easy exit seat is easy exit but not easy entrance. The doors dificult to close. Also, amazingly this car does not have a locking gas door.

  • Just Test drove this car - 2006 Cadillac DTS

    I own a 2003 DTS, which was in for service. I love the car and have no problems. My 2003 is cetified so the dealership gave me a new DTS to drive while they were working on it. This is a very nice car! At first I did not like the look, or feel but as I drove it I noticed how quickly it repsonded to my touch, it handles great and is very fast. I went to pass on the highway and was doing 75, within seconds I was hitting 95! This is a fast big sedan! When I got my 2003 back, my first thought was how much can I get on a trade?

  • more bang for your buck - 2006 Cadillac DTS

    We bought this car when it was two years old, with 7,358 miles on it; paid 40% of what it sold for new. Its been an excellent highway cruiser ... still gets compliments on its appearance, comfortable ride and quietness.. The low profile tires make for zippy cornering, but our previous Cadillacs had taller tires that gave an even better ride ... too bad hot-dogging sells vehicles these days ... all the TV ads show cars being driven as if they are toys, expensive macho playthings instead of transportation.
