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.

  • Our fourth Cadillac - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    My wife is of European origin, and she insisted that we buy American. Each vehicle we have purchased has been better than the previous model. The DTS is very comfortable for both the driver and passenger. It has more than enough power for both open road and getting around town. No one should carry more than it can fit in the generous trunk. My only complaint about this latest model is that Cadillac dropped the electronic seat adjustment gadget that fixed the seat to fit the preferences of the driver for that key.

  • Best Caddy Ive owned. - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    The longer Ive had this car the more I like it. The only disappointment I have found is the floor mats, which are very cheesy. The car would be even better if it had a 5 or 6 speed transmission.

  • Tetirement - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    The DTS is very comfortable on long drives. I love the remote start so the car can be cooled down before entering. Im surprised with the good gas milage. It is better than the Acura RL that we traded in. Also, it burns regular fuel not premium. We like the monthly reminders from OnStar. Any questions after purchase were promtly answered.

  • First New Cadillac - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    It feels good in these times to have bought an American product. Is every bit as good, if not better, than the BMW I bought new, or the Lexus bought new.

  • Great Car - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    This is a wonderful car, much improved over the DeVille, and it sells for LESS than the old version. It is a quiet and a very well thought out car. I love the "rumble" you hear from the exhaust when you give it a little acceleration.

  • GM Got it Right! - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    I really like the car. It is my first Cadillac. It replaced a Q45. It has nice power, a great sound, and excellent build quality. My wife wanted comfortable seats, not European / Japanese hard seats. She really likes the comfort now and does not complain after long trips. The car is really quiet and has an excellent ride. The car has excellent handling abilities on the highway, tight steering, and only a little lean in the corners and curves for a car of this size and comfort.

  • Excellent Car - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    This is the thrid Cadillac that I have owned since 1976. The DTS is the best handling and the most quiet of the three. I have the Luxury 2 model with chrome wheels, titanium paint, and the trunk package. I have had no trouble with it since my purchase.

  • Just in the Nick of Time - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    I bought a certified 2003 ETC and wanted to get another but, sadly, the Eldorado was discontinued in 2002. I had no plans to get another Cadillac because none of their other models appealed to me, but the 2006 DTS, is no longer an "old-folks", boat of a car and it really got my attention. It looks great inside and out. The Performance package has more options than one has the right expect. Getting all the preferences set takes some study and experimentation, but this car really pampers you once they are. The DTS has plenty of power, as good as my ETC and is very quiet and well-mannered on the road. The environment control is superb.

  • Personal Opinion - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    The Cadillac DTS has an excellent appearance and outstanding performance, It is pleasant driving, smooth riding, and has no outside wind noise. I get many favorable comments from passing pedestrians. It is my 13th Cadillac and I trade every two years. It is somewhat lacking on gas mileage in city driving though.

  • Very, very happy - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    I have had my DTS Performance for 3 months and with the exception of its fuel consumption I could not be happier. Ive had several back operations and needed a comfortable smooth riding car I got beyond my expectations with the DTS. It has power to spare. Comfort and ameneties are plentiful. My favorite option is the adaptive cruise control which does an amazing job maitaining safe spacing between cars. The front and rear heated/cooled seats are extremely comfortable. The sound system is excellent though with the nav system you loose the six disc changer. Other manufacturers manage to have a CD changer with nav system. GM should do so too. Everything else is great.
