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.

  • Nice Car for the Price - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    I got an ex-rental Cadillac DTS for $32,000. In my opinion, it is the best car for the money.

  • Best Yet - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    I have been driving Cadillacs since 1976 and this 2006 DTS is my favorite of all. I love the new body style, as well as the improvements on the inside. The color is Blue Ice, beautiful, rich color.

  • I Just Love It - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    I made the mistake of buying an 05 STS, to me its not what I consider a Cadillac, it rode rough and you could hear and feel every little bump, they tried to make a sports car out of a luxury car and they were way off, so in Apr of 06 I bought a new DTS. Believe me theres a world of difference The ride, style, comfort and room just to name a few. Try the DTS and youll love it.

  • Great Car, Poor Mileage - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    I love the car. I have had Infinitis (2), Jaguar (1), Volvo (1), Mazda Millenia (4), Dodge and Ford Pickups, Buick, etc etc. The DTS has great room, the ride a little soft, and the design much improved. I had an order in for new Lexus ES 350 but changed my mind when I drove the DTS. The only problem besides the poor gas mileage is what appears to be overspray on windows and other surfaces.. I am going to have my dealer look at it soon.

    This is the first Cadillac I have owned since the mid-nineties. This car is very quiet - no road or wind noise. I also have a Lexus 430, a great car but not as attractive in the interior or the exterior as the Cadillac. So far the mileage is very good!

  • Happy - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    I had one of the first Northstar engines in 1993 on a Cadillac Eldorado. I was very happy with that engine so I had to get the Performance model in my 2006 DTS. It took me a short while to learn about all the toys such as heated/cooled seats and the massage feature. The Performance model has all the toys but is well worth the purchase just to get the engine. After I sold my 1993 Cadillac I went in 2000 I went with a Lincoln Towncar Cartier Edition. The car was fine but I missed my Cadillac. The DTS rides and drives great and the Performance model is the one to buy. Get the added chrome wheels. It really sets the car off. I am very happy.

  • So Far, So Good - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    Our 2006 Cadillac DTS Luxury is our first Cadillac. We traded in a Buick LeSabre for it. It is WAY better! I read the other reviews to see if I could shed any further light on this car. First, why would anyone buy a car that floats like a boat? One test drive would tell me that. Another review says the DTS is like a sports car. A floating sports car? I like the ride MUCH better than the Buick. The ride is just right! Anyway, drive it before you buy it. Upon exit, the tilt wheel will go all the way up and in, just push the exit button again up to three times (not listed in owners manual). When unlocking the door, the seat will either move or not (personal setting). There IS memory on the tilt wheel. What a car!

    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.

  • Wonderful Car - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    Love almost everything about the Cadillac DTS, except the floor mats. It is one of the most comfortable cars I have ever driven and it has power to spare. The only complaint I have, besides the floor mats, is that a five or six speed transmission would be a welcome improvement.

  • 2006 DTS Luxury III - 2006 Cadillac DTS
    By -

    This behemoth gives the the feeling the passengers must have had on the Titanic as it floated aimlessly on the water highway prior to colliding with an iceberg. What is the problem with GM? They cannot get it right. The looks are ok, but all the accessories are screwed up. Upon exit the tilt wheel will not retreat and tilt upward fully, and when you unlock the doors it returns to driving position, so much for memory. This thing sucks gas like a Cadillac dealer trying to get your money. Wish I had bought the Lexus or Mercedes-Benz. Cadillacs are notorious for poor resale values and now I am stuck with the gas guzzling great white behemoth from GM. Oh, I forgot to mention that the fuel door is accessible to anyone.
