Outstanding car at any great price!
Source: MSN Autos

...Look for oil leaks, if there is then walk away. My Cadillac enjoys her oil, but I don't mind if that is the only issue, I add 1 quart at every fill up. The best thing is all repairs are so cheap, the tires have to be perfectly balanced or you will feel it, I take it back everytime if they dont get it right and they are always amazed that I can feel the slightest off balance. Overall: Great long lasting car, change the oil, be sure to give it lots of oil to drink because they tend to have a drinking problem. Be sure to drive a few of the same model to feel what one is the tightest because some...

Nothing like a Caddy
Source: MSN Autos

...Pros: value with a capital V....the Luxury Editions are fantastic, options that are found on only cars form Europe and twice the price.
such as htd. and cooled seats, rear heated sts. XM radio, handsfree telephone with Onstar, remote starting, and my favorite, heated windshield washer for those snowy and icy mornings.
of course standard is the Northstar V8 32 valve with great performance and good m.p.g.
all on regular gasoline. and there's nothing like front wheel drive in the snowy midwest part of the country.
Cons: nothing...have owned many Cadillacs and never any major...

...Pros: It is made for both driver and passenger. Great ride with all the extras you would ever want.
Cons: Nothing. Overall: Would recommend to anyone. How can your raters (CR) compare this vehicle to a VW, Pontiac, or most of the others listed is beyond me. No comparson whatsoever...

...Pros: This is the fifth Caddy I`ve owned and they`re one better than the other.
My wife has been through almost all the other luxury cars, Lincoln,Audi,Lexus and none can compare with my Caddi`s.
I have people waiting for me to buy my new Caddy so they can buy my old one.
I have no trouble selling them. Excellent handling,quality and great gas mileage for a car of this size.
I drive to Florida twice a year and never a problem and if by chance something minor developes , the warrenty & service is excellent.

Best car ever owned

...with heated & cooled / memory seats /bose 6-cd changer /sun roof/ power sun shade/ Performance package has only 17 more H/P than the other DTS however it really shows, the large 18" chrome wheels and wide tires handles very well. and plenty of power this car is so smooth on the highway you glide at 85 MPH and this car does not float with body roll, Solid car beautiful looks and comfort, watch the speed as this car easily rolls at 80+ mph and you dont realize it, very quiet no road or outside noise my neighbor has a 07 Lexus and admits he likes this car much better and will likely trade to a...

Why should I also consider these?

There isn’t much competition in this categoryThe Buick Lucerne shares its underbody and running gear with the Cadillac DTS, along with its spacious interior.

Chrysler sells a long-wheelbase version of its 300 sedan that sports more rear legroom, but it's still primarily a five-seater, and its interior isn't as nicely finished as the Cadillac.

Lincoln's Town Car is the old man on the totem pole, with a ride that tends to be oddly firm yet bouncy, especially on extended versions.

It’s now bought mostly for fleets, and Ford likely will cancel the model in the near future.

 
2009 Buick Lucerne
A soft ride and roomy interior still form the solid base for the 2009 Buick Lucerne’s appeal.
