2003 Cadillac SRX V8 AWD review from North America
"Likeable Station Wagon (!)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing so far.
Only the price was the negative at 48k+
General comments?
New Cadillac 'tall wagon' is all it was cracked up to be. Excellent acceleration, handling and braking. AWD makes for good traction in all kinds of weather, especially here in the Midwest.
TONS of features, including: DVD navigation, rear-seat entertainment, HID headlamps, extra-large sunroof, heated soft leather seats, power folding 3rd row seat, 5 speed automatic with driver shift control, magnetic ride control (computer-controlled magnetically adjusting shocks) and last, but not least, an excellent Northstar V8.
This, in my opinion, is better quality than any Caddy of the last 10 years. Superb fit and finish, great 'new era' looks, high amounts of safety features (multiple side airbags, stiff frame, etc.), and it can be had in rear wheel drive!!
I would recommend this to anyone looking for the new wave of station wagons.
