2008 Cadillac CTS

The 2008 Cadillac CTS is termed the cheapest Cadillac that a person can buy and because of this is a common seller for Cadillac. However, even though it is the cheapest that a person can buy, it is also the car that many people want simply due to the performance and the style that the 2008 CTS brings to the table. The CTS is termed as a sports car with the appeal of luxury to consumers.

Performance wise there are two engine choices. Both of the engines are six cylinder, 3.6 liter engines. The more luxury model is offering direct fuel injection and 304 horsepower. While the base model offers around 260 horsepower without the direct injection. Both engines come with the option of a six speed manual transmission or the automatic transmission, with the automatic transmission being the option that most people are going with. Since the car is a performance car there are three suspensions that are available for the CTS. The FE1, FE2, and FE3. The FE3 being the most performance oriented suspension that a person can have on the CTS. The FE3 suspension reduces the risk of body rolling, and those that test drove this suspension found that the car felt more solid when heading around curves at high speeds or when faced with the many bumps and weaves that standard roads contain.

One of the biggest things about the CTS that attracts many consumers is the technology that the transmission utilizes. The car down shifts automatically when a person hits their brakes which helps to decrease the speed as well as improve gas mileage. Fuel mileage wise, the CTS gets approximately seventeen miles per gallon in the city, while getting twenty six miles per gallon on the highway. Which is nice mileage with such a large luxury vehicle.

The interior of the car stays true to the standards that Cadillac keeps in place for all of their vehicles. This means that there is ample room inside, as well as having comfortable seats that are great for those long drives. Which is one of the main reasons that people did purchase the 2008 CTS. There are many other features about the interior that add to the luxury of the vehicle, including first class stereo systems and navigation systems. The car also uses the OnStar technology that all GM vehicles utilize. However, the only drawback is that the OnStar feature does not allow for the use of Bluetooth technology. But, this is the only drawback that the professional world found with the CTS.

Overall, the 2008 Cadillac CTS is a steal for what you are getting. The high performance option that includes all of the extras goes for around $44,325, which is an amazing price given all of the extras that you can get, and for what you are getting it would be hard to find a high performance vehicles from other luxury cars for the same price, which is why the CTS is such a popular performance luxury vehicle that consumers love.
