"we bought the SRX a month ago and really love it. everything is so perfect. the only drawback I can see is the car has some major blindspots so we have to be cautious.
but other than that i really feels luxurious.

"I have owned my Caddy SRX for a month now, and I think it's awesome overall. I love the new electronics features, like keyless ignition, and I love almost everything about it. My complaints below are really minor.
The only negatives are not specific to this particular model, but they are there, so I give it a 4 instead of a 5 overall. Probably should be 4.8. One problem is the GPS system. It doesn't always take me to the right place, but I supposed that is true for all of them. I can't program it while my wife drives the car, or vice versa. This is just plain stupid -- too much nanny state big brother save you from yourself nonsense.
And sometimes my wife forgets to put it in park, but since there is no key interlock, she can leave the car in that state. She comes into the restaurant and says, "It won't lock, so I left it unlocked." Good thing the parking lot was just level enough... It would be better if they did not allow the engine to be stopped. I don't think she would leave it with the engine running, but ... well, who knows.
I'm not sure the roof rack and the big sun roof really go together. I'm afraid to put much of anything up there unless it can span the rails and not sit on the glass.
All that said, overall I still love the car, even the price! I would definitely do it again, and would recommend it to anyone."

"I purchased a new 2012 SRX. It has a very comfortable ride which is in my opinion, better than a comparable Mercedes Benz. The vehicle has had no defects from the factory. Performance is very good and it does not require premium fuel. Anything but the base model are very well equipped. Overall a very good value in the premium small SUV field. Previous years were noted to have been under powered. The 2012-2013 models have resolved this. My wife and I are very pleased."

"2012 Cadillac SRX has been updated with a larger V6 that really turns this vehicle into a tractable touring car for all seasons. Purchased brand new and immediately went on vacation to the Rockies in it. Plenty of room for suitcases and golf clubs, very roomy cabin that is extremely quiet. Very comforatable seats that invite you to drive. Satellite radio and 60 GB Hard Drive, Navigation that is voice programmable and accurate. Got 25.8 on the flatlands, and 22.1 in the mountains on regular and mid-grade fuel. The SRX is the choice in the AWD Crossover and it's a US Brand. Buy it you will not be disappointed."

"I have had my new 2012 Luxury SRX fully loaded for 1200 miles. I like the car overall but turns out it is a little small inside for my individual likes. I should have spent more time driving it and maybe asked for an overnight test drive of it. I had a 2008 Buick Enclave I traded and it was larger and great, just wanted to try out a smaller SUV? No room in back seat when hauling more than two and rear vision it’s very bad. Car performs great but I will probably only keep it two years and then go to larger Enclave size vehicle again. Because it is shorter the ride is not as good as I was use to and I hear more road noise in this vehicle. If you like the size I think it is an outstanding buy and at this point I feel a quality built vehicle"

"Our new SRX is what we expected and a lot more. There are a lot of great safety features plus a lot of luxury toys. The backup camera and sensors are very helpful when trying to back into tight places. The navigation is really nice when traveling. We've never had onstar before but now won't go without it. The guages and information center is really nice to see how the vehicle is performing etc. The ride is very smooth and quiet. Our first tank of fuel we got 22 MPG . not bad for small trips and just showing everybody our new SRX. This vehicle has more standard equipment than any of the big name crossovers. Plus it's a Caddy!!!"

"I recently purchased a 2012 Cadillac SRX. I am simply amazed at technology in this vehicle. The navigation system and phone system is the best I have ever used. The driver’s seat backs up when you exit the car allowing for comfort while exiting the vehicle. With the push of a button it returns to your desired settings. Two different drivers can be configured in memory to ensure the seats and mirrors return to their programmed setting for each driver. There is even a button that heats the steering wheel for cold mornings. However, I won’t be using it much in central Texas. Not only can you start the car remotely but you also have the ability to remotely roll down all four windows. Cadillac has thought of everything when designing this vehicle. It is the smoothest riding vehicle I have ever owned. There are 4 different versions of this vehicle, I have the luxury version. Other luxury vehicles at this price point did not even have half of the options that come with the SRX. . I highly recommend this vehicle."

"My wife and I had a 2011 SRX, the 3. engine was not enough power for this car. When we bought it that was the bad write up on the car. Well, we now have a 2012 with a 3.6 engine and it is like a complete different car. The power is great and a lot more fun to drive. I am so glad that GM made this change. Now this 2012 SRX is all what it should be, a Cadillac with everything."

"It is still early but we have owned the 2012 SRX for a few months... we looked in 2010 but the engine, review issues, and being a new model made us wait. And with the new engine, fixes, and few styling changes, we are glad that we did.
Love it so far... time will tell (reliability).
Everything is tight inside like other foreign SUV's we have had or have now (MDX). Styling is one of the best and comfort features are numerous. We did test drive with 18" and 20" wheels and the 18" wheels by far gave the best comfort ride - more tread on them (research it). I didn't think it would make that much of a difference and it does. The new engine is the best design change and we probably would not have purchased it without this change. Big difference. AND it runs on regular fuel! Do your research is all I can add..."

"So after many years of owning high end european cars and japanese cars, I finally gave Cadillac a try. It was the arrival of the new SRX engine that caused me to take a look.
The car is incredible. It manages to drive very tight and smooth at the same time. The steering feedback is perfect without being too rough. All of the controls are easy to use and car has everything.
I bought a fully loaded version and compared to the competitors it represents a bargain.
If you buy an X5, XC90, ML350 or RX you will regret not driving the Cadillac first."
