Over 200,000 miles and going...
I just past 200,000 miles!!! I've owned this Caddy for almost 7yrs. Bought with 1684miles...yes, 1,684! Regular oil changes & tune-ups and I've had one issue... At 154,320miles I had the transmission go out. I had it rebuilt. Now at 201,140 there is a ticking that's coming from the engine block and I have a torn drivers side seat. The car is going to be my son's after the ticking sound is looked at by Cadillac. I am now looking for another 2007-2010 DTS!!!

Luxury ride for ow budget price
I have owned a 2007 DTS for almost 3 years and really enjoy it a lot. The ride, room, luxury feel and looks are what Cadillac built their reputation on and this car does not disappoint. The biggest caveat is that it must be driven like the big heavy boat it is or you will burn through gas, brakes and suspension parts, all of which can be expensive. I have yet to replace any brake components but have had to replace tie rods, etc.,after 2 years. I do not recommend for a youthful driver. It is built for a more mature experienced driver who anticipates rather than reacts to the road. If you are looking for a car under $6k that look and drives like you spent 10 times that, do consider the DTS. While repairs can be pricey they are far less than a BMW or Mercedes and are comparable to other GM products. The engine seems rock solid as does the tranny. It can't be beat for comfort on the highway and I get about 28mpg at 72mph. Town MPG varies from as low as 8 in the summer to 12 in moderate traffic.

Love my DTS...
I bought this car used six years ago and have driven it 2/3 of its life. It has been a pleasure to drive. I previously owned a 1992 Lexus LS 400 and was intending to drive it forever, but it was a little small for my husband. The DTS has met his need for more room and it had more "bells and whistles than my '92. It took a while to get used to the more "cushiony" drive, but after I did I fell in love with it. Could not live without OnStar. Only reason I am trading is because we need a higher car due to hip problems, so plan on getting an SRX. Otherwise would keep it for years more. Love it.

Mystic Gray DTS
Fun to drive, tighter cabin feel,no gas tank release or lock, no automatic break release, rear trunk area too high, no auto trunk close/lock. Leaves a lot to be desired from the previous years of Cadillac ownership. Driver's seat really squeals with the leather rubbing against the console, rear headliner problems. Navigation is great, so is the Bose sound. Gas mileage is less than my previous DTS by three miles city and 2 miles highway. The higher end, shorter body makes it look more like a sport than a luxury sedan. The vehicle has enough power, but sure sucks up the gas when you, 'step on it'. Nice color coordination on the Mystic Gray ext. and the titanium interior.
Get a Life--it's a Caddy!
Why do "reviewers" think everything on wheels has to be an McClaren? This is a luxury car that is extremely comfortable, reasonably nimble for a 2- ton vehicle, easy to enter and exit, gets me 18+ mpg around town, well made, gives me a back massage, decent appearance. It does what I want it to do in terrific fashion! I'm not sure why a luxury automobile needs 55-series tires, 17 inch wheels, and nearly 300 horsepower, but it does. I've owned a 800 hp street-legal '57 Chevy, I've driven my Dad's Chrysler Hemi for several thousand miles--and they were both great, but I'll take my Caddy for everyday driving. It's solid American iron and I don't think it needs to apologize for anything!
