2008 Cadillac SRX Base Sport Utility 4-Door 3.6L

Detailed item info Model OverviewCadillac's 2008 SRX is available in two basic flavors: V8 and V6. Both engines offer variable valve timing and can be mated to an optional all-wheel-drive system. Even the base V6. which uses GM's excellent 255-horsepower "high feature" 3. 6L engine can be driven quickly. which is more rewarding than you would expect. Cadillac has really spent some time sorting out the suspension tuning of both SRX models. and it shows. Upgrade to the Northstar 4. 6L V8. and horsepower increases to 320. Choose the optional Magnetic Ride Control adaptive suspension. and handling goes from very good to outstanding. as this SUV feels tight and responsive around turns. giving it a cornering feel on par with Infiniti's FX or the BMW X5. Still. the highway ride remains smooth and comfortable. which is how most SUV buyers prefer it. The feel and responsiveness of the steering and brakes impress as well. Just about every convenience feature you can imagine is available on the SRX. including sport packages with 18-inch or 20-inch wheels and tires. premium seating. a theater package that includes a rear seat DVD player (now a de rigueur offering in SUVs). high intensity discharge headlamps. an "Ultraview" panoramic sunroof. and more. Overall. the 2008 Cadillac SRX is a very well-rounded package. and should remain a top choice for those wanting a bit more on-road excitement from their SUV.
