  • CADDYLACK

  • Made with hammers not chopsticks

  • the dashboard looks insaly cheap

  • This is a fucking wicked car. Call it the last of the Old-School Caddy and matter of fact, last of the Old-School American cars. Love the shape and presence, and most of all the Northstar engine.

  • @TUBEPOTATO500 The name of the song is Only Time Will Tell by ASIA.

  • Beautiful & Classy Ride. I want one in all black.

  • the transmission on the 2005-2011 Cadillac DTS

    Transmission

    4-speed 4T80 automatic

  • Made in Detroit.

  • Anybody know the name of that song playing on the radio @ 6:38?

  • BTW FWD WTF?

  • Beautiful car but a 4 speed transmission in 2011 is despicable. As is the lack of Navigation unit in a 46k car. It should be standard. Don't get me wrong I would have this car in a second but it looks like it belongs in the year 2002

  • @scruffynerfherder90 it was most likely aimed at an older audience.

  • @scruffynerfherder90 Its not a race car its a road cruiser you dont need 5 speed. The NorthStar is a beast to theres also a 300 HP option. Ive criss cossed the cuntry in mine and theres no better ride climbs hills and you never hear the motor strain. When you get on the highway theres plenty of power and she cruises at 80 without breaking a sweat where those 4s and 6 cylynders strain. plenty of room for luggage and a sound system and those seats like you never left the couch

  • Beautiful

  • I sure will miss the Deville/DTS, this is definitely one of Cadillac's greatest legends.

  • I drove 1400 miles last week, it is an amazing Luxury car.

  • why didnt gm make these push button start??

  • @iluvmycity216 some of them are. this is a really basic model. I think the ones from the late 90s where better with more models the Deville the De Ellegance and the Concours. Theres also a DHS. These cars are wonderful powerful and beutiful an the fuel econmy isnt bad. for a such a big car and an cyl. Push to start generally and option you can pay for but the dealers charge alot better to take it to a local mech you trust. ive had it installed in three of mine.no probs so far

  • the engine on the 2005-2011 Cadillac DTS

    Engine

    4.6 L Northstar LD8 V8

    4.6 L Northstar L37 V8

  • Honestly, FWD on a full-size Cadillac sedan doesn't make sense. I mean, yes, some will argue it gives better traction for snow. But if someone were to spend their money on a luxury car like a Cadillac, and seek better all-weather performance, they ought to be able to afford AWD.

    Oh well, I wished they kept making the STS.

  • CTS, maybe... DTS - out dated design. They only reason these cars sell is the badging. Other than that, it's close to the ugliest luxury car made today.

  • While this is a big, boaty v8 with lots of room, it is badly lacking on new technology. Starting at 46K, this is quite a ripoff. Only a senior citizen who wears polyester golf pants and white shoes will buy this car.

  • 4 speed auto... wow GM ... just fucking wow. 1985 called - it wants it transmission back.

  • Comment removed

  • do the ford fusion sport

  • Thanks grandpa Kyle

  • Cadilac was long , great , large , respected and majestic . But look this design it is silly as if it is designed for children .

  • @Jakeman2164 Avalons lol

  • Just about time they got rid of this, I loathe this car for what it done to all of the time I wasted taking it to the dealer to have it fixed, mine was the same color and everything, looks like a big red nightmare to me.

  • It would be a perfect car if it had rwd :(

  • Love rwd cadillacs, its really sad gm had to go make fwd caddies. Newer caddies do not have that old cadillac pizzazz

  • Goodbye Northstar

  • This car looks really nice.

  • Luv dis car man!..cant wait to get one asap!...

  • its funny the way america is replacing its v8 muscle car style police and taxis with some shitty v6 ford.

  • Personally i like the Older Deville Better....exterior and interior wise.

    Why a 4 Speed Auto in this when all the other caddies have 6 Speed Autos?

  • 2011 LUXURY sedan with a four speed automatic, that's an absolute joke, no wonder GM was about to go under and it's just a matter of time before it actually does. These American car companies know how to milk you "patriots" with their piece of shit cars.

  • Can u do a 2011 BMW 5 series? you have it?

  • can u please do the audi Q7???...please..

    

  • @jmccoy3663 LOL

  • that area around the speedometer made out of just dull black plastic... no offence intended but it looks really cheap.

  • I just love this car... you should do a video on the DTS Hearse i know its creepy but there so beautiful!

  • @JustSupaman2009 Yeah. and the back door opens by just a click of a button. CREEPY!

  • I've got a 2000 DeVille and it can do 6k RPMs. I actually like the older DeVille style more than this new DTS. 

  • @VSTwoSix Me to mainly the back end.....

  • I much prefer the older generation DeVille's over the new DTS. The DTS just lack's the style and finesse the older generations had. This is just a dressed up Impala IMO. I wish that they would update this maybe a facelift and interior upgrade. Something more unique than what it is today.

    Kyle please do a review on the 89-93 generation please, this is my favorite generation. :)

  • Cadillac #FTW

  • @C4AU192 whats an FTW ? sorry i am a secind language

  • Old folks need a big ass trunk for their dead bodies.

  • that's a big ass trunk!

  • I love this car!

  • u haven a review on a 1996 AUdi A4?

  • مع احترامي لك يا صاحب المقطع السيارات الامريكيه اصبحت اسواء السيارات

  • this car looks like 2001, not 2011

  • @Rayportugal americans =P

  • I like how the DTS even the Luxury Collection uses a Key instead of a Push Button Start. Keys will never break on you. But Push Button Start will so will the key less entry.

  • do a 2011 chevy avalanche

  • If Cadillac Wants To Survive They Should Start To Release Models With Diesel Engines !

  • that huuuuuuge fob ... and it's not push button / smart key.

  • Pros: Very Luxurious Interior, American Styling, Awesome Leather Seats, Cool Exterior Lighting features, Rear AND Front Parking Sensors

    Cons: Very Old-Fashioned, No Manual Shifter, No Push-Button Start, No Navigator, Underpowered Engine (275 on a 4.6? Come on !)

    The Verdict: Id so choose the Chrysler 300 over this..I think this model should be either renewed or retired

  • @Jekshimash I totally disagree

  • Check out this new product that will protect your front door from being kicked open. The great thing about it is, it works when you leave home as well. Its called the smartdoorjamb.

  • heh. Don't make fun of me but... This car gave me a panic attack because when i was parking on the street a Caddilac Dts in front of me had it's reverse lights on with no one in it. Turns out the guy had just unlocked it.

  • @thecarexpert21 HA! that's funny, i can see how that would give you a fright! i never realized how that design could be confusing like that!

  • @thecarexpert21 I got just as freaked out by an old guy who got out of his Buick with the backup lights on. I thought he'd got out and left it in gear.

  • Is it just me or would a Chevy Impala LTZ be almost the same car?

  • It is a nice car, don't get me wrong. But the style to me is getting a little old for 2011.

  • You'd think that by 2011 they would've gotten rid of separate key and alarm fobs. I mean, all the other new Caddy's have push-button ignition so why not this one, you know? Way to go GM.

  • @oddferkout i agree but push button might be too complicated for the average florida driver

  • I like the colour, but don't like the style of this car. I prefer the CTS. The 2011 Ford Focus Titanium series Hatchback has a better interior than this car.

  • A FOUR-speed automatic?  Really Cadillac? REALLY?

  • Obama

  • The Mercedes Benz W140 S Class was one of the most over-engineered cars of it's time. This Cadillac DTS is one of the most under-engineered cars of it's time.

  • Isn't Obama's Limo a DTS?

  • @ThisIsBillyH its just the shell, its got a diesel engine, and 450hp and 800lb ft of torque

  • Comment removed

  • @ThisIsBillyH I believe so,as is Biden Limo as well.

  • Hey can you do a video on all the up coming vehicles of importance for 2012-2013 Just stating which are definitely coming out such as , 2013 Ford Taurus, 2012 Malibu, 2012 GMC Sierra All -Terrain, and Cadillac XTS. Some of those may or may not be coming out but if you could keep us updated on those that would be another step in your arsenal of car industry footage.

  • My grandpa would love this car. OH wait, he has one... >_<

  • why would someone by a 2011 that looks like it was made a decade ago?

  • I'm gona add this to my collection

  • Tis car seems like a 2005 to me

  • 4 speed Auto? Isn't this 2011?

  • You should do the cts.. I love that car..

  • @DannyMilllionaire I have several vids on it, especially the coupe and V model

  • I just did a video on this one!

  • nice

  • the end of an era....sad to see this thing go

  • @ratmtbola 100% right bro I don't hate it but you are right honestly for the same cash id buy a loaded Hyundai Genesis 4.6 lol especially the 2012 model with the new lights :)

  • What an avesome car DTS  used to be! I guess, since 2011 American - style sedans will disappear, then, GMT900 wil be replaced by something like Epsylon platform and in the end we all wil drive small two-door hatchbacks with one cylinder 0.1 liter torbo&eco - boost diesel engine&a big battery instead of rear sitting((

  • Is it bad if I didn't read the title & when the vid popped up I thought it was a 2004, GM needs to pick up the speed with this one.

  • 15 city 25 highway.... damn you'd be starving with that here in europe... a galon is approx. 7 dollars here

  • General Motors needs to pick it up, this isn't the 90's anymore.

  • Would you do a Jaguar xj from 2004-2006? please.

  • some of the styling even comes from chevy like the knobs for the climate controls the radio and the compartment for the cup holders and evern the beep when you open the door...

  • no more DTS+no more Crown Vic = no more american style

  • @yebu123 Still have the charger with a Hemi!

  • @yebu123 I am going to miss the Panther body Fords more than the DTS, to me Cadillac died in 1996 when the stopped making the big body RWD Fleetwood. We have built those Crowns/Marquis here in Ontario, Canada for over 30 years now, its a somber time, they were, and always will be true luxury and reliable cars. The last full body on frame, RWD V8 powered cars to rip up the roads....along side the Town Car witch was moved from the Wixom plant to here in 2009. They are becoming true collectors now

  • @yebu123 Don't worry I have hope the new Chrysler 300C will replace these cars very well.

  • @yebu123 True, but we still have the Chrysler 300C and Dodge Charger.

  • @Beatlesfangoogle Yippee cars built in Canaduh *thumbs down*.

  • @yebu123 Your saying Cadillac is going to discontinue there DTS?!?!!??! ARE THEY F**KING OUT OF THERE DAM MINDS?! Cadillac's DTS is the Classic of Cadillac! WHY?!?!?! WHY??!!?!?! DTS IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU GM?!

  • @joewillgo Yes It is going to be discontinued soon. But worry no more mate, the XTS is coming as a replacement. 

  • @joewillgo

    slow sales. They're simply not selling enough.

  • Interior is fine,but exterior is awful.For a car expensive as this shud have Push Button Start/Stop.

    The competition for luxury car is very tight and in that case cadillac DTS is no match to its rivals.

    They shud have taken CTS body and stretch it a bit.

    Bad Bad product from GM.

  • Laziest exterior designer EVER! :O

  • 2011 is also the last year Ford is making the Crown Victoria, Grand Marquis (already discontinued with end of Mercury), and Lincoln Town Car.

    It's really unfortunate, the Crown Vic makes is great for police and taxi use, and the Town Car is great for limousines.

    So long, Ford Panther :(

  • @sonic3243 and te last car to have a body on frame ?

  • @randomrazr yeah, a lot of things about this series of car were right. the only con to driving a Panther is the terrible fuel economy (which could have been ironed out if they optimized it), kinda slow, and feels like a boat. Actually, it IS a boat :)

  • @sonic3243 yeah they already canned the workforce of more than 1300 in st thomas ontario, one of the plant workers got hired at the rails where I work, its very sad 1300 more out of fulltime work, we are all fucked in the next 10 years.

  • @sonic3243 Ford is still coming out with Crown Vic's for Taxi Businesses. Just not for police departments. So no more Crown Vic Interceptors. But that does suck, Crown Vic is a great interceptor! That's for sure! it's a classic!

  • @joewillgo on the Ford Fleet site, the Crown Vic is still available for police departments (2010 got new VINs, no more P71, it's P7B). As for taxi businesses, it's the same. They have vinyl seats in both the front and rear (vinyl ftw lol), and an extra 6 inches rear legroom.

    Crown Vic is available to govt and rental and taxi, the Town Car is great for limo conversions.

  • the limit of most horsepower for front wheel drive is 220!

  • 4 speed...? in 2011...? In a Cadillac...?

  • thats 2011?

  • Oh my, this is 2011? I thought this was like 90's or something. this is crazy..

  • Where's the telescoping wheel and USB input on the stereo for a car in its class and price range? The interior is so light on so many new cars I'm sure they'll look like crap in a month or two.

  • Haha it's a dressed up impala lol the last 2 to use 4speeds in 2011!!!!

  • The DTS is a joke. Look at the 2011 CTS-V Coupe.  Really cool and rear wheel drive. Worthy of the Cadillac name.

  • what is that fin on roof for?

  • @zacs214 it's the radio and Onstar anntenae

  • this car is like been keeping from 96 and they just got to release it on 2011 but without change or check anything..2011 car with no lcd touch screen sat nav,dashboard kinda old..what kind of people would buy this.

  • @tyreez10 elderly people lol, this car is more appealing to the older folks because its still simple, someone who's in their 60's and 70's are not going to fumble with some touchscreen.

  • @scfunnyehlol you got your point dude,,and yeah its true

  • ...4speed...???

  • Where do you work? You have a really nice Hyundai

  • I love your saabs! Please make videos about saabs!!

  • Luxury Edition? Looks cheap and plasticy on the inside

  • Man ur vids are awsome

  • Cadillac needs to learn from the Germans and build a large flagship car with rear drive with a v8 and v12 engines and the xts doesn't cut it.

  • So this is what GM did with this Cadillac.....

  • just saying, the exterior looks really 90's

  • GM is kidding with this car, The interior is fucking ugly and does not even compare with other cars in this class.

  • wow this car is soooo old school tech....4 speed auto...and a v8 only putting down 275hp 295 tq...my accord puts down 271hp and 250tq and its a 3.5L V6 not a 4.6....this things is old school and not in a good way

  • a four speed on a luxury car yet alone a 2011? what the fuck?

  • Best known as a hearse version..... just saying

  • The Deville/DTS has always been one of my favorite cars and my favorite Cadillac. The CTS is nice, but the DTS is the real Cadillac!!!! It's a shame that it's going away along with the STS. That trunk is huge!!!!

  • @impaladave77 who said its going away?

  • v8 fwd = lots of lock down the parking brake and massive fwd burnouts

  • It's a shame cadiallac doesn't advertise these at all instead they advertised the srx which they finally are stopping production of

  • Down To Suck?

  • Love these cars. run a chauffeur service and bought a top of the line 2007 for $20K, only 26,000 miles. Amazing how fast they lose their value, but they r nicer than any foreign lux car, but id rather have the towncar

  • @crappyconstruction this is a dumb questin but whats a chauffeur service lol

  • @randomrazr

    Well my boss owns a boatyard, and we run a service to drive people from our yard/office to the harbor. That way they can park by us and get a ride, or they can get picked up at home and taken to their boat.

  • And for the record the DTS isnt a horrible car, its just underengineered and reaks of pre bankruptcy GM

  • @Bflakes30 so true...

  • I mean it's using the old style GM Impala cluster/steering wheel, a 2011 cadillac with no keyless start??

  • This is the 'luxury collection'? more like the ripoff collection

  • I may consider Buick GM's premier motor works......??? Compare all the Buicks Vs the Cadillacs. 

  • what the heck are those tires 195's??? lol there thin for a car that big.

  • cadillac, if u want old people to stop buying your cars, stop making cars for old people.

  • Thank you for sharing Kyle. Sadly, the last DTS rolled off the line this week and the Northstar V8 was discontinued this week too. This era of this kind of Cadillac is over. Lets have hope for the up coming XTS.

  • The rear of the car looks arse!

  • and 275 HP out of a V8???? a turbocharged 4 cylinder puts out better numbers than that..... wow

  • 2011 and doesnt have push-button ignition, and a 4 speed transmission???

  • @datpimpinboy Push button ignitions are purely a gimmick.

  • @paintedd gimmick or not, if i pay this much for a car, i expect to have it.

  • @datpimpinboy Why? I mean, sure it's cool and all, but down the road it will cause far more problems then solutions. A normal key is far more reliable. To each his own though.

  • @paintedd Yup, you said it. To each his own

  • Four speed transmission!!!!!!! pfffff

  • I love these! Great video Kyle!

  • The turn signal sounds and the warning chimes are identical to the 2010 Chevy Cobalt... Personally, I wouldn't want to buy a Cadillac that sounds like a Chevy, just sayin'.

  • @2010jakem Cadillac is made by Chevy (GM). That's why they sound the same

  • @TheMacbooksRock15 Oh, I know, I'm just saying, I'd hope that Cadillac would try and follow through on the upscale image they want to portray and try and break away from the standard GM product. Like down to the last details and stuff.

  • @2010jakem Yeah. I agree with you. They need to make their interior quality on all vehicles better, especially the Caddies and the GMC Denali lines and have a nice division between Caddy and GMC/Chevy, etc..

  • @2010jakem you'd think they'd learn from the Cimarron, but no.

  • @SilentServiceCode (shudders) that thing was a total nightmare >.<

  • A V8 and front wheel should never be on the same car

  • @guitarlover4893 whats wrong with front wheel?

  • @guitarlover4893 and a 4 speed auto...

  • @guitarlover4893 a fullsize caddy and fwd should never meet
