2006 Cadillac Dts in Plymouth, MI - $0

From its Cadillac signature exterior styling and luxurious interior to its powerful, refined ride characteristics, the large front drive DTS sedan represents the nameplate's best thinking with respect to luxury, safety and convenience technologies.

Buyers can choose to outfit the DTS with one of three sophisticatedly luxurious equipment packages: Luxury Collection, Premium Collection or the top-of-the-line Platinum Collection.

Power for the large Cadillac is produced by the technologically advanced Northstar 4.6L V8 prime mover joined to the Hydra-Matic 4T80 electronically-controlled four-speed automatic transmission. The Northstar engine is available in two configurations: the standard LD8 and the L37. The L37 version is a responsive, higher revving powerplant with more peak horsepower. The LD8 places more emphasis on quick launch and part-throttle response with greater peak torque.

The DTS sedan rides on a body frame integral (BFI) structure, with a direct-mounted, double-isolated front cradle and powertrain mounting system. Control hardware consists of a four-wheel independent suspension system which integrates four-channel anti-lock brakes, traction control, four-channel StabiliTrak vehicle stability system with Brake Assist and Magnetic Ride Control (MRC). The result is a fast reacting suspension which controls body motions to a precise degree.

Inside the cabin occupants are treated to a sophisticated interior that incorporates a clean, sculpted contemporary design featuring genuine materials, fabrics and low-gloss, tactile surfaces. This sophistication extends to rear seat passengers who are not neglected. A cavernous rear seating area accommodates three adults easily. The armrest in the rear seat features fold-out cupholders and bin storage. The wide doors facilitate entry and exit.
