NO RESERVE AUCTION!!! APPEARANCE: Love it or hate it, Cadillac's angular ``Art and Science'' look is definitely its own, inspired by and copying no one else in the auto industry. The SRX, like the CTS, is all crisp angles and slightly-curved planes. It's a muscular but not muscle-bound vehicle, a larger, two-box version of the CTS in looks, with the newest version of the Cadillac vee-shaped egg-crate grille flanked by vertically-stacked faired headlamps in the style of the company's XLR sports car. A strong character line defines each side, and there is no lower cladding. Thin vertical taillights are part of Cadillac heritage, and grace the rear of the vehicle. Cadillac considers the SRX to be the first of a new ``S'' series of vehicles, and as such it is a preview of future styling directions. COMFORT: There is plenty of room inside of the SRX, and good design and attention to detail make the most of it. The styling builds on that of the CTS, with an instrument panel featuring the same textured materials and PC-like center stack. Burled wood trim enhances the doors, dash, and console. Covered compartments in the doors add convenience. The front buckets have very good comfort and support, and are power-adjustable of course, as is just about everything including the pedals. The outboard portions of the rear seat are contoured in a similar way to the front, and are just as comfortable. Leg and head space are at the head of the class. The second row splits 60/40; the cushions tumble forward and the backs fold flat for useful cargo carrying ability. Cadillac is well-known for interesting gadgetry, and the optional third-row seat is the shining example in the SRX. It's tight for adults, but should delight young children. It's power-adjustable - with the touch of a button the back angle can be changed, and another button folds it flat into the floor. If that's not enough, check out the ``UltraView'' full-length sunroof for the view of the sky and scenery above. SAFETY: The Sigma platform used by the 2004 Cadillac SRX is designed for strength and crashworthiness, with a heavily-reinforced structure and safety cage around the passenger compartment. Four- wheel antilock disc brakes are standard, as is the latest version of the ``Stabilitrak'' stability control system. ROADABILITY: With a regular SUV, ``sport'' is what you do when you get to your destination. With the SRX, the sport is in the driving. It is at home anywhere - on the highway, around town, and especially on the sort of twisting secondary roads that are the province of sports cars. Although not light in weight, the SRX is light on its feet. Its eight inches of clearance should be adequate for logging roads, not to mention urban curbs, chuckholes, and road debris. And, despite its high stance, the SRX's weight is carried low. With its rigid chassis, good weight distribution, and sport-tuned independent suspension, the SRX has the road manners of a European sports sedan. The ``Luxury Performance Package,'' includes magnetically-controlled suspension and all- wheel drive. Gild the lily...this improves damping control and traction, with no reduction in comfort. The SRX is as quiet as expected, for low-fatigue touring. PERFORMANCE: The SRX V8 uses the newest version of Cadillac's acclaimed 4.6-liter ``Northstar'' engine, now with variable valve timing to increase power and the spread of useful power. It's shared with Cadillac's flagship XLR luxury-sports roadster, and makes 320 horsepower at 6400 rpm and 315 lb-ft of torque at 4400 rpm. At nearly 4,500 lbs, the AWD SRX is no lightweight, but the Northstar gets it down the road very quickly, with great gobs of power at all engine speeds. The five-speed automatic is smooth in operation and can usually just be left in ``D.'' To play with the sports cars, put the lever in manual mode, drop it into second or third, and enjoy. This is a world-class powertrain. Cadillac SRX, sports car meets crossover sport utility. Sport wins, with plenty of utility as well. It's a win-win situation.
