At West Herr Cadillac, we know that when Buffalo shoppers drive home in a 2011 Cadillac, they won’t be regretting their decision.

The Cadillac brand ranked among the top 10 in the industry in initial quality ratings, according to the Initial Quality Study (IQS) from J.D. Power and Associates.

This high ranking means that in the first few months of ownerships, Cadillac drivers are satisfied with their new 2011 vehicles. And according to the experts at J.D. Power, initial quality is a good gauge of how drivers will feel about their vehicles long term, and Cadillac drivers stay satisfied long after driving away from the lot.

IQS results are based on responses from more than 73,000 drivers—purchasers and lessees—of new 2011 model year vehicles. The surveys are administered after 90 days of ownership, and contain 28 questions for drivers. Study results are used by manufacturers, like Cadillac, to design and build models in the future that are more geared towards our drivers needs.

2011 Lineup at Cadillac Dealer serving Buffalo

A stellar lineup of quality Cadillac vehicles, guaranteed to fit your needs, is available now at West Herr Cadillac.

Buffalo shoppers will love our award-winning CTS lineup. The 2011 CTS Coupe was named “Best Coupe” by MotorWeek and a “Top 10” car for 2011 by Popular Mechanics, among other recognitions.

One part of its appeal is the standard direct injected 3.6L V-6 and a six-speed manual. With a revised clutch and dual-mass flywheel, there is better clutch pedal feel and improved engine isolation. Buffalo drivers can also opt for a six-speed automatic transmission with Driver Shift Control.

Either way, the engine delivers 304 horsepower and an EPA-estimated fuel economy of 27 mpg highway. Direct injection technology delivers fuel more precisely to increase the efficiency of combustion, enabling more power while maintaining fuel economy and lowering emissions – including a 25-percent drop in cold-start hydrocarbon emissions.

Another member of our CTS lineup, the 2011 CTS-V Wagon, has also been turning industry heads this year—it received the MSN Auto’s Editor’s Choice award for 2011.

The editors at MSN Autos loved the CTS-V Wagon’s “menacing” supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine. Buffalo Cadillac fans rave that the engine delivers 556 horsepower and 551 lb.-ft of torque. Power is delivered to the rear wheels through either a standard six-speed manual or available six-speed automatic transmission.

Other high-performance features on the CTS-V Wagon at our Cadillac dealership serving Buffalo include standard Magnetic Ride Control, Brembo brakes, and 19-inch forged-aluminum wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires.

But that’s not all—the 2011 CTS-V Wagon can accommodate up to 58 cubic feet of cargo and features several luxury amenities like heated, leather appointed seats. Entertainment and information are available at the driver’s fingertips with an in-dash navigation system complete with a 40-gigabyte hard drive and a Bose 5.1 Cabin Surround audio system.

The CTS lineup isn’t all there is to offer at your prominent Cadillac dealer serving Buffalo; stop in or call 716-652-2600 today to hear more about our other Cadillac cars for sale near Buffalo, or schedule your own test drive.
