2006 Cadillac STS-V




When you say that Cadillac is putting out a car with a 469 horsepower engine, you would expect it to be in a body made to compete with the Corvette down the road. But when you say that it is just another high powered luxury sedan, it blows your mind away.

The Cadillac STS-V has a new 469hp motor in its front end, which is highest of it's class. Supposedly it is able to beat a Ford Mustang, Porsche 911, and BMW M3, which means good. They might need to move it up a class because of it. The handling is supposed to be a 9.5 out of 10, which means a little sloppy sometimes. Cadillac needed to start putting more power in there vehicles to draw attention to the next generation of car buyers.

The interior of the STS-V looks A+ with an exception of the grey collor wood that every car company is trying to push these days. The GPS it has accents the dash but could use more electronic features in the rear seats, along with maybe a heads up display.

The Exterior of the STS-V looks awesome. With Cadillac's 10 spoke rims, along with a custom looking body kit makes the Cadillac look like a racer off the production line. Is has a little scoop action on the hood which accents the body kit and make the car look mean as well as luxurious. The color of the break rotors aren't that great because it shows the break dust.
The 469hp engine pulling the Corvette like Cadillac is one of a kind. The interior could use a little work, and the exterior looks excellent. With a base price of $79,000, after options, I would say if you have the money, spend it.
