We needed to bring our Cadillac STS to the dealer for service because the computers been spitting out a bunch of errors every time we drive, so they gave us a DTS as a loaner.
It's surprisingly fun for being the quintessential old man car. The northstar V8 is a real beast, and because the cabin is so quiet you'll find yourself going much faster than you expect most of the time. I found myself regularly hitting 50 when I thought I was doing 35-40!
It's hardly a sports car with it's mush suspension, but it's really exciting. It doesn't look all that bad either.
We've had terrible luck with our sts. For the price you expect much more, but it really misses the mark on a lot of things. We got the very first model year though so that is probably a major contributer. It seems they've worked a lot of the kinks out on the 09's though. I might have to rethink them when we trade ours in. The new cts looks pretty sick!
Just thought you'd be interested to know. Does anybody have any comparisons to other models in the price bracket (around 50k, preferably under)? We've never had anything but American cars (Although my dad has an older A4 that he and I both love) and the fact that this land yacht impressed so much leads me to believe we've been missing out.
