HORRIBLE vehicle. Did you know that GM makes $15-20,000 for EACH escalade sold? The automakers laugh at every idiot buying an SUV. SUVs are the only way automakers make bg $$ now...cars don't bring in nearly as much profits. I can't believe anyone would think that piece of shit is worth $90,000. Makes me sick

The Benz thanks, but for 90K, wouldn't you try for the AMG? Or better yet get an M3 and bank some $30,000 plus

Needs more dutty sowf bling and less GMC-style exterior.

Drop it, tint it, better/bigger rims, ice it out, etc.

Ahhh... you don't buy it for MPG!

Mind you, that 500 ft lbs of torque feels nice!

Not trying to say anything about your bro..............but anyone who drops 90K on a Cadillac, either has too much $$$(cribs style) or has some mental issues. You could buy a new one and do all that shit to it for less than 90K.

If I was him, I would buy a new escalade, pimp the shit out of it.........................and still have just enough left over for nice used supra twin turbo.

Either way, hope he enjoys it!!

I bought a Chevy Z71 (Full load with leather and 4x4). Put on an intake, headers, Borla exhaust, supercharger, and some kick ass Toyo boots on Boyd Cottington (sp?) billet rims. All total it was about $40k US. Looks bitching, has about 380 HP / 450 ftlbs of torque at the engine (300 HP at the wheels)..... Makes me happy, and it's fun to race cocky guys in cars (just like my CL... sweet sleeper!)

$90,000? Audi RS6 is a better choice I think.
