For a 2002 cadillac STS
It has NAVI
It's Diamond White Pearl
with the cream seats
factory chrome wheels( I will have to replace the 17's with dubs)
the car has 20K(mi)
and they are asking 29,000

what do you think???

(I have gone through 5 tranny's and I'm sick of waiting for the car to downshift to first when I am going 50mph!!!!

 

The STS can be had for $25K - 28K. It's a very nice car as is the Eldorado Touring Coupe. It's almost as fast as a bone stock CL-S too plus the engine makes its power over a broad part of the rpm range unlike a peaky VTEC. The leather, wood, and interior accoutrements are vastly superior (much better than those of thr RL too).

Unfortunately Amercan cars depreciate quickly. After 3 or 4 years the Acuras resale value will be higher. But I can say that Caddy's last a very long time. Plus the Caddy has a tranny that works. And as far as gimmicks go nightvision trumps dvd based navigation any day of the week. Congratulations!

BTW: How many miles have you driven your CL-S? Five trannies is a lot!

 

I haven't gotten it yet and 29K is the asking price, my CL-S has 83,000 miles, and yes I am on my 5th tranny.

I think I can get them to knock a few thousand off the caddy. How much should I offer them? It is fully loaded with the Navigation

 

this could be why you've gone through 5 trannies.

 

It's still a Caddy...yuck. The only person I know that would be seen in one is my grandmother, and she admits it's really for the name.

 

Haven't you heard of the sudden downshifting?? Flashing D5??
Downshifting to first going 50mph???

 

aha, now i got you.

The STS is a nice ride. Even more "boaty" then ours if yiu can believe it. That GM navi system your gonna get isn't gonna be that good however. Overall it is a great roomy car.

 

Keep in mind that the STS (and ETC) are FWD; and at 300hp, they're the most powerful FWD production cars on the market. Like Speedy posted, you can find a number of them for between $25G-28G. Keeping in mind that those cars cost >$50G MSRP new, they depreciate faster than just about ANY other production car. But they are sweet.

 

Not my cup of tea... I could find other cars I'd rather be in for that price. If I was about 30 years older a Caddy may appeal to me... but it would still be a stretch.

As for the tranny thing... 5 tranny's? You should have a lawyer and be filing for a lemon law. That way you get the money for your CL back.

 

yuck


get the last gen q45 those are very solid cars and very comfortable

 

just make sure ..u find a reasonable price on the STS
and the good trade in price on your cls too

 

yup yup yop....he should of done that 2 trannys ago

 

steering wheel is like water, it glides
