Default Need your thoughts

I need a new daily driver, one that I can get 4 people in comfortably.

I've been looking real hard at a Cadillac STS, a 08 or 09. not the SC version but a V8. Don't want the awd.

Anybody own one and would like to share their opinion.

2 of my buddies have CTSs and they both love them. They are a few years old, and no major issues.

You should ask to move this to Off Topic as its not really a C-6 thread item. btw, CTS looks like a nice car too me.

A car to drive when your not driving your Corvette is pretty much on topic imo.

I drove a 09 CTS and it seemed to me that the V6 was working way to hard. Also it was awd and the trans seemed to be hunting for a gear to stay in. Not crisp shifting at all.
