2008 Cadillac STS Review - BusinessWeek

2008-Cadillac-STS.jpg

A review of the 2008 Cadillac STS sedan has been posted over at BusinessWeek.com 'The STS is often described as a competitor to the hot European and Japanese luxury performance models listed above. But I see it more as an American-style alternative. The STS now comes close to matching BMW, Mercedes, and Lexus in many respects, but its looks and handling retain a distinctively American flavor. Certainly, the STS is speedy enough to be competitive. Even the V-6-equipped version of the car accelerates from zero to 60 mph in around 7.6 seconds—the same as the '08 BMW 528xi, and only half a second slower than the '08 528i. When you punch the gas pedal, the new V-6 in the STS feels like it has the power of a V-8, both from a standing stop and at highway speed. (The STS-V will jump from zero to 60 in under five seconds if sheer speed is a priority.'
