Caddy interiors are horrible. Not on par with any other brand at that price point. They have a long way to go. Some of the materials in the 300 could be better, but at least it looks clean and is functional.

There is no way I could bash the STS-V in any way. It is probably the only car I would take over a C or SRT-8. Unfortunately, I cannot afford to put 70K down on a car, but if price was not an option I would take the STS-V in a heartbeat. Anyway I guess I am stuck with my lowly C.

As for the interior, I think its beautiful. I can't wait to see one in person...

The STS-V is interior much better than the first CTS-V. It is a hot car, but 70g's hot?.

No question the STS is in our size class, these V series caddys are world class and I would be proud to own one at the price of a C or SRT8. Look how far American car companies have come, the C & V can be respected among the best of the world. That could not be said just a few yrs ago. Remember the Catera with Cindy Crawford and the penguin cruising around to the tune "Born To be alive", how pathetic though Cindy is always a pleasure to look at. Performance b/t the C and Caddys is similar and Chrysler gets my business on price and shizzle.

American cars are on the comeback big time. I had been driving German for years now I have a 300c and a Pacifica for the wife. Prior to that I never owned a Chrysler. There is no doubt caddys are hot, but Chrysler definatley has the value ratio going for it.

She's now powered with a 396 ci(6.5L)/525hp/510 ft/lbs torque LS1 engine "package" - complete with suspension/brake/tire upgrades.
(Same guys who build the V16 motor for Cadillac - ouch!)

That's a lot of go in a little package.

As a one-off at $75,000.00 don't think I'll have one beside me anytime soon.
