Review

My search for a leftover 2007 STS V8 took some effort but it was definitely worth it. I prefer the 2007 grill to the more enhanced 2008 version - clearly a matter of taste. Previous car was a 2000 E320. I would say that the STS is in another league in terms of overall refinement. The interior is absolutely beautiful - particularly in Cashmire. I have not taken the time to figure out the navigation system but all other controls are user friendly. The quality of materials is on par or superior to the Mercedes. Aside from a Corvette, this is the best American car on the road today!

Favorite Features

The interior is absolutely beautiful - ride and handling are outstanding. In my view, this is as good as it gets!

Suggested Improvements

More interior storage and a 25 gallon gas tank would be appreciated. Also, the ability to select options individually as opposed to packages would be preferred.

2nd STS for me, and I love my '07!!

Review

This is my 2nd STS. I expected a lot of my new '07 STS and have been very pleased so far! Cars I considered before buying my STS - all very nice but either too small or offered less value: 1. Acura TL and RL 2. Lexus GS and IS 3. Infinity M35 4. Subaru Tribeca 5. Audi A6 6. Mercedes E Class 7. BMW 5 Series 8. Volvo S70 The '07 STS handles like a sports car with luxury feel; exacly what I was looking for! It's quick for a V6 - I test drove the V6 and V8, and there was not a huge difference to justify the incremental cost. I looked at a bunch of cars, and the STS, in my opinion, gave me by far the best bang for the buck (see favorite features below) Very pleased so far!

Favorite Features

1. Handles like a sports car with luxury feel! Quite and smooth 2. Quick for a V6 (my old STS is a V8, and the 6 feels as powerful) 3. Ventilated seats 4. Regular gas 5. Keyless start 6. Comfortable seats 7. Very sporty look 8. Heated steering wheel

Suggested Improvements

1. Small glove box 2. Small trunk 3. Navigation buttons confusing 4. Blue tooth phone can't be dialed with car in motion (could be voice activated) 5. Provide better summary information for bluetooth, home link, navigation, XM radio

Car is an automotive winner. She blows the doors off the Mercedes Benz E class, the Infinity M35, or the 535 series BMW. in both performance and and good looks. Full featured for far less.

Favorite Features

Air conditioned seats

Suggested Improvements

Add a back up camera and movable headlights standard

From BMW to Cadillac

Written by: beamerman on 03/16/2007

2007 Cadillac STS 4dr Sedan (3.6L 6cyl 5A)

Review

I am 60 years old and a car nut. I have owned 5 BMW cars and a friend said to drive the STS. I have not owned or leased an American car for 40 years. I drove this car and fell in love with it. I received an abundance of rebates and leased this car for 36 months with only paying taxes for 420.00/month. GM sent me a 2000.00 off certificate as well. The car handles smoothly, I can feel the road. The V6 is plenty powerful and I didn't lease based on the $46,000 MSRP. The car is tight, beautifully equipped and rides like a dream. I have OnStar, my own voice activated phone etc. If GM could get people to drive this car they would buy it. Kudos to General Motors for getting their act together.

Favorite Features

The ride comfort, power, OnStar, satellite radio and beautiful interior. I love everything about this car.

Suggested Improvements

I can not think of a thing.

Northstar Gas Mileage on "6" is Good

Vehicle

2007 Cadillac STS 4dr Sedan (3.6L 6cyl 5A)

Review

The STS has won us over. For the price, looks, convenience, build quality, gas mileage, we are extremely pleased with this machine.

Favorite Features

We love the easy computer touchscreen for the radio and navigation. The keyless entry is super. Its handling and power are shocking for a six cylinder coming from GM/Cadillac.

Suggested Improvements

The glove box is tiny, make it bigger. There is nothing else we don't love about this car.

My STS rocks!

Review

I've enjoyed owning my Cadillac STS - I can sum up my experience like this: reliable, luxury, solid, head-turning, quiet, smooth, f-a-s-t!, beautiful, graceful, turns on a dime, great stability and best of all, my 6'6" husband fits comfortably....

Favorite Features

I enjoy the comfort of the heated adjustable seats. I can set my seat to my specs. The stereo is awesome. The Bose speakers are, too. There are too many luxurious features to mention in this space.

Suggested Improvements

Honestly can think of any.

Tough to Beat

2007 Cadillac STS 4dr Sedan (3.6L 6cyl 5A)

Review

I just leased a 2007 Cadillac STS V6 all wheel drive. This car is a blend of performance, luxury, and technology. With the V6 you have enough power and all wheel drive should give me great control in the winter. This is not your Father's Cadilliac. It has a smooth ride with enough power to keep your attention. The interior is luxurious. I chose this car over the BMW 5 series, E350 Benz, Lexus GS, and Infiniti M45. I chose the STS because its luxury, performance, and lease incentives. The sticker was $52,000 and I leased it for $612 a month with nothing down. This car competes with the others in its class too. When I look at the US cars most of them are not worthy to compete in this class. The STS is. This is the new Caddy!

Favorite Features

My favorite thing about this car would have to be the smooth ride with the sporty handling. The navigation systemis good, yet complicated. I like the dual exhaust, remote Start, and air/heated seats. Keyless start is very cool. I shopped for a entire year before I made my choice on the STS.

Suggested Improvements

Give it a better trunk. The trunk lid feels very cheap. The voice recognition is unusable. The glove box is way too small. The car need a bit more room in the cabin. If you are over 6'1" it would be too tight. Gie it a bigger back seat. It should get better gas mileage. It is getting 15.4 mpg city, when a V6 should get 20 mpg.

My Daily Driver of Choice

2007 Cadillac STS Luxury 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 6A)

Review

I've owned an Audi, a BMW, and a Lexus. None of those satisfy me like the STS Northstar. It has lots of power, the best handling sedan I've driven, PERFECT Audio by Bose, great engine tone, and luxurious appointments. I drive nearly 80 miles every day so comfort and fun are important to me. None of my previous luxury cars have held up well. My Corvette is still my weekend car though. I am thrilled with this car, but when the time comes, I'd love to get an XLR-V (yeah, I just need to save for 2 years :-D). I suggest you stop looking after Cadillac. No BMW, Audi, or Lexus will compare, and I have experience with them all.

Favorite Features

The Bose 14 speaker audio, Northstar V8, Headlamps, A/C, clean looking guages are so, and beautiful leather and wood trim.

Suggested Improvements

Give it more front passenger leg room (the glove box is huge. My only found flaw)

STS much better than 2006 S Class Benz

Written by: Jeremy Trynor on 10/13/2006

Vehicle

2007 Cadillac STS 4dr Sedan (3.6L 6cyl 5A)

Review

This car is 30 grand cheaper than Mercedes and absolutely runs better. You don't have a service engine light come on everyday like the German vehicles. The 6 cylinder is nailing 19.7 mpg combined hard driving, and is extremely quick off the line and very quiet. We truly cannot believe how much we enjoy this car. Seats, performance, Bose Audio and Wood grain are above expectations.

Favorite Features

Keyless start, video "dvd" player display console, with xm radio. Excellent power and braking. Honestly much better than our last mercedes. I won't even comment on the BMW 7 series debacle we endured, electronic nightmare. Cadillac is incredible after horrendous BMW. 87 octane is a plus

Suggested Improvements

Power close doors and trunk. Otherwise perfect vehicle. GM can be very proud.

Review

The 2007 Cadillac STS is a wonderful car. I see lots of reviews. Until retirement I was a damage appraiser. I know what's underneath and this car is just head and shoulders above the imports.

Favorite Features

The navigation system and self adjusting shocks.

Suggested Improvements

Give it a brighter grille.
