This was our first experience with the V Series Cadillac. We have driven Cadillacs since the late 1970's and fell in love with this car from day one. It is truly a wonderful mix of luxury and performance. The engine provides plenty of power, the suspension makes mountain driving fun, and the brakes are very well matched to the performance. Based on our experience with our STS-V we have owned two CTS-V's. Our first was a 2012 wagon, and our current one is a 2016 sedan. The higher horsepower of the newer cars can be exciting, but also more challenging to drive with both feet flat on the floor! The STS-V with it's 469HP/Torque was much more predictable when you choose to drive like you stole it! If looking for an older luxury sports sedan you won't go wrong with an STS-V. They are truly a joy to drive!

First Cadillac owned. Former buyer of MBZ and BMW's. This STS-V is better than the Euro's at much less cost.

Bought the STS V the first week of December and have taken a couple of 300 mile trips in it. It's very comfortable, powerful and a real pleasure to drive. Positive handling and extremely smooth on the highway. You forget you're driving a big Caddy and think you're in a very fast sports car.

Excessive tire noise

I love the car except head height, and excessive tire noise, The run-flat Pirellis are so loud at 65 mph it is hard to hear the radio or have a conversation without yelling, 100 db of noise!. I plan to take the run- flats off, will need to get a spare wheel and jack though. Cadillac was no help. I asked cooperate for help with this, They said "So sad too bad" :(
