what does everyone think of the 06 cadillac DTS? it's hard as fuck to find info about them still, not even on the caddy site yet besides a quick overview.. but they got a loaded one at the caddy dealer. seems pretty sweet, little bigger than the STS. it's got a 6.5inch touch screen navigation, but now u can play DVDs on it to, says u gotta have it in park but that can be overpassed which is gonna be badass, i'm still gonna have my movies... I'm thinkin about it...4.6L Northstar V8, 32 valve, 291@5600hp... not the fastest in the world but it'll go when u need it to go

only caddy im super fond of is the cts-v with its big pimpin LS2. i wouldnt even wanna know the sticker on one though

[MexicanGreen]

cts-v can suck on my wang.. looks kinda like it but bigger.. i'm gettin an sts or a dts dno which yet

[Crash]

Personally I dont like anything that caddy makes anymore, Im much more in favor of a sleeker, aerodynamic look

whys that

[MexicanGreen]

well nothin wrong w/ the v i guess cause of the engine, but the regular cts i just dont like, it's so cheaped down people just get them so they can say they have a caddy, they don't have the good options, i think it lowers the standard of the car company when they do sumin like that, but i guess everyone in that car class does that these days...

[Jugador]

oh fuck that i agree, but i think the v is pretty hefty on the price tag

[MexicanGreen]

the v has custom interiors and stuff.. u can get like bright red trims and stuff... but the regular cts that u see on the road 90% of the time is just the regular one thats basically a chevy w/ a caddy symbol

[Jugador]

yeah fuck buying a car for the name, i want a car that is the reason they have a name


oh btw, the v has an LS6, not LS2, my mistake.

The Cadillac Sixteen. THIS is a lookin car

[MexicanGreen]

i could go get a thunderbird or some asian car and mod it all up and everything and get sumin that runs 12seconds but i dont need that shit, i'll kill myself... i want a stock car, w/ options like the dvd player that is pretty fast, tons of cool shit that if it breaks i take it to the dealer for free, not back to the car audio shop where i'll get fucked

[kid_3]

[MexicanGreen]

i gotcha, some people just like having a fast car. personally i'd drive a rustbucket that runs 11's and not give a shit what anyone thought of it cause i know it would be fast. everyone's different.

jug, check out the STS-V.. now thats a car.. 440hp i think it is...

i still might get the sts w/ like 320hp, but i'll have to wait alot longer for an 06, almost sept. its bullshit. so i dno thats why i'm checkin this dts out pretty close..

[MexicanGreen]

xlr is kick fuckin ass to

[MexicanGreen]

BTW, that limo is a presidential style(i think that is the new one they built for bush) which means it has a higher roof on it...

[TheBagman]

damn...what's the pricetag on some of these cars?

[MexicanGreen]

bout 57-65K i'd say depending on a few things.. but those are the extremes both way

[Jugador]

the cts-v starts at 50k, and if i was in the market for a big pimpin caddy with some go, that would be it.

[MexicanGreen]

i'd get a cts-v if i didn't like to sit in my car w/ leg room and look like a homo for spending 50K on a fast chevy just because it has a caddy symbol
