2006 Cadillac STS-V Preview summaryImage

The STS-V made a flashy debut in 2006 as Cadillac's answer to foreign sports sedans. This new model comes in one base trim and sports a 4.4 L, 469 hp V8 powertrain with 6 speed automatic transmission. With 4 doors and seating for 5, the STS-V can carry around a small family in style.

Fuel consumption amounts to 14 mpg in the city and 20 on the highway. The STS-V has a long list of standard features that includes sunroof, power windows, power door locks, power/leather seats, cd player, navigation system, ABS brakes, traction control, and stability control. Cargo space comes out to 13.8 cubic feet.

Overall, the industry likes what the STS-V has to offer. The powerful V8 and smooth handling make the STS-V an intriguing choice. On the other hand, interior materials could use some work. While the STS-V gives Americans a solid domestic option for a luxury sedan, it still has a little work to do before it matches its German counterparts.

After saving here and there since 1999, I bought this car in 2014 as it was turning 8 years old and had just under 50K miles. I fully intend for this car to remain my Fast Friday Sedan and garage it on all other occasions...this is MY SLAY'D V...Apr 21, 2015
