How about we get some SLS clones up in dis biatch!
My dream is a SLS-V 4 with a stage 3 kit. Why will Cadillac give not give me anything I need. 
I will pay my STS off on Wednesday. I am read to start looking for my next automobile. I hope I am not force to consider 7 series or S class. Please. |
Hi Ben,
I bought my son a 2005 STS in which I drove afew times, has many nice amenities and I like it. But my personal car is a Twin Turbo Mercedes
S600 with a Renntech package (just under 700hp and 800lb torque at 1800 rpm's) You can not compare these against a STS, The S600 way outclasses the STS in all areas. Especially the price. They are really two different cars.
The STS handles better because of its lighter weight, but the Mercedes makes it look like a 3 cyl. Metro Geo in the Get up and Go department and that includes the STS-V.
There are a few pro's and Cons going to and S class/7 series BMW.
After driving a twin Turbo V12, you won't want to drive anything else, I assure you that.
For an all around car, Stick with the Cadillac, unless you're making $150K and up per yer, I say the Mercedes for an everyday car is out of the question.
Just my .02
Good Luck
Bob
