Is there some good recording of interior and exterior stock sound of the Northstar V8 STS? I was searching for some and as usual with STS, results were too few and too unsatisfactory

Because the cars in which the Northstar was installed were primarily upscale sedans and coupes, built to appeal to a broad market, the exhaust note of ALL of them - stock - is ............ most unobtrusive.

STS - and you have no Cadillac - do you want a recording of the FWD Seville Touring Sedan or the later RWD STS ??? Two very, very different cars. (and the exhaust note of a later STS is quite different from the later STS-V.)

if you like the sound of the northstar
a 2001-2003 Aurora V8 will give you that
It was "tuned :louder than the Cadillac's

I actually owned both at the same time...and the Aurora had more of that traditional V8 "growl"

per haps because Olds was supposed to be the import fighter got GM
