I picked up a 2008 STS 3.6 (Sunset Blue) a few weeks ago as a second car. My primary car is an Audi A4. When I test drove the STS, what impressed me most was the chassis and stiff platform. When you've owned various foreign brands over the last thirty years (Mercedes, Volvo, VW, Audi), you sort of get a feel when a car has an inherently stiff platform, and the STS is right up there with the best of 'em. This made me do some research on the GM Sigma platform, and it appears this is one case where the engineers won out over the bean counters.
For those who catch the metaphor, I'd say that Sigma is GM's W140. :yup: Agree?
Here's a pic of my STS:
