2007 Cadillac STS-V Review Summaries

What reviewers liked most about the Cadillac STS-V:

"The 255 horsepower 3.6 liter STS V-6 starts at $41,220 and averages $45,000 with an option package or two...That's about $5,000 less than last year's base V-8 Seville, which this car replaces."

-- Cars.com

"The front-end styling continues the Cadillac predatory image...The rest of the STS exterior is lean and undramatic, in a business-class sense of efficiency."

-- Cars.com

"Most of the STS's interior features come standard (as one would hope for about $75,000)?"

-- Edmunds.com

"The STS-V is a serious performance machine and should be treated as such...it outclasses the Jaguar S-Type R and makes for a very interesting alternative to the Mercedes E55 AMG."

-- Edmunds.com

"The STS essentially is a stretched version of Cadillac's hot CTS sedan and is arguably the best-looking Cadillac."

-- MSN Autos

What reviewers liked least about the Cadillac STS-V:

"Leg and foot room in the back seat isn't bad once you're in position, but long legs may have to scrunch up to slip between seat base and door opening."

-- Cars.com

"The glove box is so small it's almost unusable?"

-- Cars.com

"...at 13.8 cubic feet, the STS-V's luggage capacity is merely adequate."

-- Edmunds.com

Cadillac STS-V Comparisons:

"...the STS-V's backseat passengers will have plenty of room. Rear legroom trumps that found in the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and even edges out the spacious Lexus LS 430."

-- Edmunds.com

Best one-liner about the Cadillac STS-V:

The new STS has the fit and finish of a well-made, off-the-rack suit. It is a well-coordinated step up from CTS, but it lacks the custom tailoring that is so appealing in...some of the...competitors."

-- Cars.com

"...make no mistake -- this is not a lumpy Cadillac of yore and it's fully competent in matching or exceeding the skills of most drivers."

-- Edmunds.com
