AWD Cadillac STS??

Was reading through a magazine and they mention the 2005 Caddy STS will have a 320HP V8 and AWD not to mention a 15 speaker Bose surround sound system.

I've wondered if the SVX would have these specs if it was still in production today.

The 2005 Caddy STS already runs 0-60 in 5.8 secs in rwd. With awd, it'll launch off the line like a beast with that powerful V8 engine...

I kinda like the design of the new Caddy's. The CTS-V really is something special and I've seen them run 12.6-12.9 secs in the 1/4 at the track bone stock. One guy who was racing his CTS-V had the license plate that read: "1BADCADI"!!!

Chris, you are thinking of Buick's demographics!!!! Caddy's is going down with the Escalade and CTS/STS/SRX, not to mention the XLR. 30 year olds might actually look hard at one. Well to do 30 year olds!

Those Cadillac Escalades are a favorite among the young and wealthy crowd! Michael Phelps has one with huge 'spinner' wheels.
