all4tribal1414779019 Posted December 25 Report Share Posted December 25 Was reading an article on Motor trend where they were doing a comparison on different new vehicles. That line was used to describe a 2005-2006 Cadillac STS model, it goes as follows."Tap the dash, run your fingers along the edge of the console or door armrests, push on the floppy plastic covers inside the engine compartment or the cardboard-like trim inside the trunk, and the car shouts lowest-cost supplier, not standard of the world."this is 40k "luxury" vehicle.http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/sedan/112_0503_luxury_sport_comparison/2005_cadillac_sts.htmlgreat article.ps...i've driven just about every new domestic car that i thought it would be interesting to drive from a 2006 mustang gt 5 spd, 2005 GTO auto, 2006 C6 Vette auto, 2005 CTS-V 6 spd, and a few others. I must say its 2007 and nothing has really changed other than displacement which is the "muscle big" motto for american cars. My conclusion after driving all these cars is im not impressed, to me domestics still don't surpass japs and euros when it comes to build quality and refinement. Not sure why people are still standing by them. Only thing comes to my mind is pure ignorance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pod Posted December 25 Report Share Posted December 25 Who cares? You'll still be stuck in traffic anyway or get carjacked in Overtown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time, hit up some Euro & Jap dealerships for some real fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pod Posted December 25 Report Share Posted December 25 Yeah, going 5 MPH is fun. I'd rather walk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest michael^heaven Posted December 26 Report Share Posted December 26 Yeah, going 5 MPH is fun. I'd rather walk. One of the many reasons that I don't live in Miami. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
