I think the center "stack" in the LS is one of the cleanest looking designs in that era of sports/luxury sedans. The whole dash looks nice. Makes a nice feel from the driver's seat.

pic of an 05 CTS-V. Look at that center stack and how close the "visor" over the gauge cluster comes to the wheel. Claustrophobic compared to an LS.

It's hard to pin down. My LS felt wide open from the driver's seat. I think the low console and flat center dash have something to do with it. The CTS had a center stack and console that felt cockpit like. I don't like that feeling unless in a true sports car. A sedan I want to feel open...

Yeah, I sat in a 2016 CTS and it felt too cramped. Older gens in my price range were even smaller.

Right now, although none are close to me, I'm finding 05-06 LS V8's (I really only want an LSE or an 06) and STS V8 RWD's at very similar prices given similar condition. I have no interest in a V6 in either car and I don't want AWD if I go Caddy. I already have one small, true sports car and...

Getting very close to another car purchase. Having had an 03 LS V8, it's high on my list. However, the 05-07 Caddy STS V8 has crept onto the list as well. But I know virtually nothing about them. Anyone have/had both a Gen2 LS and a Gen1 STS? I know there's 40 more horsies in the Caddy, but...

I guess I should have just Googled it. Here's what they say. "777 is a number commonly associated with good luck and supernatural powers. In Christianity, the number 777 represents holiness in contrast to the number 666, which denotes evil and negative spiritual influence." I'm not sure why...

Gulfport Florida? That would make sense, the car's in Sarasota

Is there some meaning? He posted that close-up in a classified ad for the car like it's important or something.

Saw this on an 06 Limited. Did someone just stick that on there?

My completely unscientific and unproven theory is that when cars get this old, if you find one that seems really nice, it's probably one of the "good" ones. Reliability reputations are built on failure rates, and even the worst don't have 100% failure rates. Some of them are bound to be on the...

Good choice! :Beer

Have you looked thru all the Wisconsin CL's? I've seen a few Gen 2 down around your price range. I would never buy a Gen 1 because I test drove one before buying my 03 and it was like they were two different cars. Saying the Gen 2 is "more refined" is an understatement.

Had an 03 LS V8 5-6 years ago. I liked the car a lot. Had a coil replaced under the TSB and the previous owner had the valve cover gasket dealt with. Now I'm looking at maybe (and I have to emphasis maybe) picking up a really clean 06. Were these issues, and any others, fixed by then? Is...

What I'm saying, is that if you take a part that's beat, and half-ass it, you've made it worse. Now someone has to undo what you did, just to get back to where they were and do it right. As I said in a previous post, if you don't do it right, expect that you've lowered the value, not raised...

You're welcome. Good luck with your sale!

Oh, I brought the receipt with the 07M07 with me to my local dealer. Didn't make a sh*t-bit of difference to them. I'm well aware of the bulletin. I had to explain it to the dealer - twice - to get a bad coil replaced already. They're a bunch of morons.

Not if you gotta strip off the screw up and start over. That makes it worse that they were good wheels to start with. Spray painting crap wheels wouldn't be as big of a sin.

I hate to say this, but someone has to. Asking $600 for wheels painted with a spray can and still showing dings is ridiculous. That's just amateur. $200 maybe. You must be young, cuz no real car guy would ever dream of doing that and then try to sell it for top dollar. We have more respect...

Well, I can check my oil, but even if it is overfilled, the vcg still shouldn't leak. Especially when they were just replaced with the updated ones 6000 miles ago. It is driver's side and right in the middle. I looked awhile back and couldn't see anything. Last Saturday, I ran her hard, got...
