Considering it involved driving a Cadillac V they only made 2,500 examples of.

Kinja'd!!!

I had to align, test drive, and replace a TPMS sensor on an STS-V for our body shop side today. The car had apparently been hit on the right front.

The supercharged Northstar actually sounded amazing (so much supercharger whine) and could *move* that big sedan no problem at all. Even with 165,000 miles.

I want. I want bad.

They made that few? The owner of the last dealership I worked at had one... personally I didn’t even know Caddy made those in a V.

According to Wikipedia only 2,503 Vs over a 4 year production run.

In like 2012 I saw a woman older than God driving a blacked out one of these and it sounded good. Really good. She knew she was too hot to trot.

As far as I know, a lot of the Northstars weaknesses were fixed by the mid 00s.
