Cadillac STS kill

Monday or tuesday I was on my way to work, at a light on Fairmont I aproached a nice looking white Cadillac STS (I think it was the Deville), I've always wanted to race one of those but most people don't race them, he took me at the green, by the time we are doing 50 mph I'm passing him and I give him the thumb up, he waves back and gives me the thumbs up too, we stopped at the next light and we both look at each other saying lets race again, so at the green we both take off like nuts, nice! so by the time we are doing 50 mh I'm in front of him, by the time we are doing 100 mph I'm about 3 or 4 cars ahead of him, I open the sunroof and wave good bye, it was nice to finally race one of those STS's and beat him.

For a 4500 LB car, that car aint slow. 0-60 in the 6s. Not bad. No match for any AMG except the old C43.

I've always liked those cadillacs, except the fact that they are FWD

Really nice dash too! It's electrolumnescent and bright as hell. Plus, it has tons of cool features (radio station presets differ by the remote)

And for 2003 they are going to come with XM Radio (optional), I think that is really cool since it is Radio with CD quality anywhere you go.
