Why the 2005 Cadillac STS?

Why Not the 2005 Cadillac STS?

Quietness

My car was quiet when I first bought it, but the wind noise keeps getting louder with age. The dealer replace some front door seals and the problem persist. I have tried different compunds on the seals and the wind noise is still there.

Fuel economy

This car is thirsty. I live in flat country and I get 15 mpg with 80% highway traffic. I only get 19 mpg on trips. It probably needs a 6th speed overdive for the highway.

Depreciation

This vehicle depreciated like a rock before the economy went bad. Now, people want to buy it for way under KBB tradein value and the dealers are worse for trade in.

Safety & braking

The brake pedal is soft and spongy. I can live with it in normal breaking, but a panic break is horrible.
