My Take: Looks like Caddy inflated the residuals for the STS and kept the MF relatively decent. Ugh…I really can’t say too much about this car. It’s like a boat with wheels, probably drives like one too. Life. Liberty. and the Pursuit….of what? The only Caddy worth it’s metal and rubber is the CTS. That’s about it. Looks like Caddy will be doing some “pursuing” for a while. I’ll take an E-Class any day over the STS…Any given day.
