sts-v?
Been looking at possibly getting an sts-v, just wondering if anybody has had any experience with them and can give me some opinions, I'm looking at like 05-06 models and I've been finding them all day for less than 20k with decent mileage on them.

Never heard of those. Wikipedia says they run 13.1 stock. Not too bad for a 4200+lb car.

Before I got the G8 gt I was trying to get one. But no one wanted to budge on pricing.
Plus, I have never herd anyone praising the Northstar, supercharged or not. So I got the G8. Also, iirc, mod's are super pricey and few and far between....the pulley/tune was something like 2k? |

I bought mine in 2010 and it was 22k, 07, 48k miles, with custom stereo system, all options (rear dvd with wireless headphones). If you want me to find one for you sub 24k I can with decent-ish miles. Keep in mind they are tanks....no major issues.... I can say I sold mine to Rick Hendrick for 26.5k and they tried to sell it at the other Rick Hendrick Jeep for 33k. I laughed..... |
