i cared at the time. The car got exceptional gas mileage. 31 mpg at 62 mph vs about 15 with 3.90's. anyone who has to pay for gas cares. I only have an 18 mile trip to work now, or those 2.73's would be staying in the car regardless of ET. I drive the car everywhere I go. The coyote is parked with the battery disconnected.

Why the **** would you want a stsv ? I like the car for a DD but they are not reliable at all. Much better cars out now for the money ?

In his defense, that northstar isn't the same as the ones that blow head gaskets left and right. seen them run decently reliable as long as they're not modded. no real aftermarket for that kinda **** with a STS-V anyway

One of dad's coworkers had an STS-v for a year. Let's just say it was in the shop more than it was driving.

I love caddy's. We currently have two Northstar DeVilles. This makes 4 we have owned. No serious problems from any of them. I have to go by my personal experience with them. I have no intentions of modding a sts-v if I get one.

There is a reason North Star devilles go for less than an older Honda. Because they are unreliable piles of ****.

The mark8 is pretty good besides the valve spring failures. I happen to love that engine boosted. Mark8's block and heads Italian castings. The heads were cast in Dickson tn. I worked at that plant.
