Price is indeed a huge difference. But I only paid $6900 for mine in perfect condition 69k miles. These STSs are no mods, well one of them has an exhaust, and the one with turbo. And the ETC has an exhaust, which we all know is a very small increase in power, especially on these cars. That is about the only mod you can make to these, the turbo charged STS is a very difficult upgrade. You must run a OBDI system instead of a OBDII, which means re-doing the whole fuel system. But other than that all these cars are stock.

Features include, leather, steering wheel controls (onstar, tempature, audio, cruise), intermittent wipers, stablitrack, 10-way + power seats, full-out DIC (anything needs changed, it lets you know, inside button controlled trunk and gas tank, valet lock, memory seats, heated seats, one touch windows, hmm can't think of any more standards I'm sure I'm forgetting a few though.

Sorry about the D-series, I am very illiterate when it comes to imports.

And performance is probally the biggest factor of this car, nothing like riding 140mph and just floating down the interstate And 300hp is there when needed.

first of all, how are a caddy and a civic even comparable? A cadillac is a domestic gas guzzling luxo boat. A civic is a japanese compact created to save fuel. Besides a civic will kill a cadillac in the twisties.

Second of all, what does your cadillac have to do with this thread? LOL e-balling to the max.

Finally, to answer the OPs question - a civic will always be a civic, no matter how it looks.

300hp translates to 240whp after all the drivetrain losses and other stuff. Not bad... but with a curb weight of about 4000lbs... thats not to impressive.. Try running 260-300whp in a 2300lb car Now thats fun....

Berz out.

It's about 280 to the wheels, and this started because I said a Civic with a loud exhaust and bodykit is prey for my Caddy but since I have finished what I needed, I am now done with this forum. If ya'll want to argue more about it feel free to come to the Cadillac Forum www.cadillacforums.com or If you want to argue about some real American Power, or rides 22" or higher come to www.eastcoastryders.com . I hope ya'll remember me when you come up to the light against one Ya'll have a good life, try to not wrap them lil things around a pole, not to safe[].

Time and money?? My friend, my car is 100% stock performance wise. If someone can inform me how to change the bulbs on my mom's Civic, I will then dissapear. And o yea my ****ty Cadillac has standard features that probally just now are coming out on 06 Hondas, if they even have them yet. Not to mention leather seats which isn't even available on Civics.... So, please if you wish to insult my car, find a weak spot and exploit it, just don't toss around words.

Also the D-Series....is that some type of insult to the V-Series? Or do just not know your cars?
Why do u compare a car that start @ 30 grand to a car that start at 14K? I dont think u could even imagine a 30k stock civic .
