“And I like it when THE V talks back”. Best comment ever!
Worked for Cadillac for 10yrs and that's my favorite a silver STS-V 🤤🤤
Mine to! A silver STS-V... Great looking cars and the performance is incredible.
But its the northstar motor? 😧
K Stu They worked out the head gasket bolts issues by 2008
K Stu yes. The LC3 in the STS-V was hand built and signed by assembler. It is a northstar. None of the AWD/RWD longitudinally mounted northstars had issues with head gaskets / bolts. Even for the FWD platform 99% of that was solved with 2002 engine with the rest resolved in 04.
@@aquastu Northstar engines are the best!. I have one that has been the least problematic car i've ever owned. I do not believe when people say they are scared of it or other problems that might happen. its all depends on whos maintaining the car and if they know what there doing. The difference with this car and say the xlr is the people that own them are very meticulous abotu proper maintenance and ive never meet anybody in person that didnt love there northstar cadillac.
Man when he puts his foot down that sound just makes me tingle all over
jeremiah Jones bro I’m in Australia 🇦🇺 were not lucky enough to have them or what do count has
jeremiah Jones yeah we have HSV Holden OR FPV Fords but nothing like USA 🇺🇸 I wish we did but
jeremiah Jones nah lol escalades dont have superchargers stock 😂😂
581 RWHP ?!!!!!
In a Cadillac !!!
So it's a fire breathing go fast Machine but driving it is like riding your sofa down the road ?!
Fucking awesome
Count knows how to cruise is style !!
581 ain't shit for Cadillacs. The question is in a sts v. I call bs on that
Cts v v3 has 555rwhp from the factory
Front wheel horsepower iirc.
Christopher Dickinson RWHP = REAR WHEEL horse power
@@SlimSlugga713 Its not though. I owned one 2006 had the exact same thing as him just a full 3.5 inch exhasut with only 2 flomasters the car made with a guy that did not know how to tune thoose very well 508rwhp
I'm a proud owner of an STS-V (black w/ ebony/tango red interior). And also part of the group of families that participate in everything of our rare STS-Vs. This link was just posted in our FB site with very positive response. I've always paused your show every time your V was in the background. I'd take a digital picture of it while screaming for the wife to come in and see. We're a very excitingly proud bunch that loves their zoom machines. Thank you so much for posting an entire episode on our CEO smokin' sexy sleeper sedans. Awesome!
it sounds beautiful. I would love to one day end up with an STS V. i have a 2001 seville STS which im keeping and deeply in love with. Im like danny as were both tall guys except im a little bigger myself and i also want comfort and quietness when cruisin around. Im also happy to see someone like the count here to speak highly of the STS and showcase the car.
I have the same car they look way better the cts v 💯🔥🏎
580 whp?? Maybe with wet nitrous.
Is nobody going to call BS on this?
Danny you are one bad-ass dude !! Anybody that was in to Is bad-ass cars throughout the seventies eighties and nineties can relate to you and you definitely relate to them. Much love and thanks to you. For keeping that time in life alive through your beautiful cars.
I have one just like it, except the interior is black. Amazing car. I have pretty much the same mods on mine as well - intake, tune, custom headers & Borla exhaust. One thing Kount didn't mention is how rare these cars are. They only made 2500 of them in a 4 year run (2006 to 2009) and only 500 or so were made for 2008. Only 96 were made for 2009 so if you ever see one of those, it's a unicorn.
I agree on the wheel size all the way.
There's cars I like and cars I really like.
This car genuinely hits my style perfectly, not a fan of the chrome personally I prefer matte styling but I love the more subtle nature with the styling of this car. It’s funny cause Cadillac made it so aggressive and angular, but these subtle choices you made to stance it a little bit, open spokes, it’s all nicely put together and the engine speaks for itself, more of a sleeper vibe. Absolutely love it.
I've wanted to hear about this car of yours for years! Sweet, sweet V Danny!
The Cadillac STS V is one of the most underrated untalked about performance cars ever I had a 2007 STS V same color that 4.4 l Northstar engine is so buttery smooth and full of torque I can punch myself in the nuts for getting rid of it I was always afraid that it was going to have some big problem that I couldn't afford to fix so I traded it for a Chrysler 300C God I wish I can go back in time beautiful car thanks for showing it
Thanks for sharing boss. Beautiful STS-V
I love the STS
Thank you for sharing your STS-V , one hell of a car man , love what you and your guys do at counts customs , thank you again Danny !
This is a very cool video. Love the V. I also love the sound of the supercharger whine. Thanks Danny.
This car truly redefines the preferences of Danny on the cars, although I love every car of his, the way he describes this one, man I cannot love it more!
I love this channel. Thank you for taking it out for a spin for us. 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
Proud owner of a non v model but the cleanest 2011 sts on the planet. Absolutely agree on the car. I need this car in my life rn.❤
Great car, I feel like it gets overlooked by the cts-v way too much
That's because it's a Northstar vs. the CTS-V having LS. Just much stronger motor maintenance and modability wise in the CTS-V.
Got a 2018 CTS-V and a 2006 STS-V. The CTS-V is obviously a better car and can do 10/10ths. But there is something absolutely charming about the STS-V. I call it a cruise missile. It has an amazing high RPM growls with all that valve train. Plus a bigger supercharger that has nice whine. Factory its quiet with good noise at WoT, but if you want some noise all around throw on a Corsa sport axle back exhaust and the Specter cold air intake with the y pipe and you get the right amount of theater but not sounding like those idiots with gunshots every time they come off throttle. The thing that really holds the STS back is nothing to do with the car itself but just the massive difference in how transmissions were in the 2000s compared to how much better they are in the 2010s.
Saying that it took me 3 years to find my STS-V because so many of them are abused, but if you find a good one they are EXTREMELY reliable (unlike their german counterparts), they still look good, and are unique but not overbearing.
that supercharger whine is awesome
Beautiful car man, always amazed by the quality and taste of your builds!
dude, it's great to see the vehicles going down the road where we can hear them, not just a static look. !!!
It makes me happy to see that someone like the count here, can appreciate one of the last true breed cadillacs like the STS. these are definitely under rated cars. The best pat about them is they are powered by Cadillac which they all should have been. Northstar engines are the best! The supercharger really sounds good. And I love those performance numbers to.
Jake Abernathy “northstar engines are the best”
Andrey Paliy the head gasket problems were resolved by 2008. But were a nightmare in the beginning years.
I'm a car guy who loves performance but I have 3 soft spot for GM and love Caddy.
Damn, I want 1 of these. I’m sure my experience driving to & from work would be so much pleasurable in this caddy. Love that super charger sound.
The cleanest 2008 Cadillac STS v I’ve seen. They are usually just hammered and tore up from the floor up.
Here's mine :)

That baby's all the way uptown done count Style damn it don't get no better!!! 👌✌
Good stuff Danny 👍👌👍👌✌🙏thx for sharing, love your collection of cars.
Sweet ride never seen one before now ... thanks for sharing the details , and the test drive !!!😎🎩🍀🇺🇸😁
You are blessed bro! My kind of car! Luxury and performance. My old body cant take the jarring of a hotrod anymore, but a Cadillac? Oh yeah!
Wish I had time to travel to the shop and check your collection out. One day I hope.... love the cars! Sweet ride Danny
I have a Regular STS and i love it. The stereo and ride comfort are awsome. I have 17 inch factory wheels on mine. 255/45 in the rear and 235/55 in the front. Thats the tier size i run.
Thomas Telling it’s too bad they’re so slow with the standard v8. Loved the look of them but I couldn’t justify spending the money on a v8 that couldn’t even do 0-60 in under 6 seconds. Even the V series stock is relatively slow for such an expensive car
@@fernandog4009 what are you talking about it's zero to 60 is impressive for a car that is 4 to 5 k grand
safebuffalo8907 safebuffalo8907 6k today yes, but I also can’t justify spending a fortune on gas for a car that can’t beat a stock v6 Camry. If a punk kid rolls up next to you in his moms Camry and takes your 8 cylinder sts, that would be pretty shameful my man😂
@@fernandog4009 lmao it does 0-60 in 5.8seconds to 5.6seconds lmao
safebuffalo8907 lol yea that’s pretty slow for a v8 but whatever floats your boat
I’m getting a 2006 soon thanks Count !! Kool ride, can’t Wait.
Much love and respect to the COUNT !!! God bless.
Well done! ... You are right on point with keeping wheels in scale with the car and focusing on performance
These are so underrated.
YOU ROCK DAN-MAN ! Nice stance, outrageous power, great car... :) !
Thank you, Kount......Big 3 for Life 🔥🔥🔥🏆
Thanks for the drive
Very nice and clean Caddy brother! Also great seeing you on CZcams! I have watched all of your episodes on television back in the day! 🤘
I absolutely love this car. My favorite so far. ❤️
Myth started with Counting Cars. I remember they made it seem, Danny only liked classics.
Cool show, thanks for doing this, Danny. Love your taste, not overdone.
Hey Count, I also own a black on black 2008 STS AWD and I love it! The 3.6 V6 has 300 HP and moves out fine. The Bose 15 speaker surround sound system kicks ass and the car rides like a dream. A 2018 CT6 will be next! 😁
Have the same car and feel the same way. Mine has 112,000 miles as of March 2012.
Either your driving and STS-V or your not.
My dream car, ever since my mom had this car when I was 7 years old I’ve loved it!! ❤️😍😍
So clean! Love the supercharger whine!
Aww yeah i love my sts too cant get enough!!!
Always wanted to see one of these cars. Love to see on one on the road.
Looks good! Love my 06 thunder grey sts v. And yes being 6 3 these cars are fun and super comfortable.
That thing is nasty. Love that spoiler on the rear. Nice wheels and engine work.
Not bad for an 11 year old car
I honestly didn't think you liked newer cars but guess that comes from always looking at classics on the show. This car is beautiful and looks amazing goin down the road, suspension setup is perfect 👌
Nice ride Count! Love your show and I dig your style!
Up and down DI. Loving your vids Count. Keep them coming boss man.
I got the privilege to own two of these. Absolutely an amazing car. I miss mine so much..
Wow 2 of them....... I have a silver 2006 and absolutely love so I know what u mean
TOTALLY WICKED AWESOME! LOVE the WAY the SUPERCHARGER TALKS BACK!!
Truly a down to earth extremely talented nice guy who loves Cadillacs! Just subscribed. 😎👍.
Love the 2008 stsv. Damn
got an 06 myself, wouldn't trade it for the world! Sick car man!
Jeese that car is sick , sounds so sweet ... love the V
Hey Danny.
Awesome V!
I have a 2009 STS.
Not as cool as yours but it was ordered with all the extras including 18" wheels and white diamond pearl paint. These cars are head turners. And even with only 302 HP it is a joy to drive. Rock on brother!
That’s what I genuinely LOVE about Fikse wheels: they just know what you need and get it done right! Interesting fact for those that don’t know, they were used by Flying Lizard on their American Le Mans 911 RSR. Also for anyone wondering, yes Fikse wheels are custom as they’re built to your specs and being custom, are not cheap either. A set of these Profil 5’s will cost you nearly $5000 and not including tires.
I have an 06 STS-V black/black with 200,000 miles. All bone stock and looks like brand new still. I love my car for long trips on the highway, very comfortable. They only made 2503 of these cars over a 4 year period. Very under rated vehicle…
Love this! Absolutely beautiful and a beast also! I have an 08 CTS, but wish it was this one!
didn't even realize the made the V on the STS, pretty damn cool. I had a 2006 CTS and it was a nightmare. The CVT trans was shit and I had so many electrical issues with it. I swore after that car I'd never buy another Caddy. They're comfortable and nice looking but that's about it. IDK if things have changed with them in the past 13 years.
Steve Rivera the sts doesn’t fall apart like the early cts models do let alone an sts v. Much better cars.
Like very much when you test drive them. cool sounds
I got a black 08SV and love, love, love, it. These are supercars and the best bang for the buck out there. Thanks for the turn on to D3--will have to give them a call and see if they can do anything for me on the right coast. As you well demonstrated these cares are a very refined BEAST. Thanks and keep the faith.
Gorgeous car, love it. Have considered one before. May just have to lock one in now after seeing yours. Thx for sharing with the crew here.
I luv this. Amazing this car still looks stunning compared to newer/ of the year vehicles
Bro, didja ever think that we would be the "old" dudes? I, like you, am a little more "seasoned" and still love the things I did when I was young...fast cars, fine ladies, and good music...and I feel, as I learned from an "old" dude...youth is wasted on the young...having had this realization while I was young enough to do everything, I did more because I looked past the "rules"...love the V and the rest of your collection...a brother from another mother...lyb...đã wõõķìëë...
Beautiful ride Danny. I like the wheel stance set up.
Gotta love this guy
Awesome Caddy much love from Madisonville Texas!!!!
I remember the day I watched this video about a year and a half ago never knew what an sts-v was but when I seen this I wanted one and finally got one they are really cool cars
ROCK an ROLL man ! Danny reminds me of the bus driver from the simpsons for some reason!! Love you Count God bless
Love that car. Now I've gotta get one.
I have a black 2008 Cadillac STS and it’s amazing I love the feel and look of it!!
Great car count..I still got my 2007 CTS-V..I just hit 52,000 original miles yesterday..There is nothing like driving it..I only get 6 miles to the gallon..but..hey..Love the power of the LS2..while I'm shifting that 6 speed transmission...Cadillac is still doing it in 2022..
Gorgeous car Danny! Rock On!!
Fantastic rock on Danny.
Awesome car buddy love it thanks for sharing buddy it’s one of my favorite cars Love how clean it looks 😎👍👍
Its beautiful!
Love a good sidewall too,
Nice wheel n tire combo
Beautiful! Count!!! Really a keeper!
It’s a beast. Supercharged cars respond so well to tuning and pulley changes.. it hauls .. my sq5 has a blown 6 and it moves.. imagine this thing flies..
Danny, I think those wheels are just fine on that car.
I had one of these. It was one of the best cars I ever had, mad I wrecked it.
I loved mine. Unfortunately transmission was going out and other high mileage issues popping up, miss it terribly.
Thnk s for the nice show I enjoyed the video
I love Cadillac myself
I love cadillac myself
Good afternoon , i dont know if anyone reads these. but i enjoyed this video and seeing the Kounts sts v and how much he enjoys his.
i have an 06 sts v all original but needs a little work but im inspired again after this video and still healing from a back injury but despite that i will sweat threw the pain and start working on her and get what i can done and afford. thanks for the video ...
We love the V. We purchased the 4.6 new, almost 100K to date w very little issue, for us this sedan has been one of the best ever motor vehicles on the road especially in comfort, power and ride. If I had to do it over again I may op for the V. I'll drive this one till it dies and that won't be anytime soon.
Super clean!
Love this car!
Love the ride my brother!!!
I like the sound, I bet the performance is awesome, and it also looks comfortable too.
Best sts-V I've seen .]
SUURWEEEET! Dang Danny that's Cooool as. Cheer's from Tasmania , Australia
I have a 06 sts loaded with all the bells and whistles 320hp plan on making it a classic. Love this car. Suspension with magnetic ride. When you punch it ,it drops down low ,you're doing 100 mph before you know it.
I wish the CTSV had so much talk back from the supercharger....but these things SCREAM
Clean and great taste mods!!
love all your videos Kount !, i cant wait for a video to come out for me to check it out !!!!
LOVE THE WHINE
