Which car would you recommend: Volvo S80 or Cadillac CTS ( both 2003 models)?

Adam D

Rookie
Volvo S80-
Pros:Safe, Reliable, Comfortable, Decent MPG (Low 20's)
Cons:Outdated, Not so much fun, Looks like you will be driving you parents car
Overall: You can get one around $11000, Good Car; If you are in your 50's. The S60 is better. It is not as dated, lNot as arge and more reliable with a respectable fuel economy.

Cadillac CTS
Pros- American Made, Reliable, Good MPG (Round 23MPG) Looks Please Some
Cons: Questionable Fit and Finish and Build Quality, Some think it is ugly, Interior Design Consists of loads of plastic
Overall: Good Car with some flaws that the European competitors don't. You can buy one of these for around $13000.

Bottom Line: The CTS is a better package out of the two. I would recommend taking a look at the Acura TSX or the BMW 3-Series. They tend to be a lot better everywhere, especially the BMW.
