The Northstar is a pos, just do a little reading on one and all of a sudden the 3.5L 603 looks like a decent enough engine! 
Caddy does make decent cars now, but IMHO anyone built before 2005 is a POS. |
I agree that the northstar is trash. I have been behind a pretty new caddilac on several occasions with the stupid "Northstar V8" emblem on them, what happened when they took off from the light? BIG cloud of blue exhaust. They must be just as junky as the V8's in the ford crown victorias and lincoln towncars, I see those blowing blue all the time too, even newer ones!  Then I pull up behind a 420SEL or 560SEL etc...no blue when they take off. Amazing. Probably over 150-200k on most of those by now too.
