hello all,

i'm thinking about trading in my 05 Cadillac STS for a 05/06 645ci around Sept. or Oct of this year. i have heard about numerous issues with the 745 series as far as the iDrive system and all the electrical problems. how about the 6 series, do the same problems exist? it's a really sharp car but i would hate to have to put the car in the shop every other month.. color wise i'm thinking about the black sapphire with black interior. white is also a possibility with the beige interior. i wish they would offer like a burgandy red color like the color of my STS, below is a picture of it...

The closest you would get is Chiaretto Red Metallic, i say, if you can, do it.

hey thanks, i actually have seen pic's of the 645 in the Chiaretto Red, it looks like it has like an orange tone to it, i like more of a deep, burgandy red.. the black sapphire metallic looks like a very nice color as well as the white..

Just got mine. So far no problems but it has only been a month and I have had a couple of minor "glitches". When you start the car sometimes the radio freezes up, cant hear music. Have to shut car off and on. Also my CD changer jammed once for no reason which was a pain in the ass as the mechanical eject button was behind the face of the changer so I had to remove the whole unit. Anyway, it is a great car, rides beautiful, handles amazing. Supposedly the I-drive is fixed in the newer cars, but who knows. Trunk and rear seats SUCK!!

Death to i-drive!!!! :evil2

how big are the rear seats compared to other cars?

Back seat it tiny. I sat back in it once felt like I was in a closet. It is smaller than the back seat of a camaro.

never been in a camaro hehe
is it smaller than an average sized airplane seat?

Yep, makes airplanes looks big...
