What the Cadillac STS sticker says about fuel
Fuel economy is a legally required block on every Monroney label — city, highway and combined figures plus the estimated annual fuel bill. These are the EPA numbers on file for the STS, latest tested year 2011:
The label also prints an estimated $2,950 a year in fuel at 15,000 miles, and 482 g/mi of CO₂. EPA files the STS under Midsize Cars, which is the class it gets compared against on the sticker.
How the STS's sticker figure changed
Combined MPG printed on the label, model year by model year — 2005 to 2011. Worth checking before you compare a STS sticker from one year with another:
Over that span the combined figure rose by 3 mpg, so an early sticker and a recent one describe noticeably different cars. EPA revised its testing method in 2008, which shifts figures printed before and after that year.

Where to find the VIN on a Cadillac STS
- WindshieldLower-left corner, driver's side, readable from outside without opening anything.
- Door jambOn the driver's door frame of every STS, next to the tyre-pressure and build-date plate.
- DocumentsRegistration, title and insurance card — on a Cadillac STS all three must show the same number.
All four must match. A Cadillac STS whose windshield plate disagrees with the door jamb has either had a panel replaced or a tampered identity — check the paperwork before any money changes hands.
