My Cadillac gets me where I need to be.
No problems normal wear and tear. Vehicle runs smoothly with standard service. Runs well on the freeways better than some newer models. Would not sell or trade. Have taken long trips in it and its held up well. Even has a camera up in front of the engine.

Built in factory features of my car.
I have had no problems with my present car. It starts immediately. It gets good fuel economy in both city and on the highway. It is very reliable. I would drive it anywhere I needed to go. I have had it for three years. It has a great radio, power windows, power locks. Tilt wheel, automatic antenna, leather interior, very comfortable seats, extra smooth ride, . Miles to go, gallons used, average miles per gallon, average miles per hour, timer, traction sensor, instant miles per gallon and temperature controlled air conditioner and heater. It has a roomy trunk.

Drives smooths, good ac and heat. Good radio. Low mileage.
Gas tank is huge so changes from empty to full. It takes a long time to heat up. The brakes slip a little. Windshields are not strong. It drives smooth. Oils been change it might need a tune up soon. It's a clean car. Only had one owner. Has less than 100k miles.

Cadillac made great if you get a chance please buy one
Rides like you are on a cloud very smooth, only had problems with the windows not going up or down had to get fixed twice. I think the gas mileage is good on the interstate but not as good in town. Overall I am happy with this car. If I had a choice I would purchase this kind of car again

Classic Cadillac that all will love
My Cadillac has minor issues, it smells like gasoline inside the car, it goes up hills at 30 miles per hour, other than that runs smooth. Has a v8 motor so it can get up and go, it has yet to break down and the car is 19 years old. The car is a luxury car, the shocks have air in them so it feels like you're riding on a cloud, the Cadillac when you open the doors the cadi logo is displayed on the ground, touch screen radio, good A/c, power locks & windows

Love my Cadillac been good to me for 2 years.
Slight recall on the ignition, however was easily resolved by the dealership. Only have had to replace the brakes after many miles. Sensors will go off for slight reasons such as low air in tires, low coolant, ect. I believe my heater coil went out this summer and it will be very hard to get to before this winter. I have had no problems in 2 years I have owned it!

The rims are very good looking.
It needs a paint job, and it has a new engine, tires, ball joints, and new wipers. It also needs inside roof paneling and needs new wiring for the door locks.

CAN BE EXPENSIVE
Just bought it recently, has window problems but fixed cheaply, had to replace water pump expensive and HARD to work on, water coolant low warning comes on constantly, the air conditioner is worst ever made needs lots of maintenance. But has a good ride, comfortable seats, hard to find an explanation for all items. Would recommend for good buy if found cheaply. The horn blows all the time have to remove fuse to stop it..

Comfortable. Smooth. Reliable.
Suitable for 2. Always needs gas, very smooth, runs like a champ. Heated seats classic horn. Radio jamming.
accountCircle Robert L
Too much fancy stuff to break
Old - too many features that break when they get old - windows, door locks, front end, wheels crack, leaks oil, needs head gasket and the list goes on, just don't buy an older Cadillac deville dts, stuff will break weekly, costing more than it's worth
accountCircle Katrina L
It is practical and almost an antique. The gas is expensive, it only takes Premium.
I don't like that it has two doors. When needing maintenance, the parts and labor are expensive. I don't like that the air conditioning doesn't work. I like the smooth drive and size of the trunk.
accountCircle Erica J
She ain't fancy; she ol' reliable.
It is simply a car. It runs well. I got it used, it is 18 years old and still working. Reliable, but by no means fancy or eco friendly.
accountCircle Eda C
I live the look of it the way it drives
It overheats, it is comfortable drives smooth needs a paint job and new tires the buttons for the truck and gas don't work
accountCircle Amanda V
It is good on gas. Strong motor. Reliable.
It is a great care just a little small. As long as you keep on maintenance it will last a long time. Parts are not very expensive either. Good on gas.

It's like driving on a leather cloud, but having to pay a lot for it.
It's a good car, but the gas mileage sucks on it but that's a given, it being a "luxury" car. It has 4 seat warmers, 2 up front and 2 in back. Very spacious, but the leather wares a lot if your not careful with it. If I could change one thing about it, it would definitely be the gas mileage.

It’s worth about $1000. I paid $2500 Two years ago. For a 19-year-old car it’s a pretty decent value.
