Review 2 of 63

Price Paid:  $40.00 from Orr Auto

Year / Model Reviewed:
2004 Cadillac SLS Northstar

Summary:
This is a very fine automobile. Floats down the road; fast, too! I cannot find the word, "Cadillac" anywhere on the outside of the car which is strange. It just has the insignia on the back and Northstar in small letters. It does Not vibrate at 60 mph; rides great. This came with the Symmetry tires. It's about as perfect a car as I could hope to own.

Strengths:
I like the sound system, the heated seats, the "beep" when something's behind you when you're backing, the fast pick-up, the smooth as silk ride, the gas mileage and the lumbar "pillow." At 18mpg in town it's a good value for the luxurious ride. I like the way the seatbelts pull out at shoulder level instead of up nearer the ceiling. It is such a pleasure to drive.

Weaknesses:
I do not care for the way you have to install your CD's in a magazine between the front seats. I almost need a magnifying glass to get the job done. It takes some practice to switch from radio to the CD's; I've not mastered that chore yet! Plus, I couldn't find it in the drivers' manual. You are supposed to add a quart of oil every thousand miles, too. Or, you have to. There is a blockage of your view on each end of the windshield which could pose a problem. The horn needs quite a firm push to activate. There is a slight hesitation on the a/c on the fan speeds. I cannot get the windows to go down just halfway.

Review 3 of 63

Price Paid:  $0.00 from low-mileage, used, f

Year / Model Reviewed:
1993 Cadillac Seville STS

Summary:
High-mileage 1993 STS, with the Northstar V8. Great handling even for the age of the vehicle--still gets good pickup and the engine sounds great when you accelerate. This car can MOVE! I have it in a sparkly plum color with a grey interior. If I drive "nice" I can get 27-28MPG highway, which is FANTASTIC for the size of the vehicle and its gigantic engine. This car has needed some maintenance a few times over the past few years, but overall I've been happy. It's got about 130,000 miles on it, and it's itching for more.

Strengths:
Even for an 11-year-old vehicle, the Bose stereo/other toys/widgets/switches are still super-luxe and very slick. One of my favorite things is the headlights--the low beams are very wide and crisp, but the high beams are even bigger.I love the nighttime-adjusting photosensitive rear view mirror. Great for eliminating glare from all those SUVs that have to shine their 18 headlights right at the back of your scalp. I hear they're hard to replace, though. This car has saved my life several times. Big, powerful, fast, gets out of its own way, and is designed for safety and comfort of the driver.

Weaknesses:
The car seems to eat batteries. It's gone through several in the last few years, and while the computerized scanners at the dealership didn't notice any electrical problems, I'm wary of it. Additionally, the fuel pump had to be replaced recently and there were several sensor problems. Also, the traction control is terrible--my dad actually ripped out the antilock/traction fuse because you can't get past a snowdrift if traction is engaged. Difficult to park--there seems to be no turning radius at all. If you corner too tight, the power steering seems to throw up its little hands and give up. Try backing out and pulling in again. The torque steer is a little scary, especially when you find yourself in a situation where you HAVE to accelerate fast (New Jersey traffic.) Other quirks: one of the left turn signal bulbs keeps burning out. I've replaced it at least three times in half a year. Also the cupholders are utterly miserable. The power-close feature on the trunk drives me nuts. Also, the digital display can be hard to read on a sunny day.

Review 4 of 63

Price Paid:  $0.00 from private party

Year / Model Reviewed:
1996 Cadillac SLS

Summary:
Overall incredible value. I purchased the car with 15,000 miles on it from a private party. Has almost all the options.

Strengths:
Overall ride is great. My car has the ultra-soft rode option which is great for long highway rides but hampers handling a bit. Back seat room is WAY more than comparable cars including newer Sevilles/STS.. Now has 54K miles and runs great. Very good looking car.

Weaknesses:
AC Compressor crapped out a few thousand miles ago cost about $400. Engine stopped on occassion when stopped in heavy traffic and teh oil consumption was a minor issue. Still really no problems from 15K miles to 54K.

Similar Products Used:
Taurus, Corvette, Plymouth ,Sundance

Review 5 of 63

Price Paid:  $16500.00 from Repo at Credit Union

Year / Model Reviewed:
1997 Seville STS

Summary:
Have had this car since '00. Had to replace the rear ABS harness ($1200), both trunk taillights ($520), main computer ($1500). Now the upper gear has left me creating a serios gas guzzler. This car has cost me more in 3 years than my 94 Concorde in 10 years. Eats oil at a rate of 1 quart every 730 miles. At a 5000 mile oil change (highway driving only) the resevoir is empty. Synthetic disappears as fast as standard grade oil. It will be my last Cadillac because I refuse to pay the garage visits on a monthly basis. Now I'm looking to wash my hands of this nightmare and find a place to lick my wounds. Pitiful for the American standard. Time to look at a Hyundai, OOOOCH!

Strengths:
Looks, power and gadgets. Ride has been flawless up to recently.

Weaknesses:
Cost to repair, unreliable, depreciation, Northstar eats oil(as designed).

Similar Products Used:
Chrysler Concorde, Chevy Corsica, Ford Taurus and ran them to the ground with well over 100K miles.
