    2002 Cadillac DeVille - DTS

    Submitted on 5/5/2002 10:04:48 AM
    Summary

    Pros: Premium stereo package outstanding.

    Cons: Fuel ecconomy not as good as advertised

    Advice: Import luxury cars had classier exteriors not the interior comfort.

    Shopped to replace a 94 Seville SLS with a newer STS... Wife saw the red DTS with spoiler, sun roof, plus other options and we owned it! I think the Seville has nicer exterior styling. The premium radio sound and adjustments are outstanding and beat the Bose premium we had in the 94 Seville. Engine is OK with regular fuel, but definitely has more zip with the mid or premium grades. Comparison cars didn't come close in comfort. .

    2002 Cadillac Seville - STS

    Submitted on 3/6/2002 11:48:59 AM
    Summary

    Pros: Northstar V8

    Cons: Front Door Alignment at Front Fenders (Dealer fixed)

    Advice: Get a Cadillac Certified vehicle

    This car is a quality blend of Performance and Technology. Very comfortable to drive and ride in. I like that Cadillac remembers their reputation for driver and passenger comfort in this vehicle, yet the performance characteristics are on par, or exceed other luxury touring sedans in the market, some of which cost considerably more than the Seville. The NorthStar V8 is an absolutely wonderful machine, and any enthusiast will appreciate the exhaust note under hard acceleration! This engine definitely doesn't sound or act like your grandpa's Cadillac, it's a purebred that's more than willing to get out there and stretch it's legs upon command. Passing, road handling capability, and even evasive manuevers can all be tackled with confidence in this car, without any hesitation. Test drive one, or better yet, rent one for a few days and you'll fall in love just as I did.

    2002 Cadillac DeVille - DTS

    Submitted on 1/10/2002 3:40:28 PM
    Summary

    Pros: Responce and handling

    Cons: Goodyear O.E. tires, I removed them and replaced with Contintentals

    Advice: Drive competing cars,and you will love this one.

    The DTS has plenty of power for anything you want to do. I was in west Texas on a long lonely road this summer, and it will do the 150 that it has on the speedo and more. Great driving car, better than Lexis and BMW. As long as Cadillac makes cars like this, I will never go back to foreign make again!

    2002 Cadillac DeVille - DTS

    Submitted on 12/13/2001 7:04:21 AM
    Summary

    Pros: Driving position and ergonomics.

    Cons: Lack of sunvisor extensions.

    Advice: Learn to use all the features of the vehicle.

    This car was certainly made with the 1950's-1960's muscle car enthusiast in mind. It provides comfort, power, handling, and overall satisfaction of ownership. It has enough interior room to suit a large man. It is not a kiddie toy.
