fun to drive, expensive to fix - 1997 Cadillac Catera
By 2000lainey - April 24 - 2:00 amBought the 97 because of the drive and how it holds the road. Love the sport drive, accelerates and holds it. Like the way it looks but the mechanical reliability is iffy. Timing tensioner broke, $3500 fix. Two years later, a 4 day old belt squeal ended as a $600 repair. Has 85000 miles on it and getting rid of it.

Catera, A Nice Preowned Vechicle - 1998 Cadillac Catera
By MikeMann - April 8 - 2:00 amI bought a 98 Catera in 2001. I have always like GM cars and I still do. By far the Catera is probably one of the best handling cars in recent years but I would have never bought this vehicle brand new. I think this is an excellent car for say around 16K. The other reason I chose this car is because in sea audis, bmws, and mercedes, the catera was a breath of fresh air in the entry level sports sedan market.

catera 1998 - 1998 Cadillac Catera
By dwp - March 31 - 2:00 amI like the vehicle except for maintenance is very expensive. I also had a SAFETY incident where the front passanger seat caught on fire contacted GM and they were not willilg to fix it or look into the safety issue I am taking it to an independant dealer will take pick and get an estimate an well have to fight this one in court. My opinion GM as all american car makers lack committment and quality I would never purchase a GM product because of the above.....

98 Catera full of problems - 1998 Cadillac Catera
By noxoc - January 21 - 2:00 amVery disappointed in this vehicle. Expected better quality. Feel like I bought a Yugo instead of a Cadillac. Problems include door hinge straps coming unwelded from door frames, cigarette lighter falling out of console, cup holders broke first time used, stereo speaker covers fall off, coolant leak somewhere near intake manifold, battery goes dead when vehicle sits unused for more than 2 days, wheel jack & tools made from cheap materials - bent into unusable shape used. Poor customer service from Cadillac.

Actually a very good vehicle! - 1998 Cadillac Catera
By nocovberage - December 27 - 2:00 amPurchased this vehicle when it came off a friends lease. I was wise to purchase the vehicle as certified to extend the warranty as the battery has failed twice both covred by warranty, two electrical problems and a cooling problem.
