  • The perfect family car - 1998 Cadillac Deville
    By -

    I wanted a family car with a powerful engine. I had already done the SUV thing and was not about to drive a minivan. Well, after owning my 1998 Cadillac DeVille for 6 and 1/2 years I still love it. I did add a Chevrolet Corvette to the garage though, just for a little more fun! The Cadillac is super and I highly recommend it. The car still looks and runs like it came off the showroom floor!

  • Great during warranty period - 1998 Cadillac Deville
    By -

    My 1998 Cadillac DeVille has a powerful motor and a quiet, comfortable ride. It provided great performance and reliabillity during the 3yr/36,000 mile warranty period. Mechanically it seems to fall on its face after that. This vehicle received fantastic new car ratings, but seems to lose its resale value rapidly, now we know why. If you want long term reliabillity, buy a Honda.

  • What a Sweet Ride - 1998 Cadillac Deville
    By -

    This car is a the best car I have ever owned. The interior is quality and the back seat doesnt have adults kicking at my back. The Northstar has quite a bit of power and the suspension is nice a cushy. The best car for a highway drive. What else do I have to say, Im now a Caddy man forever.

    This is a wonderful car and very solid. It is unlike many of the newer cars and the light bodies. This is a car you sit in and feel like you are sitting at home in your living room. Lots of get up and go and a general nice feeling, easy to handle car. This is a great automobile. The more miles you put on it, the better it seems to drive and ride.

  • Mom hates it - 1998 Cadillac Deville
    By -

    The car is plain ugly on the exterior. Quality was not of primary concern when designing this car. I also had a headlamp blow off while driving. It cost about $400 to replace it. The keyless enrty fails about as often as it works. I am impressed with the gas mileage and overall its a fairly comfortable car. It drinks oil badly. The dealer says its to be expected. I say FIX IT.

  • No reliability - 1998 Cadillac Deville
    By -

    When most everything starts to wear out after only four years and 60,000 miles you know that you either have a lemon or there is a reliability issue. Brakes are terrible. They wear out too fast--pads and rotors and for four wheel disc they do not stop the vehicle like they should. The engine uses too much oil. Air conditioner, radio antenna, electronic level control, door locks, door window motor, egr valve, and the list goes on and on. We even had the driver side headlight lens blow off while going down the highway.

  • Nice but beware - 1998 Cadillac Deville
    By -

    This is the nicest driving car ever. The motor is more than powerful, and the ride is silent. BUT, General Motors has short warranty periods for a reason. There is a lot that goes wrong in the vehicles midlife, so beware. Check engine lights are common and can be easily cured by a small piece of black tape. If you want a great car for the first 40k miles, this is it. If you want longevity in a car, this isnt it.

  • wonderful experience - 1998 Cadillac Deville
    By -

    I bought this dirty Devill at 107.2K miles. After replacing battery, changing transmission fluid, rear brake, it runs very well. One thing I really want to know is its MAX MPG. It can be more than 26. I have proved 27(highway speed over 70) and 30 (county road, avg speed 50, east bound, no A/C, outside temp 70s, no cruise control). It can turn big angle easily and softly.

  • Just Great - 1998 Cadillac Deville
    By -

    I just love this car. On the open road I cant think of another vehicle that can even comes close. Its almost like sitting at home in that big stuffed chair you love so well.
