This Year's Model Updates:

Cadillac redefines the American luxury car by debuting an all-new Seville that boasts the performance, style, refinement and technological innovation necessary to play ball on a global level.

Pros:
  • Engineered for world markets. Smooth V8 power. Full load of standard equipment. Contemporary styling. Plenty of electronic doo-dads to wow friends and neighbors.
Cons:
  • Still too much evident cost-cutting in terms of materials to rival Japanese luxury cars. Poor retained value history. Plenty of electronic doo-dads to ring up big future repair bills.

  • VERY HAPPY 98 STS OWNER - 1998 Cadillac Seville
    By -

    I have a 98 STS it has abt 70,000 miles I have been very happy with it being my second sts. i owned a 94 sts previously. I love the performance and the handling at 1st was not up to BMW/MB/AUDI standards but I put 20" wheels on it and with 255/35/20 kumho ecsta tires it handles like a dream! I will be buying a 2005 STS when they debut. I drove an 03 with magnaride and that was a revelation! Overall I average 20 mpg which is better than my fiances 330CI and having driven a lot of cars nothing in its class rides as good on big wheels including A6 and 540i

    This 98 STS is the best. Got all the options. Had to look hard for the wood steering wheel and 4 heated seats. I get outstanding MPG on the highway or hot rod V-8 power. Love the Diamond/white paint and comfy interior. Have other fast cars but this one rocks !!!

    This is the best touring sedan Ive owned. It handles great without a punishing ride. The heated seats are a great option especially with leather. You cant beat the Northstar engine for performance but the gas mileage is not that good. Overall its a grea

  • Luxurious/Sporty - 1998 Cadillac Seville
    By -

    I bought a used 98 Seville with only 32,000. I like the way the car handles and the interior. The back could use a little room. I dont like the way the car virbrates because of the tires. A person at the dealership who is in the maintenance department told me the virbration was not bad compared to most Sevilles he has tested. He suggested getting Michelin tires to get much better handling and performance. The manufaturer really needs to work on that desgin flaw. Other than that I love the car.

    By -

    The first car I ever drove was a Cadillac Fleetwood and what I remember most about the vehicle was the ride. It floated along the roads. After owning other foreign and domestic cars, I purchased my first Cadillac, an SLS. While the SLS does not float like the Fleetwood, it is a great ride. This car is very responsive and handles well. Ive not had any problems with the vehicle using more oil than my other vehicle. Even on a long trip, the occupants were comfortable. Buying this car was a good decision.

  • Elegant Yet Sporty - 1998 Cadillac Seville

    This is a departure from the traditional Cadillac look and feel. It drives and accelerates smoothly and comfortably without being dull or sluggish. The 300hp Northstar engine is a gem.

  • Only knock is the alignment - 1998 Cadillac Seville
    By -

    This STS has been the best car Ive owned. The performance in rain or snow has been outstanding. MPG on the highway has been closer to 25. My only negative has been the constant attention required for tire rotation and alignment. The alignment on all four wheels needs review every 90 days during winter and spring months.

    The STS is one of the best automobiles Ive owned. Reliability is excellent, fuel economy is around 27 MPG highway, and comfort is exceptional. The car also handles very well in snow.
