"Throw a set of Blizzaks on one of these Catera's and watch it go. Bought a 98 in 99 new and drove it forever. Averaged 22 mpg, drove through some awful snow storms and sold it 8 years later. Maybe not the fastest german sedan available, but literally a well made car with nice features."

"Ive had my share of garbage cars but this one takes the cake. Do not buy this vehicle. I bought it used with 107k miles. third day i after i bought it ignition pin breaks also notice coolant is slowly leaking somewhere internally. at around 115k miles transmission range sensor goes bad. horn goes off by itself for 30 sec before fuse blows on it. interior lights come on once a month. break lights routinely go on and off. foglights do not work. battery shorts out. hud display goes dead period!-no speedometer, gas meter nothing, but car still runs lol. horribly designed vehicle i would like to meet whoever designed the wiring in this vehicle.....(must be the same person who designed the head gasket) vehicle sold for 200$ after failing in a horrible snowstorm on my way to work one morning. do yourself a big favor do not get this vehicle."

"I got my Catera used and loved every minute I spent in it. I loved the way it would squat down when I put it in gear. The car probably saved my life in a situation when I exited too fast in a rainstorm, any other car would have hydroplaned off the road, my Catera just hung on like a tiger. It handled like a sports car. I took it in because I could smell anti-freeze and it turned out the cooling system that surrounds the engine had a leak. I traded it in and have regretted it ever since. I should have just put a little coolant in it once and awhile. I miss my car on a daily basis. The BOSE stereo, the quiet cabin, etc. I would buy another one if I could find a well kept one."

"this is my first car and it has been very nice driving it. It has great comfort and performance and with certain modifications to the engine (ex. K&N replacement filter) it really performs quite well."

"I bought this car from someone and I should've left it with him. I felt this was a bad decision on my part. But you win some and you lose some. I will take this as a lost and move on to the next car."
