"This car is a nightmare. I would not let my worst enemy drive this car! I dont even know where to start This car has many allignment issues, electrical and engine performance issues, as well as leaks of all sorts waiting to happen. This car is noutorius for failing smog and is not fuel efficient. the speed sensor "ebtcm" goes bad as well and is a nightmare to repair/ pay for repair. No matter what you do this car keeps giving trouble. Materials inside and out of car are of cheap material. Dont let the "leather" seats fool you. everything looks rubbery and plastic. Comfort = 0 . You feel like your in a shoe box. The suspension tends to go bad and ride is very rough with slightest bump. I could go on and on much more of the frustrations i have had with this car. Got rid of it at the junker not too long, best decision I made!. I see these cars in the junk yard very often and certainley not suprised."

"I bought this car mainly because I am tired of being in debt. I sold my truck, paid off the bank and bought this 13 yr old car outright. I now have no debt. If I am lucky this car will last at least a year or two. Long enough to save up some money to buy a better vehicle outright. Tired of be in debt to the banks."

"I bought my 98 Catera brand New in Octyober of 98. Leased it. Car was awesome, never had a problem with the vehicle. Caddy dealer was great, service was done by them with a loaner. Only complaint, is that it could have used another 50 hp under the hood. I knew going in, but where can you go fast anymore anyway. Cruised at 90 no problem. Stereo was a Bose and was mind deafining. Chicago winters? no problem went through the snow without a hitch. I was sad to turn this vehicle in, but needed an SUV for kids."

"Okay, It's not the sharpest looking Cadi I've ever owned (on my fourth one now) but it performs as well as the V8's did on my Deville, Seville, and almost as good as my STS. It's an excellent in town traffic car and all I have to say on the hiway is "It's a Cadillac!"; it glides down the road at any speed effortlessly and passes without a glitch. Very strong transmission and passing power is the usual Cadillac standard - leaves everyone behind. This is a very solid, safe feeling car. It's heavy for its size but seriously handles like a much lighter car. It has all the usual bells and whistles one expects from a Cadillac product and the interior wraps you in leather and high quality materials. By comparison, I also have 2 other cars and when I want a comfortable, powerful ride, I hop in the Cadi. Bought mine used with just under 60K on it and have driven it for 2 years without any problems - I've only replaced the battery and obviously that's not a mechanical problem. Gas mileage is a standard 20+ MPG but considering what you pay for these awsome cars used, do the math and you come out way ahead of the game! I'll probably pass this one on to my teenager because I feel VERY safe in it and it's been reliable."
