Like floating on a cloud!

I love the smoothness of the ride, no noise and comfort to my body. So nice when I travel an hour to work one way and arrive stress free!

Big daddy Cadi

Cadillacs have always been my favorite. Excellent vehicle. If your thinking on buying one for your self, think no more. Just go do it. You won't be disappointed.

Dream Machine

This was my dream car. It is fun to drive and offers both snow and sport modes. It still looks new and not outdated - classic. The only reason I have to give her up is we need more room for both car seats and adults.

Super reliable performance car, 4dr Vette

Owned this car 6yrs, and cost of ownership is remarkable for a car with this performance. From the instantly warm heated seats, to the naturally aspirated 5.7L LS6 V8 power, my 4 door Vette is exhilarating everytime I drive it. It has been a summer and fall car mainly, never driven in the winter by me. Having the windows down, sunroof open, and listening to the growl of the exhaust never gets old.

Sadly, I think she ruined me for future Cadillacs

Although I really loved my car in the beginning (bought it used with low mileage about 7 years ago), the problems that began several years ago were just more than I wanted to handle. Started with the expensive tune ups ($500 plus) and headlamp replacements ($100). An oil change was normally about $80. Despite the care I took of it, a few years ago, the engine light came on. I needed a new catalytic converter. About a year ago, the shaking started. At low speeds and stops, it was so pronounced that I was embarrassed that others were no doubt able to see the car's movement and concerned about what the fix would be. Between this and the $100 a pop to replace belts, it was time to call it quits. When she was good, she was very, very good. But when she was bad.....she was horrid.

A great all around luxury sport car

I bought this car back in 2013 with 53,000 miles on it. It had one previous owner who drove is around 6800 miles a year and it has been a pleasure to own and drive. I've only replaced the usual parts and have never had any problems. Always got compliments on the car , fun to drive and handles the road and corners great.
