1988 Cadillac Seville sedan review from North America
"Good looks, good performance, good car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radiator had crack in the tank.
I slammed on the transmission on a regular basis and it finally gave out.
Small things like paint coming off, trim coming off.
Leather is worn.
General comments?
Very nice car. Shines up very nice.
Besides the listed problems, the car is very reliable. I live in Vermont where it can reach -40, but the car always starts!
Like I said, I pounded on this car and nothing really broke except the transmission, which makes sense I guess.
I put a flowmaster exhaust on her, with a K&N filter kit. Will smoke most of those idiot ricers!
