2002 Cadillac Seville SLS review from North America
"Shamelessly opulent, gloriously appointed, a high-performance thoroughbred through and through"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
This car has been flawless, no problems whatsoever.
General comments?
I have had zero issues with my 2002 Cadillac Seville SRS. The car is absolutely flawless in every way. It's just awesome.
My SRS is on the highway five days a week, about 40 miles each way. If you are looking for a smooth riding vehicle, this is it. Handling and cornering are effortless, even in rain -- the Stabilitrak and traction control on this vehicle absolutely lives up to the hype. The computer-assisted rack and pinion steering automatically adjusts for speed and driving style, and if you've never experienced this, you're in for a treat. Smooth with a capital "S".
I did see a review here about someone who apparently had a lemon, my sympathies go out. They clearly have totally missed out on how beautiful these cars drive when they are in good shape.
This car is FAST. The 275 horse Northstar engine will absolutely throw you back in your seat, even at seventy or eighty miles per hour when passing. The engine wants to run, it does not like to be babied at all. Reliability has been very, very good for this particular car, I've had no problems at all with the motor.
I love this car, and I'll keep it forever or until the wheels fall off. I've driven more expensive sedans, but this car is the real deal. Just AWESOME. Get one, you'll see. ;)
