Replaced A/C system @ 140K, upgraded to R134A and Replaced Transmission @ 155K.
This is really an awesome automobile considering what it is. It is not an exotic in any way, but holds it's own in terms of performance, reliability and comfort. This car has a surprising amount of performance. Acceleration and handling are very decent for a large car, braking is not too exciting, expect lots of nose-dive and longer stop times. The interior features tons of storage room and the seats are fantastic. My wife's car is a 1997 Seville STS and I really prefer the SSE for overall comfort. The OEM Stereo system is surprisingly great. I feel safe and comfortable while driving this car. It cruises happily at 90 MPH and will top out at considerably higher. Also, at reasonable highway speeds I get close to 30 MPG.
The evaluation should be written in a professional format such as used by automobile magazines, including using their performance ratings and standards. This would add credence to your site and to the individual evaluations. Patrons to this site may want professional advice and comments rather than those that could be gathered by their neighbors.
Well, actually, I don't want a bunch of ratings like in a magazine. I want a community survey-find out overall how well the car has done for the average person. You can't get nearly enough "neighbors" together to begin to get the overall opinion of drivers in America that you do on this website.
