2000 Cadillac Seville 4 Dr SLS Sedan

Review

From the day that I purchased this car, I knew that I would like it. It drives well, and although I had early problems with it, lately it has performed very well and I have had only minor problems with it. I think the style is great, the sound system is excellent, and the comfort is off the charts. It rides very smoothly up to about 65 miles an hour, but I believe that there is a problem with the springs on all of the 2000 models where it becomes noticeably shaky until about 80 mph. The size isn't what I was hoping it to be. It's very roomy, don't get me wrong, but now that I think about it, it is a little bit big for my needs. The gas mileage isn't so great, but that isn't too important to me.

Favorite Features

The ride, interior features, and its performance.

Suggested Improvements

The ride from 65-80 mph, the problems early on with the car, and the size. It would be nice if it was a little bit smaller.

2000 Cadillac Seville 4 Dr STS Sedan

Review

This has been a great vehicle. We traded our 1998 STS for a 2000 STS with low miles because of the infamous oil leak on the '98. That problem was expensive to repair, $3,000 - $4,000. We bought this one used with a warranty because we just enjoy this car! It has been great for a 2000 model. It has no squeaks, no mechanical issues, and still runs like the day we first got 'er.

Favorite Features

The body style, fit, and finish. It has a great sound system and 300 horsepower.

Suggested Improvements

I think they could do a better job on the paint though. It is a little too orange peelish for a car which rolls off the line at $50,000. Buy really good tires for improved handling and quietness of ride.

Review

I'm a car nut, and was in search of a lower cost high comfort second car. (wife's Toyotoa Highlander was too small for me on road trips). I have put nearly 7,500 miles on this car in three months. I considered a used Lexus, Buick, BMW 700L, and Jaguar. This Cadi rocks, the BMW's interiors didn't age well (all cars wer 4-6 years old). Lots of broken stuff. this was the same for the Audi A8. This Cadillac's only problems are seat heaters (front) and a brake sensor fix for $65! Take that German cars. I never thought I would drive a Cadi, but I can not fault this car, I would buy another in a moment! I get 28 MPG on highway and nearly 20 city! My Olds Alero only got 18 MPG in the city.

Favorite Features

I love the seats, steering wheel adjustment, and perfectly functioning climate control with rear blower for the kids. I drove from Indiana to Florida and back and never charged the climate settings driving in 80 - 101 degree weather, we were cool as cucumbers!

Suggested Improvements

Not much to fault it on, I never would pay $52,000 for a new one, glad someone did. I supose someone just bought the 2006 SLS or DTS I may be driving in four years?

2000 Cadillac Seville 4 Dr STS Sedan

Review

The STS is beautiful to look at, comfortable to drive, and you couldn't ask for more speed. However, the handling leaves a lot to be desired - I've driven trucks that corner better. But, the worst feature of the car is it's absolute lack of reliability. The car is in for service several times each year. Some items have been repaired multiple times. The problems are both mechanical and electrical.

Favorite Features

Highway performance and comfortable interior.

Suggested Improvements

Build things correctly so that they don't break down.

2000 Cadillac Seville 4 Dr STS Sedan

Review

Love the STS. I would change the styling of the interior toward a more ergonomicly friendly center console. Also, the drink holder is less than adequate. I love the performance and the styling, this is my fifth Cadillac, three of which have been the STS model. I will look at the new STS-V when it comes out leter this year. Bring on the German and Japanese luxury cars, so they can go home with their tails between their legs. American engineeing is kicking butt with the STS-V and is ready to take on any challengers in the luxury sedan venue. I have owned Mercedes, Lincoln, Lexus, and BMW and the only one that comes close is the Lexus.

Favorite Features

The styling and performance.

Suggested Improvements

Improve the center console.

2000 Cadillac Seville 4 Dr STS Sedan

Review

The 2000 Cadillac Seville STS has a lithe, supple ride and handles very well. It gets up to 25 mpg. At 80,000 miles, the only non-scheduled maintenance that I have performed was the installation of a new abs system and a fuel pressure regulator.

Favorite Features

The powerful motor.

Suggested Improvements

Fix the fact that this is a car that is known for consuming oil.

Review

This is a fantastic vehicle. Bought used but low miles and in perfect condition. Power, Styling, Comfort, and features are world class and exceeded my expectations. Seems to be holding value very well relative to miles ( key is to keep miles on low average side ). Was disappointed with life of OEM Goodyear Eagles, just put new set of Bridgestone Turanzas' on, can already tell difference in handling. If you can find a STS 2-3 years old with less than 30k mileage, BUY IT ! great car at half price of new.

Favorite Features

Power - 4.6L Northstar is as advertised and then some. Comfort & Styling - Beautiful & Fun. Bells & Whistles - got'm all !

Suggested Improvements

The lower valance on front bumper is susceptible to bug/rock chips .. Cadillac needs to use a stronger type paint in this area.

Review

I purchased this vehicle as a "Sunday" car. Not a work vehicle or drive the kids to school vehicle. My first drive on the highyway worried me, because it had a slight vibration. I returned it for repairs, 4 tires corrected the problem(end of the year purchase. Sitting for a year without driving, flatten the tires somewhat) It gets great gas mileage, 3 mpg better than my Mitsubishi Sigma V6. This is also driving without trying to get gas mileage, in the 70 to 80 mph range, and when you want to pass, step on the gas and pass. Everything works. The car is dead quiet on the road, no rattles or creeks. Very enjoyable.

Favorite Features

The power is great. The "Traction Control" is fun to play with in the rain from stop lights, with no passengers. It works best if you leave it in the "ON" position. The stereo is great! The most favorite is the feeling I have when I'm in this car. I think it came standard.

Suggested Improvements

I know I don't drive it often, but when I do, it is just undescribable. I honestly don't see any improvement areas in the car. I suppose it could brush my teeth and comb my hair for me.

THIS IS ONE THE BEST LUXURY CRUISERS I'VE DRIVEN. I BELIEVE CADILLAC HAS HAD A WRONGLY DESERVED BAD WRAP FOR YEARS AMONG THE YUPPY CROWD. PERFORMANCE, MILEAGE AND COMFORT ARE EXCELLENT, AND NO PROBLEMS.

Favorite Features

LOOKS, COMFORT, PERFORMANCE AND MILEAGE. (29-30 CRUISING)

2000 Cadillac Seville 4 Dr STS Sedan

Review

I bought this car with 70000 miles on it. I have driven it hard for two years and it now has 112895 miles. Not a damn problem. She is a beauty, she a has a great body and boy does she have a personality. I previously had a 96 STS and was some what let down with its somewhat fair build quality. BUT, now I am convinced that CADDY has changed And I will be buying more RELIABLE cars from Caddy and so should you.

Favorite Features

The engine, will last 200000 miles, The The saftey of the car, the traction control, and stability control, and the suprizingly good gas mileage.

Suggested Improvements

IF they reduce the weight of their cars they would be even faster.
