My first Cadillac
This car has been a dream to have. I have been through a lot of cars but this car takes the cake. I get a lot of offers from people to buy my car. it handles the road great. It's a eye catcher for sure. I've never seen a Catera like mine. Before purchasing this car Catera was the last thing on my mind to drive. When the salesman showed me the car and I test drove it I was in heaven. It have 62,000 miles on it in April of 2008 which sweetens the whole deal. Authentic Cadillac rag top. Maroon with 17" chrome Cadillac rims. Sunroof with OnStar. The only thing this car lacks is a spoiler they but if you ask me i think the spoiler lacks the car. I'm forever committed to Cadillacs. CTS-V HERE I COME!
Dont buy one new or used
Have had nothing but problems since Nov'98 when I purchased it. In the shop appox 30x you name it has broken GM gave me an extened warranty 75000 or 60 months to make up but. I wanted to trade it in after a year and a half but this thing was worth 1/3 of purchase price due to problems with them. Dealer I bought from didnt want it. I will never buy a Cadillac again.
read before you buy
well when we first looked at this car we thought...wow. We found a car that looks and drives like a dream for the right price...we were right but soon after we drove it hope the electric in this car went wacky, the headlight went out..$25. Then the brake lights stop working as well as the sunroof, cruise control and other small things
Oye, Cateras break down a lot!
Lets see, before 20k miles, New tires, 10 balances on the old tires, new breaks and rotors, 8 new window sensors, rear subframe was not bolted on from the factory (car drove sideways ate tires) which Cadillac was kind enough to make me pay for (12k miles). Car is rusting (again Cadillac is letting me pay for the fix). 5 different times the check engine lights came on. Puked radiator fluid allover my garage, (towed), puked tranny fluid in my garage (towed). Moon roof locks up pretty much all of the time, but I figured out how to reset it. I will never buy another Cadillac
Good performer.
So far, the Catera has not had one mechanical problem nor warranty repair save the key fob. The seats are comfortable and the controls are all within reach. The car is larger than others i looked at making it comfortable for four and luggage. It handles well though not razor sharp. The Goodyear RSA's are not adequate.
